2. A 3.0 kg block rests on a level surface. The coefficient of static friction is µs = 0.50, and the coefficient of kinetic fric

tion is µk = 0.20. A horizontal force F is applied to the block. As F is increased, the block begins moving. Describe how the force of friction varies as F increases from the moment the block is at rest to when it begins moving. Indicate how you could determine the force of friction at each value of F—before the block starts moving, at the point it starts moving, and after it is moving. Show your work.

Friction force is equal to the applied force F until the block starts moving. Hence, it will increase until the maximum value of 3.0*10*0.50=150 N. 

While it's moving, the friction will be 3.0*10*0.2 = 60 N, constant. The rest of the applied force will accelerate the block.

Explain where most of the mass of an atom is located. Also, explain why some particles that make up the atom do not contribute m
Naddika [18.5K]
Within an atom, there are three elementary particles: the proton, neutron, and electron. Most of the mass of an atom is situated within the nucleus, which is the central part of the atom. It is made up of protons and neutrons, which are the heaviest subatomic particles. The electrons within the atom, orbit around the nucleus at a very far distance. Electrons are also a part of the lightest group of subatomic particles called leptons. That is why these electrons don't contribute much to the majority of an atoms mass. They are very light and they orbit at very far distances.

Hello!

Since the two weights are <em>off</em> the table, the block will move towards letter F. 

I hope this helps :))

TiliK225 [7]
You may jump higher because the more the mass of the planet, the more gravitational force. There is less mass(and gravity) on Callisto so you wouldn’t be weighed down as much and can jump higher. Whereas on Jupiter there is more weight holding you down.

Which change occurs when an atom undergoes alpha decay?
oee [108]
In an alpha decay, an atom emits an alpha particle. An alpha particle consists of 2 protons and 2 neutrons: this means that during this kind of decay, the original atom loses 2 protons and 2 neutrons from its nucleus.

This also means that the atomic number Z of the element (the atomic number is the number of protons in the nucleus) decreases by 2 units in the process, while the mass number A (the mass number is the sum of the number of protons and neutrons) decreases by 4 units.

A sphere is charged with electrons to
pishuonlain [190]
A sphere is charged with electrons to −9 × 10−6 C. The value given is the total charge of all the electrons present in the sphere. To calculate the number of electrons in the sphere, we divide the the total charge with the charge of one electron.

N = 9 × 10−6 C / 1.6 × 10−19 C
N = 5.6 x 10^13
