Maximum friction force= 249 N
Normal reaction force=206.3*10=2063 N
Maximum friction force=coefficient of friction*normal reaction force
Maximum friction force/normal reaction force=coefficient of friction
Coefficient of friction=249/2063=0.121

An object weighs 10N on earth .what is the objects weight on a planet one tenth the earths mass and one half its radius?
earnstyle [38]
We know, weight = mass * gravity 
10 = m * 9.8
m = 10/9.8 = 1.02 Kg

Now, Let, the gravity of that planet = g'
g' = m/r²   [m,r = mass & radius of that planet ]
g' = M/10 / (1/2R)²   [M, R = mass & radius of Earth ]
g' = 4M / 10R²
g' = 2/5 * M/R²
g' = 2/5 * g   
g' = 2/5 * 9.8
g' = 3.92

Weight on that planet = planet's gravity * mass
W' = 3.92 * 1.02
W' = 4 N

In short, Your Answer would be 4 Newtons

Hope this helps!

If two runners take the same amount of time to run a mile, they have the same __________.
Elan Coil [88]

None of the choices is correct.

If two runners take the same amount of time to run a mile,
they have the same average speed.  But their velocities
are not the same unless both runners begin and end their
run at the same points.

Speed is   (distance covered) divided by (time to cover the distance).

Velocity is not.  It's something different. 
'Velocity' is not just a bigger word for 'speed'.
