The block moves with constant velocity: for Newton's second law, this means that the resultant of the forces acting on the block is zero, because the acceleration is zero.

We are only concerned about the horizontal direction, and there are only two forces acting along this direction: the force F pushing the block and the frictional force F_f acting against the motion. Since their resultant must be zero, we have:
F-F_f = 0
The frictional force is
F_f = \mu mg
where
\mu=0.4 is the coefficient of kinetic friction
mg=400 N is the weight of the block. 

Substituting these values, we find the magnitude of the force F:
F=F_f = \mu mg=(0.4 )(400 N)=160 N

jek_recluse [69]

Answer:

A(n)  <u>living wage</u> is the idea that people should be able to purchase the essentials of life by working a forty-hour workweek. Many local municipalities have as a result set higher minimum wages than the federally mandated minimum wage to accomplish this goal.

Explanation:

Living wage is the idea given to reduce poverty specially in cities with higher costs. It's based on the fact that one who works forty hours per week, he or she should be able to afford the basic needs of life that includes the water, food and shelter. Research has shown that the implementation of this concept has played the role in reducing poverty and enhancing the quality of life of workers. Countries like New-Zealand and united kingdom has supported this concept.

HELPPPPP MEEEEE PLEASE I NEED TO SUBMIT IN LESS THAN 10 MINSS

Answer:

X = 2146.05 m

Explanation:

We need to understand first what is the value we need to calculate here. In this case, we want to know how far from the starting point the package should be released. This is the distance.

We also know that the plane is flying a certain height with an specific speed. And the distance we need to calculate is the distance in X with the following expression:

X = Vt   (1)

However we do not know the time that this distance is covered. This time can be determined because we know the height of the plain. This time is referred to the time of flight. And the time of flight can be calculated with the following expression:

t = √2h/g   (2)

Where g is gravity acceleration which is 9.8 m/s². Replacing the data into the expression we have:

t = √(2*2500)/9.8

t = 22.59 s

Now replacing into (1) we have:

X = 95 * 22.59

<h2>X = 2146.05 m</h2>

This is the distance where the package should be released.

Hope this helps
