The force of friction on the box is 8.82 N.

The force of friction is given by the formula

F=μN

Here N is the normal force of the box=mg=3*9.8=29.4 N

Now the static friction force on the box is=0.4*29.4=11.76 N

Since the box is applied with the horizontal pull of 15 N, which is greater than the static friction, therefore the box must be in the moving condition, in that case there is dynamic friction force is applied on the box=0.3*29.4=8.8 N

Therefore the force of friction on the box is 8.8 N.

Multiple-Concept Example 6 reveiws the principles that play a role in this problem. A nuclear power reactor generates 2.3 x 109
r-ruslan [8.4K]

Answer:

change in mass = 2.41*10^{8}kg

Explanation:

The change in the mass can be computed by using the relation

E=\Delta mc^2\\\Delta m=\frac{E}{c^2}(1)

That is, the energy liberated comes from the mass of the nuclear fuel. The energy generated in one year is

E=Pt=2.3*10^{9}\frac{J}{s}*1 year*\frac{365.25 day}{1 year}*\frac{24h}{1 day}*\frac{3600s}{1h}=7.25*10^{16}J

Hence, by replacing in the equation (1) you have  (c=3*10^{8}m/s)

\Delta m=\frac{7.25*10^{16}J}{3*10^{8}\frac{m}{s}}=2.41*10^{8}kg

HOPE THIS HELPS!!

Which of the following is true A. If the sum of the external forces on an object is zero, then the object must be in equilibrium
yanalaym [24]

Answer:

A. If the sum of the external forces on an object is zero, then the object must be in equilibrium

Explanation:

Equilibrium, in physics, the condition of a system when neither its state of motion nor its internal energy state tends to change with time.

For a single particle, equilibrium arises if the vector sum of all forces acting upon the particle is zero.

the object is at equilibrium, then the net force acting upon the object should be 0 Newton. Thus, if all the forces are added together as vectors, then the resultant force (the vector sum) should be 0 Newton.

There are three types of equilibrium: stable, unstable, and neutral

What is the escape speed of an electron launched from the surface of a 1.1-cm-diameter glass sphere that has been charged to 8.0
zimovet [89]
At surface,
v = kq/r

And potential energy of an electron is given by,
PE = -ev = -ekq/r

At escape velocity,
PE + KE = 0.
Therefore,
1/2mv^2 - ekq/r =0
1/2mv^2 = ekq/r
v = Sqrt [2ekq/mr], where v = escape velocity, e = 1.6*10^-19 C, k = 8.99*10^9 Nm^2/C^2, m = 9.11*10^-31 kg, r = 1.1*10^-2 m, q = 8*10^-9 C

Substituting;
v = Sqrt [(2*1.6*19^-19*8.99*10^9*8*10^-9)/(9.11*10^-31*1.1*10^-2)] = 47949357.23 m/s ≈ 4.795 *10^7 m/s
