Answer: 0.62
Explanation:
Coefficient of friction is defined as the ratio of the moving force (Fm) acting on a body to the normal reaction (R).
Note that the normal reaction acts vertically on the object and is equal to the objects weight (W) i.e W=R
Since W = mg, W = 38.4 ×10
W= 384N =R
Normal reaction = 384N
The horizontal force acting on the body will be the moving force which is 238N
Coefficient of friction = Fm/R
Coefficient of friction = 238/384
Coefficient of friction = 0.62
Therefore, coefficient of kinetic friction between the box and the floor is 0.62
It is called surface tension it is the elastic personality of some liquids as they pull together to take up as little surface area as possible. the water molecules would rather stay together than be pulled apart<span />
Answer:
The magnitude of the force that the 6.3 kg block exerts on the 4.3 kg block is approximately 41.9 N
Explanation:
Forces on block 4.3 kg are:
63N to the right and R21 (contact force from the 6.3 kg block) to the left
Net force on 4.3 kg block is: 63 N - R21
Forces on the 6.3 kg block are:
R12 to the right (contact force from the 4.3 kg block) and 11 N to the left.
So net force on the 6.3 kg block is: R12 - 11 N
According to the action-reaction principle the contact forces R21 and R12 must be equal in magnitude (let's call them simply "R").
Then, since the blocks are moving with the SAME acceleration, we equal their accelerations:
a1 = (63 N - R)/4.3 = (R - 11 N)/6.3 = a2
solve for R by cross multiplication
6.3 (63 - R) = 4.3 (R - 11)
396.9 - 6.3 R = 4.3 R - 47.3
369.9 + 47.3 = 10.6 R
444.2 = 10.6 R
R = 444.2 / 10.6
R = 41.90 N
