Answer:

c) 500 N

Explanation:

If the block moves with constant speed there is no acceleration. We draw a free body diagram and define the forces on the body.

F_{f}=FrictionForce\\F_{e}=ExternalForce\\N=NormalForce\\W=Weight\\

The equation for the frictional force is:

F_{f}=N*H_{k}

Where H_{k} is the kinetic friction coefficient. We write the equilibrium equation in the y direcction:

\sum F_{y}\rightarrow N-W=0\\N=W

We replace this result in the equation for the frictional force:

F_{f}=W*H_{k}

We replace the data given by the exercise and find the weight

W=\frac{F_{f}}{H_{k}}\\W=\frac{100}{0.2}=500\: N

Lina20 [59]

The amount of heat required is B) 150 J

Explanation:

The amount of heat energy required to increase the temperature of a substance is given by the equation:

Q=mC\Delta T

where:

m is the mass of the substance

C is the specific heat capacity of the substance

\Delta T is the change in temperature of the substance

For the sample of copper in this problem, we have:

m = 25 g (mass)

C = 0.39 J/gºC (specific heat capacity of copper)

\Delta T = 15^{\circ}C (change in temperature)

Substituting, we find:

Q=(25)(0.39)(15)=146 J

So, the closest answer is B) 150 J.
