It must be sliding friction, because the fish is already in motion.
If the desk doesn't move, then it's not accelerating.
If it's not accelerating, then the net force on it is zero.
If the net force on it is zero, then any forces on it are balanced.
If there are only two forces on it and they're balanced, then they have equal strengths, and they point in opposite directions.
So the friction on the desk must be equal to your<em> 245N</em> .

Explanation:
Answer:
v = 2.45 m/s
Explanation:
first we find the time taken during this motion by considering the vertical motion only and applying second equation of motion:
h = Vi t + (1/2)gt²
where,
h = height of cliff = 15 m
Vi = Initial Vertical Velocity = 0 m/s
t = time taken = ?
g = 9.8 m/s²
Therefore,
15 m = (0 m/s) t + (1/2)(9.8 m/s²)t²
t² = (15 m)/(4.9 m/s²)
t = √3.06 s²
t = 1.75 s
Now, we consider the horizontal motion. Since, we neglect air friction effects. Therefore, the horizontal motion has uniform velocity. Therefore,
s = vt
where,
s = horizontal distance covered = 4.3 m
v = original horizontal velocity = ?
Therefore,
4.3 m = v(1.75 s)
v = 4.3 m/1.75 s
<u>v = 2.45 m/s</u>
Weight and mass are used synonymously on earth because the value of g is constant on the earth because the weight of a body is the amount of force exerted by the Earths gravity on an object of finite mass. And, the mass of an object gives the amount of matter in the body and is measured in kilograms.
