Because a Btu is so small, energy is usually measured in millions of Btus. 1 Btu = the amount of energy required to increase the temperature of one pound of water (which is equivalent to one pint) by one degree Fahrenheit. This is roughly the heat produced from burning one match.

The strength of electric field E is 17 N / C.
<u />
<u>Explanation:</u>
Electric field strength is defined as the force per unit charge acting at a point in the given field. The equation for the strength of the electric field is given by
E = F / q
where E represents the electric field strength,
F represents the force in newton,
q represents the charge in coulomb.
Given the charge q = 0.30 coulombs
force F = 5.0 N
Electric field strength E = force / charge
= 5.0 / 0.30
E = 16.66 = 17 N / C.
Explanation:
Pressure is the physical quantity having formula force per unit area.
Answer: µ=0.205
Explanation:
The horizontal forces acting on the ladder are the friction(f) at the floor and the normal force (Fw) at the wall. For horizontal equilibrium,
f=Fw
The sum of the moments about the base of the ladder Is 0
ΣM = 0 = Fw*L*sin74.3º - (25.8kg*(L/2) + 67.08kg*0.82L)*cos74.3º*9.8m/s²
Note that it doesn't matter WHAT the length of the ladder is -- it cancels.
Solve this for Fw.
0= 0.9637FwL - (67.91L)2.652
Fw=180.1/0.9637
Fw=186.87N
f=186.81N
Since Fw=f
We know Fw, so we know f.
But f = µ*Fn
where Fn is the normal force at the floor --
Fn = (25.8 + 67.08)kg * 9.8m/s² =
910.22N
so
µ = f / Fn
186.81/910.22
µ= 0.205
