Answer:

0.19

Explanation:

mass of block, m = 40 kg

F = 150 N

Angle make with the horizontal, θ = 60 degree

Let μ be the coefficient of kinetic friction

The component of force along horizontal direction  is F Cos θ

                                                                    = 150 cos 60 = 75 N

As it is moving with constant velocity it mean the acceleration of the block is zero.

Applied force in horizontal direction = friction force

75 = μ x Normal reaction

75 = μ x m x g

75 = μ x 40 x 9.8

μ = 0.19

Thus, the coefficient of kinetic friction is 0.19.

Explain in detail how educational institutions and personal ideology affect the influence of contemporary psychological
PilotLPTM [1.2K]

Answer:

Educational institutions can influence what psychological perspectives are taught, studied, and researched. Take, for example, behaviorism. Before the cognitive perspective re-emerged, behaviorism was the dominant perspective being taught in most universities. Personal ideology can also affect which perspective a psychologist supports, the course of research a psychologist undertakes, and also a psychologist's perception and interpretation of research findings. For example, during the dominance of behaviorism, psychologists were discouraged from studying cognitive processes. As a result, much of the research conducted had a behaviorist slant to it.

How can u tell matched forces act on objects?
mamaluj [8]

Answer:If an object's speed changes, or if it changes the direction it's moving in,

then there must be forces acting on it. There is no other way for any of

these things to happen.

Once in a while, there may be a group of forces (two or more) acting on

an object, and the group of forces may turn out to be "balanced".  When

that happens, the object's speed will remain constant, and ... if the speed

is not zero ... it will continue moving in a straight line.  In that case, it's not

possible to tell by looking at it whether there are any forces acting on it
