Answer:

0.255

Explanation:

The following data were obtained from the question:

Force (F) = 57 N

Mass (m) = 22.8 Kg

Coefficient of static friction (µ) =...?

Next, we shall determine the normal reaction (R). This is illustrated below:

Mass (m) = 22.8 Kg

Acceleration due to gravity (g) = 9.8 m/s²

Normal reaction (R) =?

R = mg

R = 22.8 x 9.8

R = 223.44 N

Finally, we can obtain the coefficient of static friction (µ) as follow:

Force (F) = 57 N

Normal reaction (R) = 223.44 N

Coefficient of static friction (µ) =...?

F = µR

57 = µ x 223.44

Divide both side by 223.44

µ = 57/223.44

µ = 0.255

Therefore, the coefficient of static friction (µ) is 0.255.

What is the final speed of a 60 kg boulder dropped from a 111 meter cliff
saveliy_v [14]

After rolling off the edge of the cliff and falling ' M ' meters down,
the speed of the boulder is

       Square root of ( 19.6 M ) .

If M=111 meters, then the speed is <em>46.64 meters per second</em>.

We have known for roughly 500 years that if there's no air resistance,
the mass of the falling object makes no difference, and all objects fall
with the same acceleration, speed, time to splat, etc.
