Answer:

C. 180 N

Explanation:

m = mass of the blocking sled = 60 kg

\mu = Coefficient of kinetic friction = 0.30

f = kinetic frictional force acting on the sled

kinetic frictional force acting on the sled is given as

f = \mu mg = (0.30) (60) (10) = 180 N

F =Force applied

For the sled to move at constant speed, the applied force must be same as the frictional force

F = f\\F = 180 N

How can two substances be made up of the same two elements but have very different properties?
asambeis [7]
So, basically, it might have different quantities, such as Carbon Dioxide (CO2) and Carbon Monoxide (CO), which are both made up of Carbon and Oxygen, but Carbon Monoxide has less oxygen. And they both have different properties, like CO is poisonous.

A sled is accelerating down a hill at a rate of 1 m s2 . If the mass of the sled is suddenly cut in half and the net force on th
mihalych1998 [28]
We have that F=ma from the 2nd Newton law where F is the force, m is the mass and a is the acceleration. Suppose we have that F' is the new force and m' is the new mass. Then, we have that a'=F'/m' still, by rearranging Newton's law. We are given that F'=2F and m'=m/2. Hence,
a'= \frac{2F}{ \frac{m}{2} } = \frac{4F}{m} = 4\frac{F}{m}
But now, we have from F=ma, that a=F/m and we are given that a=1m/s^2.
We can substitute thus, a'=4a=4*1m/s^2=4m/s^2.

Suppose the ring rotates once every 4.30 ss . If a rider's mass is 58.0 kgkg , with how much force does the ring push on her at
Stells [14]

Answer:

422.36 N

Explanation:

given,

time of rotation = 4.30 s

T = 4.30 s

Assuming the diameter of the ring equal to 16 m

radius, R = 8 m

v = \dfrac{2\pi R}{T}

v = \dfrac{2\pi\times 8}{4.30}

  v = 11.69 m/s

now, Force does the ring push on her at the top

- N - m g = \dfrac{-mv^2}{R}

N + m g = \dfrac{mv^2}{R}

N = \dfrac{mv^2}{R}- m g

N = m(\dfrac{v^2}{R}- g)

N = 58\times (\dfrac{11.69^2}{8}- 9.8)

N = 422.36 N

The force exerted by the ring to push her is equal to 422.36 N.
