The frictional force of an object is the product of the normal force and coefficient of kinetic friction. Here the frictional force acting on the object  is 16.4 N.

<h3>What is frictional force?</h3>

Frictional force is a kind of force acting on a body to resist it from motion. Thus, the direction of the force will be in negative with the magnitude. Frictional force is the product of coefficient of friction and the normal force.

The normal  force acting on the object of mass 4.2 Kg is N = mg

N = 4.2 Kg × 9.8 m/s² = 41.16 N

Frictional force = ц N

                         = 0.40 × 41.16 N

                         = 16.4 N.

Therefore, the frictional force acting between the surface of the object and the floor is 16.4 N

Your question is incomplete. But your complete question probably was:

The coefficient of kinetic friction between an object and the surface upon which it is sliding is 0.40 the weight of the object is 4.2 kg. What is the frictional force of the object?

You can keep a 1kg apple from falling to the ground by placing it on a table. What reaction force is resisting the force of the
Gnom [1K]

The equilibrium condition allows finding the correct answer for the force that is resisting the weight of the apple is:

        3. Normal force

Newton's second law gives the relationship between <em>force, mass</em> and acceleration of bodies, in the special case that the acceleration is is called the equilibrium condition.

            ∑ F = 0

Where F is the external force.

The free body diagram is a diagram of the forces on bodies without the details of the shape of the body, in the attached we can see a scheme of the forces.

Let's write the equilibrium condition for the apple

          N - W = 0

          N = W

.

We can see that the only forces acting on the apple are its weights and reaction from the table called Normal.

Let's analyze the different answers:

1. False. The apple is not moving therefore the resistance is zero

2. False. The apple is not moving  so friction it with the table is  

3. True. The free-body diagram shows that the normal and the weight are equal

4. False. There is nothing to pull the apple so there is no tension

5. False. Gravity is the weight of the apple that is applied to the table, not from the table to the apple.

In conclusion using the equilibrium condition we can find the correct result for the force that is resisting the weight of the apple is:

        3. Normal force

Which option is a force?<br> O A. Mass<br> O B. Velocity<br> O C. Acceleration<br> O D. Weight
olga_2 [115]

Answer:

Weight is a force.

Explanation:

Force acting on an object is defined in terms of mass and its acceleration. Its mathematical force is given by

F = ma

Weight of an object is force that the Earth exerts on an object. It can be given by the formula as follows :

W = mg

g is acceleration due to gravity on the surface of earth

Hence, the correct option is (d).

Two black holes (the remains of exploded stars), separated by a distance of
jolli1 [7]

The largest mass is 4.7 x 10³⁰ kg and the smallest mass is 5 x 10²⁹ kg.

The given parameters;

  • <em>distance between the two black holes, r = 10 AU = 1.5 x 10¹² m</em>
  • <em>gravitational force between the two black holes, F = 6.9 x 10²⁵ N.</em>
  • <em>combined mass of the two black holes = 5.20 x 10³⁰ kg</em>

The product of the two masses is calculated from Newton's law of universal gravitational as follows;

F = \frac{Gm_1m_2}{r^2} \\\\m_1m_2 = \frac{Fr^2}{G} \\\\m_1m_2 = \frac{(6.9\times 10^{25}) \times (1.5\times 10^{12})^2}{6.67\times 10^{-11}} \\\\m_1m_2 = 2.328 \times 10^{60} \ kg^2

The sum of the two masses is given as;

m₁ + m₂ = 5.2 x 10³⁰ kg

m₂ = 5.2 x 10³⁰ kg - m₁

The first mass is calculated as follows;

m₁(5.2 x 10³⁰ - m₁) = 2.328 x 10⁶⁰

5.2 x 10³⁰m₁ - m₁² = 2.328 x 10⁶⁰

m₁² - 5.2 x 10³⁰m₁  + 2.328 x 10⁶⁰ = 0

<em>solve the quadratic equation using formula method</em>;

a = 1, b =-  5.2 x 10³⁰, c = 2.328 x 10⁶⁰

m_1 = \frac{-b \ \ +/- \ \ \sqrt{b^2 - 4ac} }{2a} \\\\m_1 = \frac{-(-5.2\times 10^{20})  \ \ +/- \ \ \sqrt{(-5.2\times 10^{20})^2 - 4(1\times 2.328\times 10^{60})} }{2(1)} \\\\m_1 = 4.7 \times 10^{30} \ kg \ \ or \ \ 4.9 \times 10^{29} \ kg

The second mass is calculated as follows;

m₂ = 5.2 x 10³⁰ kg - m₁

m₂ = 5.2 x 10³⁰ kg  -  4.7 x 10³⁰ kg

m₂ = 5 x 10²⁹ kg

or

m₂ = 5.2 x 10³⁰ kg  -  4.9 x 10²⁹ kg

m₂ = 4.7 x 10³⁰ kg

Thus, the largest mass is 4.7 x 10³⁰ kg and the smallest mass is 5 x 10²⁹ kg.
