The block moves with constant velocity: for Newton's second law, this means that the resultant of the forces acting on the block is zero, because the acceleration is zero.
We are only concerned about the horizontal direction, and there are only two forces acting along this direction: the force F pushing the block and the frictional force
acting against the motion. Since their resultant must be zero, we have:
The frictional force is
where
is the coefficient of kinetic friction
is the weight of the block.
Substituting these values, we find the magnitude of the force F:

Answer:
B) with 9/10 submerged
Explanation:
= mass of ice cube
= density of soft drink
= Volume of soft drink displaced
ice cube floats in the soft drink when the force of buoyancy on it balances its weight. Force of buoyancy acting on the cube in upward direction is same as the weight of the soft drink displaced. hence we can write
weight of ice cube = weight of soft drink displaced
we see that the acceleration due to gravity cancel out both side and hence it does affect as astronaut is on earth on in a lunar module.
