Since toy is moving at constant speed that means that force that child is applying on toy is equal to force of friction.

Rate of speed that toy is moving is irelevant.

childs force is:
Fc = 2N
Fc = Ff  (Ff -friction force)

Ff = a*Q

where Q is weight of the toy and a is friction

if we express a we get
a = F/Q = 2/8 = 0.25

Answer:

a. 0.25

Explanation:

The toy is moving across the floor at constant velocity - this means that its acceleration is zero.

According to Newton's second law, this means that the net force acting on the toy is zero:

F_{net}=ma=0 (1)

because a=0.

The net force, in this case, consists of two forces acting in opposite directions:

- The applied force, F = 2.0 N

- The frictional force, F_f = -\mu (mg)

where \mu is the coefficient of sliding friction and (mg)=8.0 N is the weight of the toy.

Therefore, the equation of the forces (1) becomes:

F+F_f = 0\\F-\mu (mg)=0\\\mu = \frac{F}{mg}=\frac{2.0 N}{8.0 N}=0.25

A 57-kg woman holds a 6-kg package as she stands within an elevator which briefly accelerates upward at a rate of 0.15g. Determi
Temka [501]

Answer:

R = 710.7N

L = 67.689 N

During gravity fall L = R = 0 N

Explanation:

So the acceleration that the elevator is acting on the woman (and the package) in order to result in a net acceleration of 0.15g is

g + 0.15g = 1.15g

The force R that the elevator exerts on her feet would be product of acceleration and total mass (Newton's 2nd law):

a(m + M) = 1.15g(57 + 6) = 1.15*9.81*63 = 710.7N

The force L that she exerts on the package would be:

am = 1.15g *6 = 1.15*9.81*6 = 67.689N

When the system is falling, all have a net acceleration of g. So the acceleration that the elevator exerts on the woman (and the package) is 0, and so are the forces L and R.

A round object of mass 10 kg and radius 0.5 m rolls without slipping down a hill from a height of 4.5 m. If its speed at the bot
Mice21 [21]

Answer:

moment of inertia is 2.72 kg m²

Explanation:

given data

mass m = 10kg

height h = 4.5 m

radius r  = 0.5 m

speed  v = 6.5 m/s

to find out

moment of inertia

solution

we apply here conservation of energy

that is

mgh = 1/2 ×mv² + 1/2 × Iω²

here I is moment of inertia we find and

we know ω = Velocity / radius = 6.5 / 0.5 = 13

and g = 9.8

so put here all these value

10 (9.8) 4.5 = 1/2 ×(10)(6.5)² + 1/2 × I(13)²

441 = 211.25 + 1/2 × I( 169 )

I = 2.72

so moment of inertia is 2.72 kg m²

Please answer-WILL MARK THE BEST ANSWER AS BRAINLIEST (100 POINTS)
Masja [62]

Answer:

The Earth’s lithosphere, which includes the crust and upper mantle, is made up of a series of pieces, or tectonic plates, that move slowly over time.

A divergent boundary occurs when two tectonic plates move away from each other. Along these boundaries, earthquakes are common and magma (molten rock) rises from the Earth’s mantle to the surface, solidifying to create new oceanic crust. The Mid-Atlantic Ridge and Pacific Ring of Fire are two examples of divergent plate boundaries.

When two plates come together, it is known as a convergent boundary. The impact of the colliding plates can cause the edges of one or both plates to buckle up into a mountain ranges or one of the plates may bend down into a deep seafloor trench. A chain of volcanoes often forms parallel to convergent plate boundaries and powerful earthquakes are common along these boundaries.

At convergent plate boundaries, oceanic crust is often forced down into the mantle where it begins to melt. Magma rises into and through the other plate, solidifying into granite, the rock that makes up the continents. Thus, at convergent boundaries, continental crust is created and oceanic crust is destroyed.

Two plates sliding past each other forms a transform plate boundary. One of the most famous transform plate boundaries occurs at the San Andreas fault zone, which extends underwater. Natural or human-made structures that cross a transform boundary are offset—split into pieces and carried in opposite directions. Rocks that line the boundary are pulverized as the plates grind along, creating a linear fault valley or undersea canyon. Earthquakes are common along these faults. In contrast to convergent and divergent boundaries, crust is cracked and broken at transform margins, but is not created or destroyed.

crimeas [40]

Answer:

The emission spectrum is always the same and can be used to identify the element and part of the Bohr model proposed that electrons in the hydrogen are located in particular orbits around the nucleos are True.

Explanation:

The Niels Bohr and quantic mecanic theorys are both based on the study of atomics spectrums. The atomic spectrum is a characteristic pattern of a light wavelenght emited wich is unique to each element.

<u>For example</u>, if we put some low pressure hydrogen in a glass tube and in the tp of the glass we apply a voltage big enough to produce a electric current in the hydrogen gas, the tube its going to emit light wich have a color dependig of the gas element in the interior. If we observe this light with a spectrometer we are going to see shining lines and each one of this lines have a wavelenght and diferent colors. This lines are called emission spectrum and the wavelength of that spectrum are unique to eache element.

<u>Summering up, </u>we can identify elements using the emission spectrum because any element produces the same spectrum than other element.

 According to Niels Bhor theory  the electron only can be in especific discret ratios to the nucleus. Where this electron moves himself in circukar orbits under the influence of the Coulomb attraction force.
