The shortest distance over which a car moving at 33.6 m/s may be stopped by locking the brakes is  61.93 m

The kinetic friction coefficient is 0.93.

using N, where N is the normal reaction = mg, frictional force can be evaluated.

Fr =- 0.93 x 9.8 = -9.114 m/s²

Friction, which takes the form of a decelerating force, helps the car come to a stop.

This frictional force equals the ma force, 

where ma = 7.84 m and a = 7.84 m/s2.

However, this acceleration is negative at 7.84 m/s2 since it is decelerating.

So, using the equations of motion,

v² = u² + 2ax

where;

v = final velocity

u = initial velocity

a = acceleration

0 = 33.6² + 2(-9.114)x

0 = 1128.96 - 18.228x

18.228x = 1128.96

x = 1128.96/18.228

x = 61.93 m

Therefore, the shortest distance is 61.93 m

When Bella pushes a box with a mass of 5.25 kilograms with a force of 15.75 newtons, it accelerates at a rate of 2.5 meters/seco
Mariana [72]

Sure !

Start with Newton's second law of motion:

                     Net Force = (mass) x (acceleration) .

This formula is so useful, and so easy, that you really
should memorize it.

Now, watch:

The mass of the box is 5.25 kilograms, and the box is
accelerating at the rate of  2.5 m/s² .
What's the net force on the box ?

                    Net Force = (mass) x (acceleration)

                                     = (5.25 kilograms) x (2.5 m/s²)

                     Net force =       13.125 newtons .

But hold up, hee haw, whoa !  Wait a second !
Bella is pushing with a force of 15.75 newtons, but the box
is accelerating as if the force on it is only 13.125 newtons.
What happened to the rest of Bella's force ? ?

==>  Friction is pushing the box in the opposite direction,
and cancelling some of Bella's force.

How much ?

            (Bella's 15.75 newtons) minus (13.125 that the box feels)

           =      2.625 newtons backwards, applied by friction.

Why do planets rings surround them and not the sun
Shalnov [3]

Well, the rings surrounding a planet are made out of rock. A ring surrounding the sun would be impossible since the sun can reach more than 27 million degrees Fahrenheit (15 million degrees Celsius.)

Hope this helped.
