A horizontal force of 100 N is used to pull a crate, which weighs 500 N, at constant velocity across a horizontal floor. What is

the coefficient of kinetic friction?
Physics

Answer:

0.2

Explanation:

Horizontal force=100N

Weight of crate=500 N

We have to find the coefficient of kinetic friction.

Normal ,N=Weight=500N

Horizontal force,F_x=\mu_kN

Where F_x=Horizontal force

N=Normal force

\mu_k=Coefficient of kinetic friction

Substitute the values in the formula

100=\mu_k(500)

\mu_k=\frac{100}{500}=0.2

Hence, the coefficient of kinetic friction =0.2

bekas [8.4K]

Answer:

current, voltage

Explanation:

Resistors can both be connected in series and parallel configuration. when a resistor is connected serially, the same amount of current flows through each resistor element but the voltage across each resistor is determined by the magnitude of the resistance of each resistor. However, in a parallel connection, the same voltage is applied across each resistor but different current.

A parallel-plate capacitor has plates of area A. The plates are initially separated by a distance d, but this distance can be va
ohaa [14]

Answer:

d' = d /2

Explanation:

Given that

Distance = d

Voltage =V

We know that energy in capacitor given as

U=\dfrac{1}{2}CV^2

C=\dfrac{\varepsilon _oA}{d}

U=\dfrac{1}{2}\times \dfrac{\varepsilon _oA}{d}\times V^2

If energy become double U' = 2 U then d'

U'=\dfrac{1}{2}\times \dfrac{\varepsilon _oA}{d'}\times V^2

2U=\dfrac{1}{2}\times \dfrac{\varepsilon _oA}{d'}\times V^2

2\times \dfrac{1}{2}\times \dfrac{\varepsilon _oA}{d}\times V^2=\dfrac{1}{2}\times \dfrac{\varepsilon _oA}{d'}\times V^2

2 d ' = d

d' = d /2

So the distance between plates will be half on initial distance.

Draw an arrow that points from the earth pole toward polaris
IRINA_888 [86]
The polaris is a star which appear to stand still while the rest of the stars move due to the rotation of the earth.If u are standing at the north pole the polaris would be directly above you.To find the polaris u must first find the big dipper which is like a bowl with handle and the move like 5 time to find the polaris

Which of these most likely represents a chemical change? water boiling sugars digested by saliva mud drying to dirt ice cream me
mote1985 [20]
I think the correct answer would be <span> sugars digested by saliva. This describes a chemical change since new substances are produced since reaction happens due to the enzymes in the saliva. Hope this answers the question. Have a nice day.</span>

Write balanced nuclear equation for the decay of strontium 94 into yttrium
Dmitriy789 [7]

The nuclear decay equation is _{38}^{94}Sr \rightarrow _{39}^{94}Y + e^- + \overline{\nu}

Explanation:

First of  all, we look at the periodic table to see what is the atomic number of the two elements involved.

We notice that:

  • The atomic number of strontium is 38
  • The atomic number of yttrium is 39

This means that in the decay, a neutron from the nucleus of strontium transforms into a proton (because the atomic number, which is the number of protons, increases by 1 unit).

Therefore, this means that the decay involved is a beta-minus decay, in which a neutron converts into a proton emitting an electron (to conserve the charge) alongside an anti-neutrino.

Therefore, the balanced nuclear decay equation is:

_{38}^{94}Sr \rightarrow _{39}^{94}Y + e^- + \overline{\nu}

where the mass number (94) does not change, since the number of nucleons (protons+neutrons) remains the same.
