Are you sure the question is asking for the weight of the box? Sounds very much like a coefficient of friction-y sort of question to me.

Nevertheless, the <em>weight</em> of the box (assuming we're on Earth) is equal to <em>w=mg</em> so either 5 x 9.81 or 5 x 10 depending on what your qualification takes g to be.

Taking it to be 9.81 I will work out the coefficient of friction as well just incase that's what the question is really asking for:

20 = u x 49.05
u=20/49.05
u=0.41 to 2sf

Suppose two objects are gravitationally attracted to each other with some force F. If the mass of object 1 is multiplied by a fa
RoseWind [281]

If F = Gm₁m₂/d², and we change m₁ to 5m₁ and m₂ to 2m₂, then the new magnitude of the gravitational force is

F' = G (5m₁) (2m₂) / d²

F' = 10  Gm₁m₂ / d²

but this is really just F' = 10F. So J is the correct choice.

A cannon fired horizontally at 20 m/s from the top of a cliff lands 80m away. how tall is the cliff
Scorpion4ik [409]

Answer:

The height of the cliff is, h = 78.4 m

Explanation:

Given,

The horizontal velocity of the projectile, Vx = 20 m/s

The range of the projectile, s = 80 m

The projectile projected from a height is given by the formula

                            <em> S = Vx [Vy + √(Vy² + 2gh)] / g </em>

Therefore,  

                            h = S²g/2Vx²

Substituting the values

                             h = 80² x 9.8/ (2 x 20²)

                                = 78.4 m

Hence, the height of the cliff is, h = 78.4 m

1. An ideal ammeter should have a resistance of______________ while an ideal voltmeter should have a resistance of _____________
Masja [62]

Answer:

Explanation:

1. An ideal ammeter has very small or almost zero resistance. As the resistance is small the maximum current can pass through the ammeter which it can read it.

2. An ideal voltmeter has very large or infinite resistance. As the resistance is very large so the maximum voltage drops across the resistor and gives the accurate reading.

find the pressure exerted by a force of 8000 newtons on an area of 25m square..give your answer in Newtown/m2​
baherus [9]

Answer:

Pressure = 320 N/m²

Explanation:

Given the following data;

Force = 8000 Newton

Area = 25 m²

To find the pressure, we would use the following formula;

Pressure = force/area

Substituting into the formula, we have;

Pressure = 8000/25

Pressure = 320 N/m²
