The Friction Force that acts on a sliding bookcase is -120 N

<u>Explanation:</u>

  • Frictional force is the force developed by the two surfaces where they contact and slide against each other. They mainly affected by amount of force impelled them together and by the angle and position of the object.
  •             Frictional Force F = Coefficient of friction * normal force
  • At a constant velocity, there will be no acceleration and the net force will be zero.

               Net Force        = m * a = 0

               120 - Friction   = 0

               Friction Force  = -120 N

A ball is dropped from a cliff. determine how far the ball fell after 7.5 seconds
grin007 [14]

Answer:

The ball fell 275.625 meters after 7.5 seconds

Explanation:

<u>Free fall </u>

If an object is left on free air (no friction), it describes an accelerated motion in the vertical direction, powered exclusively by the acceleration of gravity. The formulas needed to compute the different magnitudes involved are

V_f=gt

\displaystyle y=\frac{gt^2}{2}

Where V_f is the final speed of the object in free fall, assumed positive downwards, t is the time elapsed since the release and y is the vertical distance traveled by the object

The ball was dropped from a cliff. We need to calculate the vertical distance the ball went down in t=7.5 seconds. We'll use the formula

\displaystyle y=\frac{gt^2}{2}

\displaystyle y=\frac{(9.8)(7.5)^2}{2}

Y=275.625\ m

PLEASE HELP
hichkok12 [17]

The correct answer is 195.6 N

Explanation:

Different from the mass (total of matter) the weight is affected by gravity. Due to this, the weight changes according to the location of a body in the universe as gravity is not the same in all planets or celestial bodies. Moreover, this factor is measured in Newtons and it can be calculated using this simple formula W (Weight) = m (mass) x g (force of gravity). Now, leps calculate the weigh of someone whose mass is 120 kg and it is located on the moon:

F = 120 kg x 1.63 m/s2

F= 195.6 N

How does the carbon rod of a cell beomes a positive<br>terminal?​
ivann1987 [24]

Answer:

In the middle of a dry cell, is a rod made of carbon. Around the carbon rod is a chemical paste. At the same time, the carbon rod becomes positively charged. When this happens, electrical current flows out of the cell when a conductor is attached between the cell's positive and negative terminals.

one of the ways, covered in the article and in class, that we charged an object was rubbing it against carpet on the floor true
astraxan [27]

Answer:

It is possible to statically charge objects by rubbing it against carpet fibers, but I'm not sure if that was in the article that you read.

Explanation:

Static charge can build up via carpet fibers.
