Answer:

20.6 N

Explanation:

Friction equals normal force times coefficient of friction.

F = Fn μ

On level ground, normal force equal weight.

Fn = W

Therefore:

F = W μ

F = (685 N) (0.0300)

F = 20.6 N

Nitella [24]

Answer:

v=516526.9m/s

Explanation:

The force to which the object of mass <em>m</em> is attracted to a star of mass <em>M</em> while being at a distance <em>r</em> is:

F=\frac{GMm}{r^2}

Where G=6.67\times10^{-11}Nm^2/Kg^2 is the gravitational constant.

Also, Newton's 2nd Law tells us that this object subject by that force will experiment an acceleration given by <em>F=ma.</em>

We have then:

ma=\frac{GMm}{r^2}

Which means:

a=\frac{GM}{r^2}

The object departs from rest (v_0=0m/s) and travels a distance <em>d</em>, under an acceleration <em>a</em>, we can calculate its final velocity with the formula v^2=v_0^2+2ad, which for our case will be:

v^2=2ad=\frac{2GMd}{r^2}

v=\sqrt{\frac{2GMd}{r^2}}

We assume <em>a</em> constant on the vecinity of the surface because d=0.025m is nothing compared with r=5\times10^3m. With our values then we have:

v=\sqrt{\frac{2GMd}{r^2}}=\sqrt{\frac{2(6.67\times10^{-11}Nm^2/Kg^2)(2\times10^{30}Kg)(0.025m)}{(5\times10^3m)^2}}=516526.9m/s

8).  A rubber band is storing more elastic energy in it when it's stretched. 
It's the work you had to do to stretch it.

9).  Radio, TV, microwave, infrared (heat), visible light, ultraviolet light, X-rays,
and gamma rays are all part of the electromagnetic spectrum, and all of them
carry energy from one place to another.
