7 0

Answer:

The mass of the box:

m =  60 kg

Explanation:

Given:

F = 150 N

g = 10 m/s²

_________

m - ?

Coefficient of friction wood on wood:

μ = 0.25

Friction force:

F₁ = μ*m*g

Newton's Third Law:

F = F₁

F = μ*m*g

The mass of the box:

m = F / ( μ*g) = 150 / (0.25*10) =  60 kg

If a 12 kg cat is sitting 5 m up in a tree, how much PE does it have?
Helen [10]

Answer:

588 J

Explanation:

PE (potential energy) = (mass) x (gravity) x (height)

mass = 12 kg

gravity = 9.8m/s^2

height = 5 m

PE = (12) x (9.8) x (5) = 588 J (Joules)
