A) 0.5 N
B) 0.6 N
C) 6.67 N
D) 8 N

<span>B) 0.6 N
   I suspect you have a minor error in your question. Claiming a coefficient of static friction of 0.30N is nonsensical. Putting the Newton there is incorrect. The figure of 0.25 for the coefficient of kinetic friction looks OK. So with that correction in mind, let's solve the problem. The coefficient of static friction is the multiplier to apply to the normal force in order to start the object moving. And the coefficient of kinetic friction (which is usually smaller than the coefficient of static friction) is the multiplied to the normal force in order to keep the object moving. You've been given a normal force of 2N, so you need to multiply the coefficient of static friction by that in order to get the amount of force it takes to start the shoe moving. So: 0.30 * 2N = 0.6N And if you look at your options, you'll see that option "B" matches exactly.</span>

The half-life of caffeine is 5 hours. If you ingested a 30 oz Big Gulp, how many oz of caffeine is left after one half life? * Y
xeze [42]

Answer:

The amount of caffeine left after one half life of 5 hours is 15 oz.

Explanation:

Half life is the time taken for a radioactive substance to degenerate or decay to half of its original size.

The half life of caffeine is 5 hours. So ingesting a 30 oz, this would be reduced to half of its size after the first 5 hours.

So that:

After one half life of 5 hours, the value of caffeine that would be left is;

                                    \frac{30}{2} = 15 oz

The amount of caffeine left after one half life of 5 hours is 15 oz.

When numbers are very small or very large, it is convenient to either express the value in scientific notation and/or by using a
Oxana [17]

Answer:

5 mg, 5\cdot 10^{-3}g

Explanation:

First of all, let's rewrite the mass in grams using scientific notation.

we have:

m = 0.005 g

To rewrite it in scientific notation, we must count by how many digits we have to move the dot on the right - in this case three. So in scientific notation is

m=5\cdot 10^{-3}g

If  we want to convert into milligrams, we must remind that

1 g = 1000 mg

So we can use the proportion

1 g : 1000 mg = 0.005 g : x

and we find

x=\frac{(1000 mg)(0.005 g)}{1 g}=5 mg
