Find the force that would be required in the absence of friction first, then calculate the force of friction and add them together.  This is done because the friction force is going to have to be compensated for.  We will need that much more force than we otherwise would to achieve the desired acceleration:

F_{NoFric}=ma=0.39kg \times0.18 \frac{m}{s^2}  =0.0702N

The friction force will be given by the normal force times the coefficient of friction.  Here the normal force is just its weight, mg

F_{Fric}=0.39kg \times 9.8 \frac{m}{s^2} \times 0.21=0.803N

Now the total force required is:

0.0702N+0.803N=0.873N

Given: G = 6.672 × 10−11 N · m2 /kg2 Io, a satellite of Jupiter, has an orbital period of 1.24 days and an orbital radius of 4.1
Dahasolnce [82]

Answer:

Mass of Jupiter = 4.173×10^15kg

Explanation:

Using Kepler's 3rd law, it states that the orbital period T is related to the distance,r as:

T^2 = GM/4 pi × r^3

Where G = universal gravitational constant

r = radius

M = masd of jupiter

Rearranging the formular to make M the subject of formular

T^2 × 4 pi = G M × r^3

(T^2 × 4 pi) / (G× r^3) = M

(1.24^2 × 4 × 3.142) /(6.672×10^-11)(4.11×10^8)^3

M = 19.32 /6.672×10^-11)(4.11×10^8)^3

M = 19.32 / 4.63 ×10^15

M = 4.173×10^15kg

While visiting the beach, you enjoy the warm ocean water, but the sand burns your feet. That night you walk along the beach and
garik1379 [7]

The answer would be B..

Since sand can heat up quickly, it will also cool off quickly. But water takes a long time to heat up and cool down.

Sound travels at about 360 meters/sec. What is the wavelength of sound with a
ollegr [7]

<u>Answer:</u>

0.24 m

<u>Explanation:</u>

Given:

Wave velocity ( v ) = 360 m / sec

Frequency ( f ) = 1500 Hz

We have to calculate wavelength ( λ ):

We know:

v = λ / t [ f = 1 / t ]

v = λ f

= > λ = v / f

Putting values here we get:

= > λ = 360 / 1500 m

= > λ = 36 / 150 m

= > λ = 0.24 m

Hence, wavelength of sound is 0.24 m.

A basketball rolls without slipping (starting from rest) down a ramp. If the ramp is sloped by an angle of 4 degrees above the h
slavikrds [6]

Answer:

11.7 m/s

Explanation:

To find its speed, we first find the acceleration of the center of mass of a rolling object is given by

a = gsinθ/(1 + I/MR²) where θ = angle of slope = 4, I = moment of inertia of basketball = 2/3MR²

a = 9.8 m/s²sin4(1 + 2/3MR²/MR²)

  = 9.8 m/s²sin4(1 + 2/3)

  = 9.8 m/s²sin4 × (5/3)

  = 1.14 m/s²

To find its speed v after rolling for 60 m, we use

v² = u² + 2as where u = initial speed = 0 (since it starts from rest), s = 60 m

v = √(u² + 2as) = √(0² + 2 × 1.14 m/s × 60 m) = √136.8 = 11.7 m/s
