Answer & Explanation:

In physics, a contact force is a force that acts at the point of contact between two objects, in contrast to body forces. Contact forces are described by Newton's laws of motion, as with all other forces in dynamics. Contact force is the force in which an object comes in contact with another object. Contact forces are also direct forces. Contact forces are ubiquitous and are responsible for most visible interactions between macroscopic collections of matter. Pushing a car up a hill or kicking a ball or pushing a desk across a room are some of the everyday examples where contact forces are at work. In the first case the force is continuously applied by the person on the car, while in the second case the force is delivered in a short impulse.

givi [52]

Answer:

The answer to your question is:  $ 35.6

Explanation:

C₆H₁₂N₂O₄Pt

Platinum = 52.5 %

Price = $1047 / troy ounce

cost of platinum = ? of 2 g

1 troy ounce = 480 grains

1 grain = 64.8 mg

Process

Get 52.5 % of 2 g

                               2 g -----------------  100 %

                               x     -----------------  52.5%

                              x = (52.5 x 2) / 100

                              x = 1.05 g

                               1 g --------------------- 1000 mg

                               1.05 g ----------------   x

                               x = 1050 mg of Pt

                               1 grain ---------------- 64.8 mg

                              x            ---------------  1050 mg

                              x = 16.2 grains

                              480 grains ---------------- 1 troy ounce

                              16.2 grains ----------------   x

                               x = (16.2 x 1) / 480

                                x = 0.034 troy ounce

                              $ 1047 ------------------  1 troy ounce

                                x        -------------------  0.034

                                x = (0,034 x 1047) / 1

                                x = $ 35.6
