Answer:

Explanation:

By work - energy theorem on the box

Wmg + wn + wf = kf - ki

=> mgh + 0 + wf = 1/2 mv^2f - 1/2mv^2i

=> wf = 1/2mv^2f - 1/2mv^2i - mgh

:. Wf = 1/2×2.5×4^2 - 0- 2.5×9.8×1.5

= 20 - 36.75

= -16.75 J

Work done comes out negative here which is expected as the friction always act opposite to the velocity of an object. Friction is a non conservative force and it causes loss of mechanical energy.

The force of gravity is also known as
kolbaska11 [484]

Answer:

Gravitation

Explanation:

Gravity, also called gravitation, in mechanics, the universal force of attraction acting between all matter. ... On Earth all bodies have a weight, or downward force of gravity, proportional to their mass, which Earth's mass exerts on them. Gravity is measured by the acceleration that it gives to freely falling objects.

The rate at which a force displaces a mass a horizontal distance is measured in?
kodGreya [7K]

Answer:

c. joules

Explanation:

The rate at which a force displaces a mass a horizontal distance is measured in joules. In science, this phenomenon is known as work done.

Work done can be defined as the rate at which a force acting on an object or a body causes it to experience a displacement. The work done is a scalar quantity and is measured in joules (J).

Mathematically, work done is given by the formula;

Work done = force * distance

W = F * d

Where,

  • W is the work done
  • F represents the force acting on a body.
  • d represents the distance covered by the body.

A diver rises quickly to the surface from a 5.0 m depth. If she did not exhale the gas from her lunds before rising, by what fac
Inessa [10]

Answer:

1.5 times

Explanation:

h = depth of the diver initially = 5 m

\rho = density of seawater = 1030 kg m⁻³

P_{i} = Initial pressure at the depth

P_{f} = final pressure after rising = 101325 Pa

Initial pressure at the depth is given as

P_{i} = P_{f} + \rho gh\\P_{i} = 101325 + (1030) (9.8) (5)\\P_{i} = 151795 Pa

V_{i} = Initial volume at the depth

V_{f} = Final volume after rising

Since the temperature remains constant, we have

P_{f} V_{f} = P_{i} V_{i}\\(101325) V_{f} = (151795) V_{i}\\V_{f} = 1.5 V_{i}

Explain why the total positive charge in every atom of an element is always the<br> same.
geniusboy [140]

Answer:

When an atom has an equal number of electrons and protons, it has an equal number of negative electric charges (the electrons) and positive electric charges (the protons). The total electric charge of the atom is therefore zero and the atom is said to be neutral.
