A horizontal force of 140 N is needed to pull a 60kg box across the horizontal floor at constant speed . Find the coefficient of

friction between the floor and box to three significant figures.​
Physics

____ [38]2 years ago
4 0

Explanation:

formula for force is:

force=mass × acceleration

but in case of friction

force =coefficient of friction × Normal Reaction

F. = u × R

U = F/R

but when placed horizontally

R= M×G

M=mass=60kg

G=Gravity(10m/s or 9.8m/s)

F=140N

U=140/60×10

U=140/600

U=0.2333333333

approximately to 3 significant figures

U=0.233

if i am correct rate it 5 star

Name TWO WEAKNESSES of the model pictured below
Nikolay [14]

Answer:

Here are a few:

1) The orbital radius of these planets is ridiculously small an in no way representative of their actual radii.

2) The planets will only line up like that once every 5200 years, making this very unrepresentative of their usual relations - although this does make their order in distance from the sun.

3) The nebulae, comet, lens flare,  and other junk in the background is incorrect.

4) If this is meant as a representation of the planets, then Pluto should not be there as it is now considered a planetoid.

5) The planets are incorrectly scaled both to each other and to the sun.

How much work is done when a hoist lifts a 210-kg rock to a height of 3 m? (Use 9.8 m/s2 for the acceleration due to gravity.)
Aleksandr [31]

Work done to lift the rock is 6174 Joule.

To find the answer, we need to know about the work done.

<h3>What's the work done?</h3>

Mathematically, work done = force × distance

<h3>What's the gravitational force acts on the stone here?</h3>

The gravitational force on the stone = mg

= 210× 9.8= 2058N

<h3>What's the work done to lift the stone?</h3>

Work done= 2058× 3

= 6174 Joule

Thus, we can conclude that the work done to lift the stone is 6174 Joule.

What is newton's second law<br>also give example​
neonofarm [45]

\textbf{Question:-}

What is newton's second law of motion?Also give example.

\textbf{Answer:-}

<u>Definition</u>:-

Newton's Second Law of motion states that the rate of change of momentum of an object is proportional to the applied unbalanced force in the direction of the force. ie., <u>F=ma</u>.

<u>Examples:-</u>

  • When you are kicking a ball, you are increasing the speed by applying force to it. Therefore,it accelerates.
  • If you use the same force to push a truck and push a car, the car will have more acceleration than the truck.

Derivation:-

For a body of mass 'm' , whose velocity changes from u to v in time t, when Force 'F' is applied.

=>Force∝Change in momentum/Time

=>F∝mv-mu/t

=>F∝m(v-u)/t

=>F∝ma

=>F=kma(a=v-u/t)

=>F=ma(Since k=constant=1)

An object is thrown horizontally off a cliff with an initial velocity of 5.0 meters per second. the object strikes the ground 3

1. If you add air to a flat tire through a single small entry hole, why does the air spread out to fill the tire?
ikadub [295]

Answer:

The tire fills up just like anything else that holds air when u pump a ball or tire up it fills all the way up cause it is a small confined space and after filling it with air the atoms of the air fill the tire up
