Answer:

90m

Explanation:

Let g = 9.8 m/s2. The friction is the product of normal force and its coefficient, and normal force is equal to gravity

F_f = \mu N = \mu mg

The acceleration caused by friction, according to Newton's 2nd law:

a_f = F_f / m = \mu g = 0.5 * 9.8 = 4.9 m/s^2

For the friend to slide over, then the centripetal acceleration must be equal to friction acceleration.

Since you are driving at a constant speed of 21 m/s, then your maximum radius of curvature can be calculated using the following formula:

a_c = a_f = v^2/r = 4.9

r = v^2/4.9 = 21^2/4.9 = 90 m

Answer:

59.18 kg

Explanation:

use f=ma

f= 580 N

a = 9.8 m/s 2

weigh(m) doesn't change only force(F) changes

Jenny is studying a compound that has two oxygen atoms and one nitrogen atom. Which statement describes the subscripts she will
STALIN [3.7K]

Answer:

She will use one 2 as a subscript.

Explanation:

Nitrogen is a chemical element with the symbol "N" and has an atomic number of 7. Thus, it is found in group (5) of the periodic table and as such it has 5 electrons in its outermost shell. Therefore, nitrogen has two (5) valence electrons.

On the other hand, oxygen has an atomic number of 8 and with the symbol "O."

When nitrogen and oxygen react chemically, they produce a compound known as nitrogen dioxide NO_{2}

In this scenario, Jenny is studying a compound that has two oxygen atoms and one nitrogen atom. Therefore, the statement which describes the subscripts she will use to write the chemical formula is, she will use one 2 as a subscript.

N + O_{2} ------>  NO_{2}

Where: 2 represents the subscript of oxygen.

A house is lifted from its foundations onto a truck for relocation. The house is pulled upward by a net force of 2850 N. This fo
Gwar [14]

Answer:

m = 95000 kg

Explanation:

Given that,

Net force acting on the house, F = 2850 N

Initial speed, u = 0

Final speed, v = 15 cm/s = 0.15 m/s

We need to find the mass of the house. Let the mass be m. We know that the net force is given by :

F = ma

Where

a is the acceleration of the house.

So,

F=m\dfrac{v-u}{t}\\\\m=\dfrac{Ft}{(v-u)}\\\\m=\dfrac{2850\times 5}{(0.15-0)}\\\\m=95000\ kg

So, the mass of the house is equal to 95000 kg.
