Two workers are sliding 290 kg crate across the floor. One worker pushes forward on the crate with a force of 430 N while the ot
m_a_m_a [10]

Answer:0.27

Explanation:

Given

One worker Pushes with force F_1=430 N

other Pulls it with a rope of rope F_2=360 N

mass of crate m=290 kg

both forces are horizontal and crate slides with a constant speed

Both forces are in the same direction so Friction will oppose the forces and will be equal in magnitude of sum of two forces because crate is moving with constant speed i.e. net force is zero on it

f_r=F_1+F_2

where f_r is the friction force

f_r=430+360

f_r=790 N

f_r=\mu N

where \muis the coefficient of static friction

N=mg

790=\mu 29\cdot 9.8

\mu =0.27

Gravity is the force that pulls you down.
(This is kind of a duh! question ... How do we know
which way is "down" ?  We feel gravity, and we call
that the "down" direction.)

Magnetic force holds things to fridge doors.

Contact forces need to touch something in order to
exert their force.
Example:  Gravity is NOT a contact force.

I don't know about "rubbing things away".
This might be a description of friction, but if so,
it's not a good one.

Buoyant force is what keeps floating things floating.

Air resistance slows things down when they move in air.

A fuel cell that is becoming very popular for cars runs on:
jok3333 [9.3K]
It runs on Hydrogen gas.

Actually, using hydrogen as a fuel is not new. We used to use it on air vehicle like air balloon. But back then, we still cannot figure out how to safely use this because Hydrogen exlodes rather easily

Suppose the farthest distance a person can see without visual aid is 53 cm.
natita [175]

Answer: a. 53cm b. Diverging c. 0.02dioptres

Explanation:

Since the person in question cannot see far object clearly, it shows that the individual is suffering from myopia (short sightedness).

If the object distance (u) is 53cm. for the person to be able to see far way, it means the image must be at infinity. This shows image distance v is infinity. Using the lens formula

1/f = 1/u+1/v

1/f = 1/53 + 1/Infinity

1/f = 1/53 + 0

f=53cm

b) The lens used is concave lens (diverging lens) to diverge all rays outwards

c) Power of a lens P will be 1/53.

P = 0.02dioptres
