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

the ocean floor is, on average, 4267 m below sea level. What is the pressure in the atmosphere at this depth?
hichkok12 [17]
The pressure at the depth h in the ocean is given by (Stevin's law)
p= p_0 + \rho g h
where
p_0 = 1.0 \cdot 10^5 Pa is the atmospheric pressure
and \rho g h is the pressure exerted by the column of water of height h=4267 m, with \rho = 1000 kg/m^3 being the water density and g=9.81 m/s^2.
Substituting, we find
p=1.0 \cdot 10^5 Pa + (1000 kg/m^3)(9.81 m/s^2)(4267 m)=4.20 \cdot 10^7 Pa
We want to convert this into atmospheres: we know that 1 atm corresponds to the atmospheric pressure at sea level, so 1 atm=1.0\cdot 10^5 Pa, therefore we just need to divide by this number:
p= \frac{4.20 \cdot 10^7 Pa}{1.0 \cdot 10^5 Pa/atm} =420 atm

a 15 kg tv sots on a shelf at a height of 0.3 m. how much gravitational potential energy is added to the television when it is l
nata0808 [166]
Gravitational potential energy can be described as m*g*h (mass times gravity times height).

Originally,
15kg * 9.8m/s^2 *0.3 m = 44.1 kg*m^2/s^2 = 44.1 Joules.

After it is moved to a 1m shelf:
15kg * 9.8m/s * 1 = 147 kg*m^2/s^2= 147 Joules.

To find how much energy was added, we subtract final energy from initial energy:

147 J - 44.1 J = 102.9 Joules.
