Living things is related to one another. I think thats why they are called as a system.

Any living thing has multiple things going on in it's body at one time and all are working on separate or similar tasks in the organism, therefore they work as a system.

A 6.00-kg box sits on a ramp that is inclined at 37.0° above the horizontal. the coefficient of kinetic friction between the box
forsale [732]
We need to see what forces act on the box:

In the x direction:

Fh-Ff-Gsinα=ma, where Fh is the horizontal force that is pulling the box up the incline, Ff is the force of friction, Gsinα is the horizontal component of the gravitational force, m is mass of the box and a is the acceleration of the box.

In the y direction:

N-Gcosα = 0, where N is the force of the ramp and Gcosα is the vertical component of the gravitational force. 

From N-Gcosα=0 we get: 

N=Gcosα, we will need this for the force of friction.

Now to solve for Fh:

Fh=ma + Ff + Gsinα,

Ff=μN=μGcosα, this is the friction force where μ is the coefficient of friction. We put that into the equation for Fh.
G=mg, where m is the mass of the box and g=9.81 m/s²

Fh=ma + μmgcosα+mgsinα

Now we plug in the numbers and get:

Fh=6*3.6 + 0.3*6*9.81*0.8 + 6*9.81*0.6 = 21.6 + 14.1 + 35.3 = 71 N

The horizontal force for pulling the body up the ramp needs to be Fh=71 N.

Which of the following improves your range of motion and helps prevent
erma4kov [3.2K]
A. A healthy body composition will improve range of motion and prevent injuries. Staying in a healthy weight range (BMI) prevents overexerting joints. It also helps increase range of motion which in turn reduces injury.

The potential energy of a 35 kg cannon ball is 14000 J. How high was the cannon ball to have this much potential energy?
Anettt [7]

From the information given, cannon ball weighs 40 kg and has a potential energy of 14000 J.

We need to find its height.

We will use the formula P.E = mgh

Therefore h = P.E / mg

where P.E is the potential energy,

m is mass in kg,  

g is acceleration due to gravity (9.8 m/s²)

h is the height of the object's displacement in meters.

h = P.E. / mg

h = 14000 / 40 × 9.8

h = 14000 / 392

h = 35.7

Therefore the canon ball was 35.7 meters  high.

You are pushing a wooden crate across the floor at constant speed. You decide to turn the crate on end, reducing by half the sur
borishaifa [10]

Answer:

D. Half as great

Explanation:

Since we know that the friction force between the surface of crate and ground is given as

F_f = \mu F_n

so here we know that

\mu = friction coefficient between two surfaces which depends on the effective contact area between two surfaces

F_n = normal force due to the object

So when we turn the object on another side such that the surface area is half then the friction coefficient will become also half

So here the friction force will also reduce to half

so correct answer will be

D. Half as great
