(i) a force of 35.0 n is required to start a 6.0-kg box moving across a horizontal concrete floor, (a) what is the coefficient o

f static friction between the box and the floor? (b) if the 35.0-n force continues, the box accelerates at 0.60 m/s2. what is the coefficient of kinetic friction?

a. The force applied would be equal to the frictional force.

F = us Fn

where, F = applied force = 35 N, us = coeff of static friction, Fn = normal force = weight

 

35 N = us * (6 kg * 9.81 m/s^2)

us = 0.595

 

b. The force applied would now be the sum of the frictional force and force due to acceleration

F = uk Fn + m a

where, uk = coeff of kinetic friction

 

35 N = uk * (6 kg * 9.81 m/s^2) + (6kg * 0.60 m/s^2)

uk = 0.533

What are possible units for impulse? Check all that apply.
Neporo4naja [7]

Units of impulse: N • s, kg • meters per second

Explanation:

Impulse is defined in two ways:

1)

Impulse is defined as the product between the force exerted in a collision and the duration of the collision:

I=F\Delta t

where

F is the force

\Delta t is the time interval

Since the force is measured in Newtons (N) and the time is measured in seconds (s), the units for the impulse are

[I] = [N][s]

So,

N • s

2)

Impulse is also defined as the change in momentum experienced by an object:

I=\Delta p

where the change in momentum is given by

\Delta p = m\Delta v

where m is the mass and \Delta v is the change in velocity.

The mass is measured in kilograms (kg) while the change in velocity is measured in metres per second (m/s), therefore the units for impulse are

[I]=[kg][m/s]

so,

kg • meters per second

Find the energy in Joules required to lift a 55.0 Megagram object a distance of 500 cm.
fredd [130]

Energy to lift something =

               (mass of the object) x (gravity) x (height of the lift).

BUT ...

This simple formula only works if you use the right units.

Mass . . . kilograms
Gravity . . . meters/second²
Height . . . meters

For this question . . .

Mass = 55 megagram = 5.5 x 10⁷ grams = 5.5 x 10⁴ kilograms

Gravity (on Earth) = 9.8 m/second²

Height = 500 cm  =  5.0 meters

So we have ...

Energy = (5.5 x 10⁴ kilogram) x (9.8 m/s²) x (5 m)

            =  2,696,925 joules .

That's quite a large amount of energy ... equivalent to
straining at the rate of 1 horsepower for almost exactly an
hour, or burning a 100 watt light bulb for about 7-1/2 hours.

The reason is the large mass that's being lifted.
On Earth, that much mass weighs about 61 tons.

Which best describes a major characteristic of both volcanoes and earthquakes? they are centered at the poles?
Arturiano [62]
<span>A major characteristic of both volcanoes and earthquakes is that they are located in the same geographic area. Most earthquakes are along the edges of tectonic plates. This is where most volcanoes are too. Most earthquakes directly beneath a volcano are caused by the movement of magma.</span>
