First question: 800J
Second question: 20.4m
Why is it important that your finger be wet if you intend to touch it briefly to a hot clothes iron to test its temperature. If your finger is wet, some of the heat transmitted to your finger will be given to the water which has a high specific heat capacity and also a larger latent heat of vaporization.

Answer:
a)15 N
b)12.6 N
Explanation:
Given that
Weight of block (wt)= 21 N
μs = 0.80 and μk = 0.60
We know that
Maximum value of static friction given as
Frs = μs m g = μs .wt
by putting the values
Frs= 0.8 x 21 = 16.8 N
Value of kinetic friction
Frk= μk m g = μk .wt
By putting the values
Frk= 0.6 x 21 = 12.6 N
a)
When T = 15 N
Static friction Frs= 16.8 N
Here the value of static friction is more than tension T .It means that block will not move and the value of friction force will be equal to the tension force.
Friction force = 15 N
b)
When T= 35 N
Here value of tension force is more than maximum value of static friction that is why block will move .We know that when body is in motion then kinetic friction will act on the body.so the value of friction force in this case will be 12.6 N
Friction force = 12.6 N
