A 4.00-kg box sits atop a 10.0-kg box on a horizontal table. The coefficient of kinetic friction between the two boxes and betwe

en the lower box and the table is 0.600, while the coefficient of static friction between these same surfaces is 0.800. A horizontal pull to the right is exerted on the lower box, as shown in the figure, and the boxes move together. What is the friction force on the UPPER box?

First, we have to calculate the normal forces on different surfaces.The normal force on the 4.00 kg, N1 = (4)(9.8) = 39.2 N. The normal force on the 10.0 kg, N2 = (14)(9.8) = 137.2 N. Looking at the 10.0 kg block, the static forces that counteract the pulling force equals the sum of the friction from the two surfaces. Fc = N1 * 0.80 + N2 * 0.80 = 141.12 N. Since the counter force is less than the pulling force, the blocks start to move and hence, kinetic frictions are considered.


Therefore, f1 = uk * N1 = (0.60)(39.2) = 23.52 N.

Long Snorkel: Inhalation of a breath occurs when the muscles surrounding the human lungs move to increase the volume of the lung
Mila [183]

Answer:

h = 0.362 m

Explanation:

The pressure equation with depth is

      P₂ = P_{atm} +ρ g h

The gauge pressure is

       P2 -  P_{atm} = ρ g h

This is the pressure that muscles can create

       P₂ -  P_{atm}= 3740 Pa

But still the person needs a small pressure for the transfer of gases, so

      P₂ -  P_{atm} = 3740 - 188 = 3552 Pa

This is the maximum pressure difference, where the person can still breathe,

Let's clear the height

      h = 3552 / ρ g

      h = 3552 / (1000 9.8)

      h = 0.362 m

This is the maximum depth where the person can still breathe normally.
