Lifting the book means that the object gains gravitational potential energy. GPE=mass*gravitational field strength*height, ∴m=GPE/gh, m=25.5/10*1.5=1.7 kg

What is electricity?
quester [9]

Answer:Electricity is the flow of electrons. All matter is made up of atoms, and an atom has a center, called a nucleus. When electrons are "lost" from an atom, the free movement of these electrons constitutes an electric current. Electricity is a basic part of nature and it is one of our most widely used forms of energy.

If only an external force can change the velocity of a body, how can the internal force of the brakes bring a car to rest? 1. It
RoseWind [281]

Answer:

4. It is the force of the road on the tires (an external force) that stops the car.

Explanation:

If there is no friction between the road and the tires, the car won't stop.

You can see this, for example, when there is ice on the road. You can still apply the brakes (internal force), but since there is no friction (external force) the car won't stop.

The force of the brakes on the wheels is not what makes the car stop, it is the friction of the road against still tires that makes it stop.

Describe the motion of a swing that requires 6 seconds to complete one cycle. What is its period and the frequency? Round to the
shutvik [7]

Period = 6 seconds and frequency = 0.167Hz .

<u>Explanation:</u>

We have , the motion of a swing that requires 6 seconds to complete one cycle. Period is the amount of time needed to complete one oscillation . And in question it's given that 6 seconds is needed to complete one cycle. Hence ,Period of the motion of a swing is 6 seconds . Frequency is the number of vibrations produced per second and is calculated with the formula of  \frac{1}{t} . SI unit of frequency is Hertz or Hz. We know that time period is 6 seconds so frequency =   \frac{1}{t}

⇒ frequency = \frac{1}{time}

⇒ frequency = \frac{1}{6}

⇒ frequency = 0.167Hz

Therefore , Period = 6 seconds and frequency = 0.167Hz .

A 53-N force is needed to keep a 50.0-kg box sliding across a flat surface at a constant velocity. What is the coefficient of ki
earnstyle [38]

The weight of the box is (mass) x (gravity) = (50 kg) x (9.8m/s²) = 490 newtons.

If the box is sliding at constant speed, and not speeding up or slowing down,
that means that the horizontal forces on it add up to zero. 

Since you're pushing on it with 53N in <em><u>that</u></em> direction, friction must be pulling
on it with 53N in the <u><em>other</em></u> direction.

 The 53N of friction is (the weight) x (the coefficient of kinetic friction).

                                                  53N  =  (490N) x (coefficient).

Divide each side by  490N :  Coefficient = (53N) / (490N)  =  0.1082 .

Rounded to the nearest hundredth, that's    <em>0.11 </em>.      (choice 'd')
