Answer:

A. 243 N

Explanation:

Friction is the force that opposes the relative motion between systems that are in contact.

This friction force that opposes the motion of the oak chest across the oak surface will be equal and opposite to that exerted by the woman.

First find the normal force which is the force that would point directly upwards to support weight of the block.

Normal force, N= mg where m is the mass of the chest and g is the acceleration due to gravity.

Given m=40 kg and g=9.80 m/s²

N force=40×9.80 =392N

Then find the force of friction which is given by the formula;

<em>F=μN where μ is friction coefficient for the  oak chest  and N is the normal force on the chest</em>

Given <em>μ</em>=0.620  and N force = 392 N then it will be;

F=0.620× 392 =243.04 N

Answer : 243 N

marin [14]

Answer:

Explanation:

There are 4 forces. These are 1) Gravity, 2) Weak Nuclear Force, 3) Electromagnetism, and 4) Strong Nuclear Force. 

Order of strength from weakest to strongest: Gravity, Weak Nuclear Force, Electromagnetism, Strong Nuclear Force

Type of Range:

Gravity - Unlimited range

Weak Nuclear Force - Limited range

Electromagnetism - Infinite range

Strong Nuclear Force - Limited Range

Found in:

Gravity - Exists between all objects with mass

Weak Nuclear Force - Governs over beta decays like the emission of electron or positron

Electromagnetism - the attraction found between particles that are electrically charged

Strong Nuclear Force - Found in atoms and subatomic particles. It is responsible for holding the atoms' nucleus together.

Why can biofuels be described as renewable resources?​
gulaghasi [49]

Answer:

Biofuel is fuel that is produced through contemporary processes from biomass, rather than by the very slow geological processes involved in the formation of fossil fuels, such as oil. Since biomass technically can be used as a fuel directly, some people use the terms biomass and biofuel interchangeably. 

Biofuel, any fuel that is derived from biomass—that is, plant or algae material or animal waste. Since such feedstock material can be replenished readily, biofuel is considered to be a source of renewable energy, unlike fossil fuels such as petroleum, coal, and natural gas.

Which statement best defines inertia? An object's motion is unaffected by any external forces acting upon it. An object responds
svetoff [14.1K]

Answer:

An object responds to a force by tending to move in the direction of that force

Explanation:

The inertia of a body can be defined with the help of Newton's second law

          F = m a

Where F is the applied force, a is the acceleration of the body and m is the mass

the force and the acceleration are vectors that point in the same direction and m is a scalar constant that relates the two vectors, this scalar constant is called masses and it measures the resistance of the bodies to the change of motion.

From the previous statement we see that the statement that best describes inertia is:

An object responds to force by tending to move in the direction of the force.

zepelin [54]

Answer:

mass of ball 1=m1

mass of ball 2=m2

velocity of ball=r1w1

velocity of ball 2=r2w2

Total angular momentum=m1*v1+m2*v2

but

v1=r1*w1

v2=r2*w2

Substitute values in above equation

Total angular momentum of the system=m1*r1*w1+m2*r2*w2
