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]1 year 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

When a pitcher is throwing a ball, is he applying positive or negative work to the ball?
Romashka [77]
A.Positive as work=force×distance (assuming that distance is always a constant) the work will always be positive as the force is always positive(this is because force=mass×acceleration where the acceleration is always positive unless the mass is being slowed down)

Is kinetic energy scalar quantity
VashaNatasha [74]

Yes, Kinetic Energy is a scalar quantity because the direction is not needed.  A scalar quantity is one dimensional measurement.

Explanation:

  • Kinetic Energy is a scalar quantity that means it has only a magnitude and no direction.
  • Energy has a size but no direction; two objects can have the same kinetic energy but they travel in opposite directions.
  • The formula of Kinetic Energy is
  1. K.E = \frac{1}{2} mv^{2}
  • Mass is a scalar quantity and velocity is a vector quantity.
  • squaring velocity will make vector to scalar quantity.

Pepsi [2]
The answer is B. Domain
When the atoms point to the same direction and aligned with one another, It will form a magnetic material in which  magnetization is in a uniform direction
This alignment usually happens stimunaleously  due to exchange interaction that caused by a response to an external field.
