Answer:

Fr = 20 (N)

Explanation: See atached file ( free body diagram)

As for Newton´s low

∑ Fy  =  0

-mg + N = 0        ⇒  - 40 + N = 0       ⇒ N  = 40 [Newtons]

by definition :  Fr = μs * N        ⇒  Fr = 0,5 * 40      ⇒  Fr = 20 (N)

∑ Fx  =  0   body is at rest

Fe - Fr = 0

Fr > Fe

Fr > 12 (N)  the body is at rest

Vince weighs 160 pounds, and his friend Nadir weighs 140 pounds. Nadir calculated that his weight on another planet would be abo
prisoha [69]

Answer:

C) 64lb

Explanation:

use the linearity method to find the weight of nadir on another planet, it is applied as follows.

Nadir Weight in earth ⇒ Nadir weight in another planet

Vince Weigh in eart  ⇒  X

our goal is to find the weight of vince in another planet (X), for this we multiply the diagonal that continents the data and divide among the remaining

140pounds    ⇒   56lb

160pounds    ⇒ X

X=\frac{(160)(56)}{140} =64lb

Vince weigh on the other planet is C) 64lb

A porter can carry 40 bricks of 10 N load of each. He can carry up to 75m in 40 sec, calculate his power.​
alexira [117]

Answer:

750W

Explanation:

40×10= 400N

work done= force × distance

=400 × 75

=30000 J

Power= work done/ time

= 30000 ÷ 40

= 750 W

Which of the following is an example of kinetic mechanical energy?
nata0808 [166]

Answer:

A

Explanation:

Kinetic energy must be moving. Potential energy has the ability to move but is not doing so at the moment.

A is likely the answer. But there's lots involved in that kind of motion.

B If the ball is elevated, it implies it is not moving yet. It has potential energy.

C Again, the spring is compressed. It will push something when it moves, but it is not moving yet.

D The load gun's bullet is not moving. It's still potential energy.

E. The mouse trap is set, but it is not moving. When the mouse eats the bait then it's potential energy will transform into kinetic energy.

Light propagating in the glass n1= 1.65 wall of an aquarium tank strikes the interior edge of the wall with incidence angle 19.0
jonny [76]
We can solve this using Snell's Law which is represented by the equation:
sin θ₁ / sin θ₂ = n₂ / n₁

From the problem, we can substitute values and solve for the angle of refraction.
sin 19 / sin θ₂ = 1.65 / 1
θ₂ = 11.38°

The angle of refraction would be 11.38°.
