Hello. You forgot to put the image that shows information needed to answer that question. The image is attached below:

Answer:

The cuboid and the cube exert the same pressure on the floor.

Explanation:

To answer this question, we must first consider that the area of the cuboid is equal to 24cm^2, while the area of the cube is equal to 16cm^2.

With that, we must calculate the pressure that each exerts, with the formula:

P = F / A

Cuboid: P = 60 / 0.0024 = 25000 N/m^2

Cube: P = 40 / 0.0016 = 25000 N/m^2

Answer:

Check Explanation

Explanation:

Pressure applied on a surface is defined as the force applied divided by the perpendicular cross sectional Area to the applied force

Pressure exerted by the cuboid = (weight of the cuboid)/(surface Area of the base of the cuboid touching the ground)

Weight of the cuboid = 60 N

surface Area of the base of the cuboid touching the ground = A(cuboid)

P(cuboid) = [60/A(cuboid)]

Pressure exerted by the cube = (weight of the cube)/(surface Area of the base of the cube touching the ground)

Weight of the cube = 40 N

surface Area of the base of the cube touching the ground = A(cube)

P(cube) = [40 ÷ A(cube)]

So, the diagram for the two structures, a cube and a cuboid is still missing from the internet, without this diagram and the surface area of their bases, we cannot truly tell which structure is undergoing which pressure. So, what I've done will make it very much simpler if all the diagrams are beyond.

P(cuboid) = [60/A(cuboid)]

P(cube) = [40/A(cube)]

Plugging in the surface areas, esp when their surface areas would be known wicked.

That way, the pressure appears so, you will go!!!

Hope this Helps!!!

dangina [55]

<u>Answer:</u>

Cheryl, Heather and Keaton all are correct.

<u>Explanation:</u>

Everything around you is made of matter and matter is anything that has mass and occupies space or in other words, anything which has volume is called matter.

Here, in the given example, Cheryl, Heather and Keaton all are correct because the mug, the hot chocolate which is inside the mug and the steam coming out of it, all have mass. Therefore, all are correct except for Mikayla.

3. Write any two types of force.​
Lerok [7]

Answer:

An <u>applied force</u> is a force that is applied to an object by a person or another object. If a person is pushing a desk across the room, then there is an applied force acting upon the object. The applied force is the force exerted on the desk by the person.

A <u>friction force</u> is the force exerted by a surface as an object moves across it or makes an effort to move across it. There are at least two types of friction force - sliding and static friction. Though it is not always the case, the friction force often opposes the motion of an object. For example, if a book slides across the surface of a desk, then the desk exerts a friction force in the opposite direction of its motion. Friction results from the two surfaces being pressed together closely, causing intermolecular attractive forces between molecules of different surfaces. As such, friction depends upon the nature of the two surfaces and upon the degree to which they are pressed together. The maximum amount of friction force that a surface can exert upon an object can be calculated using the formula below:

F_{frict} = µ • F_{norm}

Answer:

I would use the model of Ammonia because it helps you visualize the structure of NH3 better than the description. It would be easier to understand the structure of it if you can see it, rather than reading its description.

Amy uses 20N of force to push a lawn mower 10 meters. How much work does she do? *
babunello [35]

She does 200J .

We know she uses 20N of force and 10m is the distance. We multiply both numbers and we are given our answer of 200J. Hope this was helpful. :)
