Answer:

The coefficient of friction of the surface μ = 0.235

Explanation:

Values of the given variables:

Weight of block = 8.5 N

Pushing force F = 2 N

velocity = constant

Solution:

Newton's Second Law of motion states that acceleration of an object depends on the mass of the object and the force applied

F = m a

Since v =constant, a = 0. Thus

Net force Fnet = 0.

Now F_net is the sum of the pushing force and the frictional force along the horizontal, which opposes the motion:

Fnet = Fpushing - Ffrictional_force

Given that Fnet = 0, Fpushing = Ffrictional_force. and Ffrictional_force = 2 N

Equation of friction is given by

Ffrictional_force = μ*W

2 = μ*8.5

μ = 2/8.5 = 0.235

If measuring experimental results, what can you predict about the work output of a 1200 watt hair dryer? the work output of the
eimsori [14]

Answer: first option, the work output of the hairdryer will be less than the work input.


Explanation:


1) The work output measured in watts is the power of hair dryer measured in joules per second.


2) The hair dryer converts electrical energy from the wall outlet to mechanical and thermal energy: hot wind.


3) Nevertheless, you can never expect a 100% efficiency of the machines: due to friction, some energy is converted into useless energy.


So, efiiviency = power output / power input< 1 ⇒


power output = work output / time


input power = work input / time


⇒ work output / work input < 1


⇒ work output < work input.


Which is the first option: the work output of the hairdryer will be less than the work input

1A. A strontium hydroxide solution is prepared by dissolving 10.45 g of Sr(OH)2 in water to make 41.00 mL of solution. What is t
horrorfan [7]

Answer:

1. 0.00352 M

2. 2HNO3(aq) + Sr(OH)2(aq) -----> Sr(NO3)2(aq) + 2H2O(l)

3. 0.00534 M

Explanation:

1.

Mass of strontium hydroxide= 10.45 g

Volume of solution = 41.00 ml

Number of moles = mass of Sr(OH)2/molar mass of Sr(OH)2 = 10.45g/121.63 g/mol= 0.0859 moles

Molarity= number of moles × volume = 0.0859 ×41/1000 = 0.00352 M

2.

2HNO3(aq) + Sr(OH)2(aq) -----> Sr(NO3)2(aq) + 2H2O(l)

3.

Concentration of acid CA= the unknown

Volume of acid VA= 31.5 ml

Concentration of base CB= 0.00352 M

Volume of base VB= 23.9 ml

Number of moles of acid NA= 2

Number of moles of base NB= 1

From;

CAVA/CBVB = NA/NB

CAVANB= CBVBNA

CA= CBVBNA/VANB

CA= 0.00352 × 23.9 ×2/31.5 ×1

CA= 0.00534 M

Which of the following liquids would have the highest viscosity at 25degC
kotykmax [81]

Answer:

Ethylene glycol

HOCH₂CH₂OH

Explanation:

For the molecules in the question, the viscosity will rise with the number of hydrogen bonds that can be formed.

A hydrogen bond is a week physical bond which is formed when hydrogen is found between atoms with high electronegativity (oxygen, nitrogen, fluorine):

O-H ··· O, N-H ··· O, N-H ··· O, O-H ··· N, F-H ··· F and so on.

Here we have have two compounds that can form hydrogen bonds (between themselves):

C) ethanol and D) ethylene glycol

Ethylene glycol have more hydroxide groups (-OH) than the ethanol so it will form more hydrogen bonds thus increasing its viscosity.
