Answer:
3859 grams
Explanation:
Given: Weight of a television = 8.50 pounds
To find: Weight of a television in grams
Solution:
1 pound = 0.454 kg and 1 kg = 1000 g
So,
1 pound = 0.454 × 1000 = 454 grams
8.50 pounds = 8.50 × 454 = 3859 grams
Therefore,
Weight of television in grams = 3859 grams
Answer:
Only a backward force is acting, no forward force.
Explanation:
- Once released from the initial push, in absence of friction, the shopping cart would continue moving forward at a constant speed forever.
- As it would move at a constant speed, no net force would be acting on it.
- So, if it is gradually slowing, there must be a net force producing an acceleration in a direction opposite to the movement.
- This force is the kinetic friction force, and is the only force acting on the cart in the horizontal direction.
- As any friction force, opposes to the relative movement between the cart and the horizontal floor, which means that is directed backward.
- This is consistent with the direction of the acceleration of the cart.
That will depend on the units of the 3.0. We need to know if it's 3 feet, 3 yards, 3 meters, or 3 miles. Each one will have a different answer.
