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.

a city government received a $1 million grant to build swimming pools and skating rinks for youth. based on the data provided in
ivolga24 [154]

We have that for the Question "A city government received a $1 million grant to build swimming pools and skating rinks for youth. based on the data provided in the graph, what is the opportunity cost of building one swimming pool?" it can be said that

OC=2

From the question we are told

A city government received a $1 million grant to build swimming pools and skating rinks for youth. based on the data provided in the graph, what is the opportunity cost of building one swimming pool?

Generally the equation for the Opportunity cost  is mathematically given as

OC=\frac{y_1-y_2}{x_1-x_2}\\\\OC=\frac{2-0}{1-0}\\\\OC=2

Therefore

From the graph of the  question we can ascertain that Opportunity cost

OC=2

A large helium filled balloon is used as the center piece for a graduation party. The balloon alone has a mass of 222 kg and it
inn [45]

Answer:

The buoyant force is 3778.8 N in upward.

Explanation:

Given that,

Mass of balloon = 222 Kg

Volume = 328 m³

Density of air = 1.20 kg/m³

Density of helium = 0.179 kg/m³

We need to calculate the buoyant force acting

Using formula of buoyant force

F_{b}=\rho_{air}\times V_{b}\times g

Where, \rho_{air} = density of air

V = Volume of balloon

g = acceleration due to gravity

Put the value into the formula

F_{b}=1.20\times321\times9.81

F_{b}=3778.8\ N

This buoyant force is in upward direction.

Hence, The buoyant force is 3778.8 N in upward.
