Answer:
a.
b.1058 N
Explanation:
We are given that
Mass of each dog,M=18.5 kg
Mass of sled with rider,m=250 kg
a.Average force,F=185 N


By Newton's second law



b.By Newton's second law

Substitute the values

Hence, the force in the coupling between the dogs and the sled=1058 N
This leads to a paradox known as the Gibbs paradox, after Josiah Willard Gibbs. The paradox allows for the entropy of closed systems to decrease, violating the second law of thermodynamics. A related paradox is the "mixing paradox".
Answer:
C) is zero
Explanation:
According to the law of energy conservation, the total mechanical energy of the object is conserved. A book falling a distance d would have a change in potential energy, resulting in the same change in kinetic energy. But the total mechanical energy must be the same. So there's 0 change in total energy of the system.
The question is somewhat ambiguous.
-- It's hard to tell whether it's asking about '3 cubic meters'
or (3m)³ which is actually 27 cubic meters.
-- It's hard to tell whether it's asking about '100 cubic feet'
or (100 ft)³ which is actually 1 million cubic feet.
I'm going to make an assumption, and then proceed to
answer the question that I have invented.
I'm going to assume that the question is referring to
'three cubic meters' and 'one hundred cubic feet' .
OK. We'll obviously need to convert some units here.
I've decided to convert the meters into feet.
For 1 meter, I always use 3.28084 feet.
Then (1 meter)³ = 1 cubic meter = (3.28084 ft)³ = 35.31 cubic feet.
So 3 cubic meters = (3 x 35.31 cubic feet) = 105.9 cubic feet.
That's more volume than 100 cubic feet.
