The answer is GAS. In a gas, the particles are in a completely random motion in any direction. And it is not solid. Hope I helped. Good luck
The answer to this question is false.
Answer: Mr. Whitmore would need 7 or more students ( 7.17) to make the box start moving and go outside
Explanation:
Given that;
friction force of ground box = 68 N
student of 7th grade = n
Whitmore can apply a force of 25 N
every other 7th grade student can apply a force of 6 N.
now
friction force = forced applied by whitmore + total force ny 7th grade student
we substitute
68 = 25 + 6n
6n = 68 - 25
6n = 43
n = 43/6
n = 7.17
Therefore Mr. Whitmore would need 7 or more students ( 7.17) to make the box start moving and go outside
The given question is incomplete. The complete question is as follows.
A box of oranges which weighs 83 N is being pushed across a horizontal floor. As it moves, it is slowing at a constant rate of 0.90 m/s each second. The push force has a horizontal component of 20 N and a vertical component of 25 N downward. Calculate the coefficient of kinetic friction between the box and the floor.
Explanation:
The given data is as follows.
= 20 N, = 25 N, a = -0.9
W = 83 N
m =
= 8.46
Now, we will balance the forces along the y-component as follows.
N = W +
= 83 + 25 = 108 N
Now, balancing the forces along the x component as follows.
= ma
= 7.614 N
Also, we know that relation between force and coefficient of friction is as follows.
=
= 0.0705
Thus, we can conclude that the coefficient of kinetic friction between the box and the floor is 0.0705.
