The neutral pH is 7. Less than 7 indicates an acid and more than 7 indicates a base (up to 14).
<span> NaCl - it's a salt (we can't measure the pH)
H2O - it can be an acid but also a base  (the pH it is almost neutral,meaning close to 7 )
HF - it is a strong acid
</span><span> KOH  - it is a strong base (pH=14)
</span>
                        ↓

He needs to use HF (Hydrogen fluoride) to decrease the pH.

HF is the answer because it is an acid so it decreases overall ph. Did you understand?

Suppose a 48-N sled is resting on packed snow. The coefficient of kinetic friction is 0.10. If a person weighing 660 N sits on t
Annette [7]

Assume the snow is uniform, and horizontal.

Given:

coefficient of kinetic friction = 0.10 = muK

weight of sled = 48 N

weight of rider = 660 N

normal force on of sled with rider = 48+660 N = 708 N = N

Force required to maintain a uniform speed

= coefficient of kinetic friction * normal force

= muK * N

= 0.10 * 708 N

=70.8 N


Note: it takes more than 70.8 N to start the sled in motion, because static friction is in general greater than kinetic friction.

Describe the main reason why the scientific community did not accept Alfred wegener idea of continental drift?
lara31 [8.8K]
<span>I think they were also too skeptic to believe the continent did move or pull apart, even today do you believe that the continents broke from one big flat plate, and that they pulled apart? They also wonder what large force would be responsible for the movement.

It was much later that evidences from plant and animal features that had similarity from two different planets came up that scientists began accepting the idea of continental drift.
And similar rock strata from two different opposite continents, showed similar rock strata.
All these evidences came up much later after Alfred Wengener.

So Alfred Wengener was honored Posthumously</span>
