A horse draws a sled horizontally across a snow-covered field. The coefficient of friction between the sled and the snow is 0.13

5, and the mass of the sled, including the load, is 195.9kg. If the horse moves the sled at a constant speed of 1.785m/s, what is the power needed to accomplish this?

Answer:

P = 462.62 watts

Explanation:

The power needed to accomplish this can be calculated how

P = Fv

    Where F:  The force exerted by the horse

                v:  velocity

The force exerted by the horse is against friction force; how the movement is with constant velocity these forces must be equals, then

Fr = μN

    =μmg

    = (0.135)(195.9)(9.8)

    = 259.17 N

And the power is

P = (259.17)(1.785)

P = 462.62 watts

Heat rash is caused by chemical exposure Truth or false
Harrizon [31]

Answer:

This is false.

Explanation:

Heat rash develops when some of your sweat ducts clog. Instead of evaporating, perspiration gets trapped beneath the skin, causing inflammation and rash. Heat rash is usually self-limited, meaning it resolves on its own without treatment. Over-the-counter treatments such as calamine, hydrocortisone cream, itch preparations (such as Benadryl spray), or sunburn lotions can be used as skincare to treat the itching and burning symptoms. Heat rash usually goes away on its own within three or four days so long as you don't irritate the site further. Heat rash happens when the sweat glands get blocked. The trapped sweat irritates the skin and leads to small bumps.

A 3.00-kg object undergoes an acceleration given by a = (2.00 i + 5.00 j) m/s^2. Find (a) the resultant force acting on the obje
kobusy [5.1K]

Answer:

(a): The resultant force acting on the object are F= (5.99 i + 14.98 j).

(b): The magnitude of the resultant force are F= 16.4 N < 68.19º .

Explanation:

m= 3kg

a= 2 i + 5 j = 5 .38 < 68.19 º

F= m * a

F= 3* ( 5.38 < 68.19º )

F= 16.4 N < 68.19º

Fx= F * cos(68.19º)

Fx= 5.99

Fy= F* sin(68.19º)

Fy= 14.98

Jill does twice as much work as Jack does and in half the time. Jill's power output is Group of answer choices one-fourth as muc
Musya8 [376]

Answer:

Second Choice.

Explanation:

Jack's Power = W/t

Jill's Power = 2W/(0.5)*t

2/0.5 = 4

Jill's Power = 4*W/t

Jill's Power is 4 times greater than Jack's

Which soil horizon is located closest to the earth's crust?
Pachacha [2.7K]

Answer: O horizon

Horizons refers to the distinct layers of soil lying parallel to the earth surface. Horizons develop as a result of soil formation. Soil forms as a result of weathering or rocks and addition of organic matter from the decomposition of plant and animal waste. Each horizon differs from the others on the basis of color, texture, type of particles present in the soil, type of minerals present and amount of organic matter present in the soil.

O horizon is the soil horizon that is located closest to the earth's crust. This horizon consist of undecayed or partially decayed animal and plant waste like shedded leaves, bark, animal skin and feces. As, the matter remains undecomposed, therefore, this horizon consists of low amount of organic matter and it is less fertile for plant growth.
