disa [49]
I think the correct answer from the choices listed above is option D. The types of heat transfer that allows heat to flow from hot objects to colder object are <span>convection and conduction, but not radiation. Convection and conduction heat transfer happens only when a medium is present while radiation do not need a radiation to occur.</span>

A person pushes horizontally with a force of 220. N on a 61.0 kg crate to move it across a level floor. The coefficient of kinet
Ede4ka [16]

Answer:

(a) 161.57 N

(b) 0.958 m/s^2

Explanation:

Force applied, F = 220 N

mass of crate, m = 61 kg

μ = 0.27

(a) The magnitude of the frictional force,

f = μ N

where, N is the normal reaction

N = m x g = 61 x 9.81 = 598.41 N

So, the frictional force, f = 0.27 x 598.41

f = 161.57 N

(b) Let a be the acceleration of the crate.

Fnet = F - f = 220 - 161.57

Fnet = 58.43 N

According to newton's second law

Fnet = mass x acceleration

58.43 = 61 x a

a = 0.958 m/s^2

Thus, the acceleration of the crate is 0.958 m/s^2.

What are conductors and insulators? Give at least five example of each ​
Leona [35]

Answer: conductors are substances that allow heat or electricity to pass through . It deals with only the flow of electrons.

Eg. water, copper wire, iron rod, some ceramic materials, metallic nail.

Insulators are materials that do not allow heat or electricity to pass through.

Eg. Book, plastic, rubber, glass, paper

The smallest level of organization in living things is
Advocard [28]
The smallest level of organization in living things is the atom.

Next in line would be the cell, since a cell is made up of atoms working together. Next, cells working together would make up a tissue, and further, tissues working together would make up an organ.
