There are some missing data in the text of the problem. I've found them online:
a) coefficient of friction dry steel piston - steel cilinder: 0.3
b) coefficient of friction with oil in between the surfaces: 0.03

Solution:
a) The force F applied by the person (300 N) must be at least equal to the frictional force, given by:
F_f = \mu N
where \mu is the coefficient of friction, while N is the normal force. So we have:
F=\mu N
since we know that F=300 N and \mu=0.3, we can find N, the magnitude of the normal force:
N= \frac{F}{\mu}= \frac{300 N}{0.3}=1000 N

b) The problem is identical to that of the first part; however, this time the coefficienct of friction is \mu=0.03 due to the presence of the oil. Therefore, we have:
N= \frac{F}{\mu}= \frac{300 N}{0.03}=10000 N

What are 4 physical properties for the bear
Pie

Answer:

A bear normally has a short, thick neck, a rounded head, a pointed muzzle, short ears, and small eyes. Some species have round faces. Bears have poor eyesight, and most have only fair hearing.

Explanation:

Modern Bears are characterized with large body and stocky legs, a long snout, shaggy hair, plantigrade paws with five non-retractile claws and a short tail.

Grizzly bears (Ursus arctos horribilis) have concave faces, a distinctive hump on their shoulders, and long claws about two to four inches long. Both the hump and the claws are traits associated with a grizzly bear's exceptional digging ability. Grizzlies are often dark brown, but can vary from blonde to nearly black.

The brown bear has a slight hump above its shoulder, round ears, a long snout and big paws with long, curved claws that it uses for digging. Unlike the black bear, it can't climb trees. It can weigh between 350-1,500 pounds. When standing on its hind legs it can be up to 5 feet tall.

Hope this helps     :)

(I didn't know which type of bear so i did brown bear and grizzly bear)

How is velocity and instantaneous speed alike
allsm [11]
<span>velocity is defined as the rate of change of displacement irrespective of the length of the path travelled while speed is the average rate of covering distance. but in the liming case where the instantaneous velocity is given as v=dx/dt where dx is the small displacement in a small interval dt, both the speed and velocity have the same magnitude and the direction of velocity is the direction of the tangent to the corresponding displacement-time curve.</span>
