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

1. Calculate the total heat content of 10 kg of ice at -23°C.?
vesna_86 [32]

To solve the problem, we must know the heat capacity of ice and water.

For Cp = 2090 J/kg C

H = mCpT

H = (10 kg) ( 2090 J/ Kg C) ( -23 C)

H = - 480700 J

For water Cp = 4180 j/kg C

H = (100 kg) ( 4180 J/kg C) ( 60 C)

<span>H = 2508000 J</span>

A theory in science is ________.
Veseljchak [2.6K]

Answer:

It would be (a)

Explanation:

A theory is something that can be proved through rigorous and repeated experimentation, while choice (b) sounds tempting i believe it fails at the fact that it says that a theory is an "agreement", sure an agreement could be reached by while trained scientists but that does not necessarily mean that what the scientists agree upon is rigorously tested and repeatable, and so therefore cannot be assumed

That is what I think

Hope this helps :)
