A block whose weight is 45 N rests on a horizontal table. A horizontal force of 36 N is applied to the block. The coefficient of

kinetic and static friction are 0.65 and 0.42, respectively. Will the block move under the influence of the force, and if so, what will be the blocks acceleration?

Answer:

1.5 m/s²

Explanation:

For the block to move, it must first overcome the static friction.

Fs = N μs

Fs = (45 N) (0.42)

Fs = 18.9 N

This is less than the 36 N applied, so the block will move.  Since the block is moving, kinetic friction takes over.  To find the block's acceleration, use Newton's second law:

∑F = ma

F − N μk = ma

36 N − (45 N) (0.65) = (45 N / 9.8 m/s²) a

6.75 N = 4.59 kg a

a = 1.47 m/s²

Rounded to two significant figures, the block's acceleration is 1.5 m/s².

Usually the coefficient of static friction is greater than the coefficient of kinetic friction.  You might want to double check the problem statement, just to be sure.

What type of fault creates huge mountains
vladimir1956 [14]

Together, normal and reverse faults are called dip-slip faults, because the movement on them occurs along the dip direction -- either down or up, respectively. Reverse faults create some of the world's highest mountain chains, including the Himalaya Mountains and the Rocky Mountains .

Which result occurs during an exothermic reaction?
Irina-Kira [14]

In exothermic reactions, heat and light are released to the surrounding environment. On the other hand, in an endothermic reaction, heat is required and therefore it can be considered as a reactant.

  • In exothermic reactions, light and heat are released into the environment (Option D).

  • Exothermic reactions release energy in the form of heat or light.

  • Combustion reactions are generally exothermic reactions.

  • After an exothermic reaction takes place it is possible to observe that the energy of the products of the reaction is lesser than the energy of the reactants.

  • The energy released in exothermic reactions is evidenced by the increase in temperature of the reaction.
