The Earth takes (365 and 1/4) days to orbit the sun. That's the length of our 'year'.
Since it's not really possible to make our calendar a quarter of a day longer every year, we make the calendar a <u><em>whole</em></u> day longer every 4 years.
So "Leap years" make up for the extra one-fourth day the Earth takes to orbit the sun.
Answer:
-3.4 m
Explanation:
The displacement is the difference between the final position and the initial position:
4.4 m - 7.8 m = -3.4 m
Answer:
490.5 N
Explanation:
Coefficient of friction is 0.5 since friction force is set to halfway between none and lots. Minimum force is given by multiplying the weight and coefficient of friction
F= kN where k is coefficient of friction while N is weight. Also, N=mg where m is mass and g is acceleration due to gravity.
F=kmg=0.5*100*9.81=490.5 N
