Considering that the book is moving with constant speed, the force applied by Anna must be the same that the friction force:

F = F_R = F\cdot \mu_k\cdot N

If we clear the previous equation:

\mu_k = \frac{F}{F_R} = \frac{19.5\ N}{51.7\ N} = \bf 0.38

The force applied to the book is equal to the normal force of the book multiplied by the coefficient of kinetic friction. <span>The normal force is equal to the weight of the book. </span>In this case, the formula with the given data is equal to 19.5N = 51.7N * coeff. of friction. The coefficient of friction is equal to 0.38.

A spring is characterized by a spring constant of 60 N/m. How much potential energy does it store, when stretched by 1.0 cm?
Anestetic [448]

Answer:

3.0 x10^-3 J

Explanation:

The potential energy of a spring is given by PE = (0.5)k*x^2  

Where

K: Spring Constant = 60 N/m

x: displacement of the spring from its equilibrium position = 1cm = 0.01m

Then PE = 0.5(60)(.01)^2 = 0.003J = 3.0 x10^-3 J

There is no sound in the vacuum of space. Why? Sound must travel through something that vibrates. There is no energy in space. T
Blababa [14]

Sound must travel through a medium/body. Space is a vacuum so there is no medium/body for sound to travel through, so there is no sound.
