You have to solve this by using the equations of motion:
u=3
v=0
s=2.5
a=?
v^2=u^2+2as
0=9+5s
Giving a=-1.8m/s^2
Then using the equation:
F=ma
F is the frictional force as there is no other force acting and its negative as its in the opposite direction to the direction of motion.
-F=25(-1.8)
F=45N
Then use the formula:
F=uR
Where u is the coefficient of friction, R is the normal force and F is the frictional force.
45=u(25g)
45=u(25*10)
Therefore, the coefficient of friction is 0.18
Hope that helps
Answer: D. 0.57
Explanation:
The formula to calculate the eccentricity
of an ellipse is (assuming the moon's orbit in the shape of an ellipse):

Where:
is the apoapsis (the longest distance between the moon and its planet)
is the periapsis (the shortest distance between the moon and its planet)
Then:


This is the moon's orbital eccentricity
Answer: work must be done on the system (Option A)
Explanation:
The second law of thermodynamics is the fundamental law of nature; it states that energy can be transferred from cold objects to hot objects only, if work is done on the system. If energy is added to the system then as a result the thermal energy would increase. Second law of thermodynamics is used to determine whether a process is spontaneous or not. Moreover,the second law of thermodynamics is also used in refrigerators.
