Answer:
<em>The force of kinetic friction between Kiera and the floor is 9.24 N</em>
Explanation:
<u>Friction Force</u>
When an object is moving and encounters friction in rough surfaces, it loses acceleration and/or velocity because the friction force opposes motion.
The friction force when an object is moving on a horizontal surface is calculated by:

Where μ is the coefficient of static or kinetics friction and N is the normal force.
If no forces other then the weight and the normal are acting upon the y-direction, then the weight and the normal are equal in magnitude:
N = W
Thus, the friction force is:

Kiera, the W=330 N girl steps in water that has a coefficient of friction of μ=0.028 with the floor.
The kinetic friction force is:
Fr = 0.028*330
Fr = 9.24 N
The force of kinetic friction between Kiera and the floor is 9.24 N
The stake, height and tether length of the tent form a right angle triangle where the tether length is the hypotenuse.
Applying Pythagoras theorem:
length² = height² + (stake distance)²
length = √(8² + 2²)
length = 8.5 feet
Answer:
Approximately
.
Explanation:
The formula for the kinetic energy
of an object is:
,
where
is the mass of that object, and
is the speed of that object.
Important: Joule (
) is the standard unit for energy. The formula for
requires two inputs: mass and speed. The standard unit of mass is
while the standard unit for speed is
. If both inputs are in standard units, then the output (kinetic energy) will also be in the standard unit (that is: joules,
Convert the unit of the arrow's mass to standard unit:
.
Initial
of this arrow:
.
That's the same as the energy output of this bow. Hence, the efficiency of energy transfer will be:
.
Average speed=total distance travelled/time
