Physics

Temperature increases at a rate of approximately 20o C/km in the upper crust (first 10 km) but then the rate decreases to only approximately 0.3o C/km below 200km due to the homogenizing effect of mantle convection. A good approximation of the rate of pressure increase with depth is: 30 MPa/km in the crust and 35 MPa/km in the mantle.

According to the article "Nuclear shapes" by Renee Lucas the nucleus's shape is mainly modified by vibrational and rotational features happening within the cell. According to the article if i read correctly "near closed shells spherical shapes prevail, while between closed shells the large number of valence nucleons in orbit with large particle angular momentum leads to nuclei with large deformations leading them to not only maintain its shape but also alloying it to work.

What is the frictional force between a box and the floor it is being pulled across if, the kinetic coefficient of friction is 0.
Artyom0805 [142]

If the pulling is done parallel to the floor with constant velocity, then the box is in equilibrium. In particular, the weight and normal force cancel, so that

<em>n</em> = 38 N

The friction force is proportional to the normal force by a factor of 0.27, so that

<em>f</em> = 0.27 (38 N) ≈ 10.3 N

and so the answer is D.
