Let us use the formula for Newton's Second Law of Motion:

Net force = Mass*Acceleration
Net force = Applied Force - μ*Normal Force
where μ is the coefficient of kinetic friction

Normal Force = Force due to gravity = mass*gravity
Normal Force = (210 kg)(9.81 m/s²) =<em> 2,060.1 N</em>

Then,
Net force = 4100 - 0.38*2060.1 = 3317.162 N

3317.162 N = (210 kg)(a)
Solving for acceleration,
<em>a = 15.796 m/s²</em>

What is the amount of electric field passing through a surface called? A. Electric flux.B. Gauss’s law.C. Electricity.D. Charge
Colt1911 [192]

Answer:

Electric flux

Explanation:

The electric flux measures the amount of electric field passing through a surface. For any closed surface, the electric field passing through it (electric flux) is given by Guass law. The mathematical relation between electric flux and the enclosed charge is known as Gauss law for the electric field. Electric flux may also be visualised as the amount of electric lines of force passing through an area.

Using the rules for significant figures, what do you get when you multiply 67.6 by 1.2?
Paul [167]

Answer:

B. 81

Explanation:

When you multiply two numbers, round the answer to the least number of significant figures available.  67.6 has three significant figures, and 1.2 has two significant figures.  So we round to two significant figures.

A student exerts a force of 500 n pushing a box 10 m across the floor in 4 s. how much work does the student perform?
gregori [183]
Work = Force * distance
W = Fd

Given F = 500 N, d = 10 m
W = (500)(10)
W = 5000 J

The work done is 500 Joules. The time of 4 s is irrelevant in this case.
