Answer:
i wanna say tranverse if not surface
Explanation:
Answer:
Explanation:
mass of refrigerator, m = 110 kg
coefficient of static friction, μs = 0.85
coefficient of kinetic friction, μk = 0.59
(a) the minimum force required to just start the motion in refrigerator
F = μs x mg
F = 0.85 x 110 x 9.8
F = 916.3 N
(b) The force required to move the refrigerator with constant speed
F' = μk x mg
F' = 0.59 x 110 x 9.8
F' = 636.02 N
(c) Let a be the acceleration.
Net force = Applied force - friction force
F net = 950 - 636.02
F net = 313.98 N
a = F net / mass
a = 313.98 / 110
a = 2.85 m/s²
To solve this problem we will apply the principles of energy conservation. On the one hand we have that the work done by the non-conservative force is equivalent to -30J while the work done by the conservative force is 50J.
This leads to the direct conclusion that the resulting energy is 20J.
The conservative force is linked to the movement caused by the sum of the two energies, therefore there is an increase in kinetic energy. The decrease in the mechanical energy of the system is directly due to the loss given by the non-conservative force, therefore there is a decrease in mechanical energy.
Therefore the correct answer is A. Kintetic energy increases and mechanical energy decreases.
