The formula is Force = coefficient of friction times the weight or normal force (in newtons). Plug the numbers in the formula. Do the simple division math. The coefficient of friction should be any number between 0 and 1. If your answer is smaller than 0 or greater than 1, go back and check your work. The answer for this question is C. 0.38

Answer:

\mu_k = 0.38

Explanation:

As we know that the normal force on the book is given as

F_n = 51.7 N

also the force required to push the book on the table is given as

F_f = 19.5 N

now by the formula of friction force we know that

F_f = \mu_k F_n

now plug in all values in it

19.5 = \mu_k (51.7)

here we will have

\mu_k = \frac{19.5}{51.7}

\mu_k = 0.38

You are designing a simple elevator system for an old warehouse that is being converted to loft apartments. A 22,500-N elevator
ICE Princess25 [194]

Answer:

A) mass = 3121.58 kg

B) tension = 25940.37 N

C) tension = 25940.37 N (tension on both sides will be the same)

Explanation:

Weight of elevator = 22500 N

Distance = 6.75 m

Time = 3 sec

Since it started from rest, initial speed is zero.

Using Newton's equation of motion we have,

S = ut + 0.5at^2

S = distance covered = 6.75 m

t = time = 3 s

a = acceleration upwards

u = initial velocity = 0

Substituting values, we have,

6.75 = 0(3) + (0.5 x a x 3^2)

6.75 = 4.5a

a = 6.75/4.5 = 1.5 m/s^2 (acceleration of the elevator upwards)

Mass of the elevator = Weight/g

Where g = acceleration due to gravity 9.81 m/s

Mass = 22500/9.81 = 2293.58 kg

From the image below we solve from

T - 22500 = ma

T - 22500 = 2293.58 x 1.5

T - 22500 = 3440.37

T = 3440.37 + 22500 = 25940.37 N (this is the tension on the rope)

On the other side,

mg - T = ma

9.81m - 25940.37 = 1.5m

(9.81 - 1.5)m = 25940.37

8.31m = 25940.37

m = 3121.58 kg (mass of counter weight)

See image below

Which method can be used for separating a mixture of sand and salt?
Veronika [31]
Answers A and C can be automatically eliminated because evaporation has to do with the water cycle and magnetism has to do with electric current and such. Next we can eliminate B or distillation because it also has to do with water/liquids. Therefore, the answer is D or filtration because it is the only answer left.

I hope this helps!

The musical tone a piano has a frequency of 346HZ and a wavelength of 1.3 M what is the speed of the sound
prohojiy [21]

Answer:

v= 449.8 m/s

Explanation:

Given data

Frequency=  346Hz

Wave length= 1.4m

The expression below is used to find the speed

v= f \lambda\\\\

substitute

v= 346*1.3\\\\v= 449.8 m/s

Hence the speed is v= 449.8 m/s
