Buildings are more dense than the surrounding air. This means that they have more _____ per volume than the air and will stay on

the ground instead of floating up into the atmosphere.
Physics
1 answer:
Zinaida [17]3 years ago
7 0

Answer:

<em>mass</em>

<em></em>

Explanation:

Density is the measure of how much mass of a substance is squeezed into a given volume of that substance. <em>It is the mass per unit volume</em>, and substances with lesser density will float in materials with denser density. Buildings are generally more obviously denser that air, if not we'll see then float upwards into the atmosphere, but that is not the case. Different liquids too can separate and form layers on one another due to their differences in volume.

A worker pushes a box across the floor to the right at a constant speed with a force of 25N. What
icang [17]

Answer:

Friction between the box and the floor is 25N to the left

Explanation:

There are two forces acting on the box along the horizontal direction:

- The force of push applied by the worker, in the forward direction, F

- The force of friction, F_f, acting in the opposite direction (backward)

So the net force acting on the box is

F_{net}=F-F_f

According to Newton's second law of motion, the net force on an object is equal to the product between its mass (m) and its acceleration (a), so we can write:

F_{net}=ma

And so

F-F_f = ma

However, in this case the box is moving at constant speed; this means that its acceleration is zero:

a=0

Therefore we have:

F-F_f=0

Which means

F_f=F

And since we are told that

F=25 N

This means that the force of friction is also 25 N:

F_f=F=25 N

A 75 N box of oranges is being pushed across a horizontal floor. As it moves, it is slowing at a constant rate of 0.90 m/s each
shusha [124]

Answer:

μk = 0.26885

Explanation:

Conceptual analysis

We apply Newton's second law:

∑Fx = m*a (Formula 1)

∑F : algebraic sum of the forces in Newton (N)

m : mass in kilograms (kg)

a : acceleration in meters over second square (m/s²)

Data:

a= -0.9  m/s²,  

g = 9.81 m/s² : acceleration due to gravity

W= 75 N :  Block weight

W= m*g  

m =  W/g = 75/9.8= 7.65 kg :  Block mass

Friction force : Ff

Ff= μk*N

μk: coefficient of kinetic friction

N : Normal force (N)  

Problem development

We apply the formula (1)

∑Fy = m*ay    , ay=0

N-W-25 = 0

N = 75 +25

N= 100N

∑Fx = m*ax    

20-Ff= m*ax    

20-μk*100 = 7.65*(-0.90 )

20+7.65*(0.90) = μk*100

μk = ( 20+7.65*(0.90)) / (100)

μk = 0.26885
