Answer: an observation

Coal mining is a process of excavation of coal from the deeper layers of the earth crust. The mining process generally involves the unsaturated region but it adversely affect the saturated region, where groundwater reservoir is present. This results in the infiltration of the residues and sediments into the groundwater, hence contaminate it.

The given situation is an observation because it can be based upon facts and evidences.

A team of eight dogs pulls a sled with waxed wood runners on wet snow (mush!). The dogs have average masses of 18.5 kg, and the
meriva

Answer:

a.2.86 m/s^2

b.1058 N

Explanation:

We are given that

Mass of each dog,M=18.5 kg

Mass of sled with rider,m=250 kg

a.Average force,F=185 N

\mu_s=0.14

g=9.8 m/s^2

By Newton's second law

8F-f=(8M+m)a

a=\frac{8F-f}{8M+m}=\frac{8(185)-(0.14)(9.8)(250)}{8(18.5)+250}

a=2.86 m/s^2

b.By Newton's second law

T=ma+\mu_s mg

Substitute the values

T=250\times 2.86+0.14(250)(9.8)=1058 N

Hence, the force in the coupling between the dogs and the sled=1058 N

One of the factors that determines the ? of a capacitor is the frequency measured in hertz.
ycow [4]

Answer:

Reactance

Explanation:

In an AC circuit, the capacitive reactance of a capacitor is given by:

X_C = \frac{1}{2 \pi f C}

where

f is the frequency of the AC current

C is the capacitance of the capacitor

The reactance of the capacitor tells somehow the "resistance" of the capacitor to the passage of current through it. In fact:

- When the frequency of the AC current is zero (this means, we are in regime of DC current), the reactance becomes infinite, and this is true because the capacitor does not let the current pass through it)

- When the frequency of the AC current tends to infinite, the reactance becomes zero, and this is true because in this case the current changes direction so fast that the capacitor has not enough time to "block" the current, so the current almost no feels the presence of the capacitor.

0.4029 \mathrm{m} / \mathrm{s}^{2} is the acceleration of the box.

<u>Explanation:</u>

Given data:

Mass of the box = 3.74 kg

Flat friction-less ground is pulled forward by a 4.20 N force at a 50.0 degree angle and pulled back by a 2.25 N force at a 122 degree angle.

First, we need to find the net horizontal force acting on the box. With the given data, the equation can be formed as below.  Net horizontal force acting on the box (F) is given by

F=\left(4.20 \times \cos 50^{\circ}\right)+\left(2.25 \times \cos 122^{\circ}\right)

F=(4.20 \times 0.64278)+(2.25 \times-0.5299)

F = 2.699676 – 1.192275 = 1.507 N

Next, find acceleration of the box using Newton's second law of motion. This states that the link between mass (m) of an objects and the force (F) required to accelerate it. The equation can be given as

F=m \times acceleration\ (a)

\text {acceleration }(a)=\frac{F}{m}=\frac{1.507}{3.74}=0.4029 \mathrm{m} / \mathrm{s}^{2}
