A rock at the edge of a 200-m high cliff has more potential energy than an equal sized rock at the edge of a 600-m high cliff.

False, the potential energy is proportional to the height, therefore the rock at the edge of the 600m cliff would have three times more Ep than the one at the edge of the 200m cliff.

Sloan [31]
I think the correct answer is true. Most paper does not reflect light very well because its surface is somewhat rough. Light only reflects to surfaces which has a smooth texture or have a uniform texture on the surface. Hope this answers the question. Have a nice day.

A box with a mass of 18 kg is pushed across the floor. It has coefficient of friction of 0.39. Calculate the force of friction i
Taya2010 [7]

Answer:

68.8 N

Explanation:

From the question given above, the following data were obtained:

Mass (m) of box = 18 Kg

Coefficient of friction (μ) = 0.39

Force of friction (F) =?

Next, we shall determine the normal force of the box. This is illustrated below:

Mass (m) of object = 18 Kg

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

Normal force (N) =?

N = mg

N = 18 × 9.8

N = 176.4 N

Finally, we shall determine the force of friction experienced by the object. This is illustrated below:

Coefficient of friction (μ) = 0.39

Normal force (N) = 176.4 N

Force of friction (F) =?

F = μN

F = 0.39 × 176.4

F = 68.796 ≈ 68.8 N

Thus, the box experience a frictional force of 68.8 N.

aivan3 [116]

Answer:

A. The applied force should be the same size as the friction force

Explanation:

Whenever we apply a force to an object it moves if the force applied to that object is unbalanced and there is no force or a lesser force to counter it. According to Newton's Second Law of motion, when an unbalanced force is applied to an object it produces an acceleration in the object in its own direction. So, the two forces acting on this box are the frictional force and the applied force in horizontal direction. In order to move the box at constant speed, the applied force must first, overcome the frictional force, so the object can start its motion. Since, the motion has constant velocity, it means no acceleration. So, the force must be balanced in order to avoid acceleration as a consequence of Newton's Second Law of motion. Therefore, the correction in this case will be:

<u>A. The applied force should be the same size as the friction force</u>
