Mary applies a force of 70 N to push a box with an acceleration of 0.50 m/s2. When she increases the pushing force to 78 N, the

box's acceleration changes to 0.68 m/s2. There is a constant friction force present between the floor and the box.
(a) What is the mass of the box in kilograms?
(b) What is the coefficient of kinetic friction between the floor and the box?

Answer:

The answers are: a) m = 44.44 kg; b) μ = 0.1097

Explanation:

a)

we have the following data:

F = applied force

f = friction force

F - f = net force = ma

F1 = 70 N

a1 = 0.5 m/s^2

F2 = 78 N

a2 = 0.68 m/s^2

F1 - f = ma1

F2 - f = ma2

Subtracting the second equation from the first equation:

F1 - F2 = m(a1 - a2)

m = (F1 - F2)/(a1 - a2) = (70 - 78)/(0.5 - 0.68) = 44.44 kg

b)

f = μmg

F1 - μmg = ma1

Clearing μ:

μ = (F1 - ma1)/(mg) = [70 - (44.44*0.5)]/[44.44*9.8] = 0.1097

When an object is electrically polarized
marta [7]

Answer:

One side is more positive, the other is more negative

Explanation:

When an atom is electrically polarized, it means that one side has more electrons than the other. This makes one side more negative as it has more electrons than the other. I hope this helps!

Nonrenewable resources are natural resources that are limited in supply and cannot be replaced as quickly as they are used up.
zysi [14]

Answer:

True

Explanation:

Nonrenewable resources ARE limited in supply. They don't get replaced at the speed they get made. For example: we pump crude oil from the ground at a rate that makes it impossible for crude oil to be replaced. Crude oil takes millions of years to produce

A crate remains stationary after it has been placed on a ramp inclined at an angle with the horizontal. Which of the following s
Ganezh [65]

Answer:

d. It is equal to the component of the gravitational force acting down the ramp.

Explanation:

The stationary crate is inclined at an angle with the horizontal. The Recall, Frictional Force is any Force that opposes motion.

Because the Force of Friction that is opposing the motion of the crate along the inclination side.

Therefore this Frictional force is balanced or equal to the force that is driving the inclined force.

Hence Frictional Force is equal to the Gravitational Force that is acting in the ramp, that is why the crate is stationery.
