Answer:

184N

Explanation:

Frictional force is defined as a force of opposition. This force opposes the moving force. The body placed on a plane surface has a frictional force proportional to the normal reaction force acting on the body.

Mathematically, Ff = nR where;

Ff is the frictional force

n is the coefficient of static friction between the luggage and the floor.

R is the normal reaction which is equal to the weight (W) of the body.

W = mg

Weight = 23×10 = 230N

Since weight = normal reaction

Normal reaction = 230N

coefficient of friction between the luggage and the floor = 0.8

Frictional force (Ff) = 0.8×230

Frictional force = 184N

Therefore, the force of static friction acting on the luggage is 184N

Answer:

The force of static friction acting on the luggage is, Fₓ = 180.32 N

Explanation:

Given data,

The mass of the luggage, m = 23 kg

You pulled the luggage with a force of, F = 77 N

The coefficient of static friction of luggage and floor, μₓ = 0.8

The formula for static frictional force is,

Fₓ = μₓ · η

Where,

η - normal force acting on the luggage 'mg'

Substituting the values in the above equation,

Fₓ = 0.8 x 23 x 9.8

= 180.32 N

Hence, the minimum force require to pull the luggage is, Fₓ = 180.32 N

Uranium-235 decays to thorium-231 with a half-life of 700 million years. When a rock was formed, it contained 6400 million urani

Dahasolnce [82]

Answer:

proof in explanation

Explanation:

First, we will calculate the number of half-lives:

$n = \frac{t}{t_{1/2}}$

where,

n = no. of half-lives = ?

t = total time passed = 2100 million years

$t_{1/2}$ = half-life = 700 million years

Therefore,

$n = \frac{2100\ million\ years}{700\ million\ years}\\\\n = 3$

Now, we will calculate the number of uranium nuclei left ( $n_u$ ):

$n_u = \frac{1}{2^{n} }(total\ nuclei)\\\\n_u = \frac{1}{2^{3} }(6400\ million)\\\\n_u = \frac{1}{8}(6400\ million)\\\\n_u = 800\ million$

and the rest of the uranium nuclei will become thorium nuclei ( $u_{th}$ )

$n_{th} = total\ nuclei - n_u\\n_{th} = 6400\ million-800\ million\\n_{th} = 5600\ million$

dividing both:

$\frac{n_{th}}{n_u}=\frac{5600\ million}{800\ million} \\\\n_{th} = 7n_u$

<u>Hence, it is proven that after 2100 million years there are seven times more thorium nuclei than uranium nuclei in the rock.</u>

D ....Do you remember your teacher going over different physical and chemical reactions....It is a chemical reaction because it will never go back to the previous state...therefore your correct and it is a chemical reaction.
