A horizontal force of 750 N is needed to overcome the force of static friction between a level floor and a 250-kg crate. What is

the acceleration of the crate if the 750-N force is maintained after the crate begins to move and the coefficient of kinetic friction is 0.12?

Answer:

The acceleration of the crate is 1.82\ m/s^2.

Explanation:

Given that,

Force, F = 750 N

Mass of the crate, m = 250 kg

The coefficient of friction is 0.12.

We need to find the acceleration of the crate. The net force acting on the crate is given by :

F=ma\\\\F-f=ma

f is frictional force, f=\mu N=\mu mg

F-\mu mg=ma\\\\a=\dfrac{F-\mu mg}{m}\\\\a=\dfrac{750-0.12\times 250\times 9.8}{250}\\\\a=1.82\ m/s^2

So, the acceleration of the crate is 1.82\ m/s^2. Hence, this is the required solution.

What do scientists do to easily share measurement data they can understand?
malfutka [58]
These days, scientists all over the world use a standard system of measurements.  It's the SI or metric system.

What about scientists in the United States, Liberia, and Burma ? 
These three countries are the only ones in the world that haven't
adopted the metric system.  What do THEY do ?

Easy.  When scientists in those countries are off work, they use the
inches, yards, feet, quarts, miles and gallons that everybody around
them is using.  But when they go to work, they use the same metric
system that everyone else in the world is using.

What are two things that the amount of gravitational force between two object depends on
Amiraneli [1.4K]
1).  the product of the two masses being gravitationally attracted to each other

2).  the distance between their centers of mass

And that's IT.  The gravitational force between them depends on
only those two things, nothing else.
