Hello! The answer is B and B.

When a system is in equilibrium, this means that the net force/total force = 0N. Hence you need to add 10N to the 10N force acting towards the right so that the 20N acting in opposite directions will ‘cancel’ out to get a net force of 0N.

Average velocity is calculated by distance travelled divided by time. Hence, velocity = 50m/5s = 10ms^1

After the body has begun shivering, what explains why it would stop shivering?

Oksana_A [137]

The body shivers to produce energy and it uses the energy to keep it warm. The body would stop shivering when it has produced enough energy to keep it warm and the atmosphere around it has got warmer

A football player with a mass of 88 kg and a speed of 2.0 m/s collides head-on with a player from the opposing team whose mass i

Ket [755]

Answer:

Speed of another player, v₂ = 1.47 m/s

Explanation:

It is given that,

Mass of football player, m₁ = 88 kg

Speed of player, v₁ = 2 m/s

Mass of player of opposing team, m₂ = 120 kg

The players stick together and are at rest after the collision. It shows an example of inelastic collision. Using the conservation of linear momentum as :

$m_1v_1+m_2v_2=(m_1+m_2)V$

V is the final velocity after collision. Here, V = 0 as both players comes to rest after collision.

$v_2=-\dfrac{m_1v_1}{m_2}$

$v_2=-\dfrac{88\ kg\times 2\ m/s}{120\ kg}$

$v_2=-1.47\ m/s$

So, the speed of another player is 1.47 m/s. Hence, this is the required solution.

Name two laboratory equipment in the picture . b ) Identify two mistakes that these people in the laboratory above are doing

pishuonlain [190]

The two laboratory equipment in the picture are beaker and chemicals.The people in the picture are not wearing any protective gears while (a) working in the laboratory (b) Throwing the chemicals on the floor.

Among the many items that would be considered general lab equipment are pipettes, scales, centrifuges, Bunsen burners, freezers, hot plates, incubators, coolers, stirrers, water baths, and fume hoods

The dangers of working in a laboratory setting include:

Chemical hazards: Handling toxic substances can cause irritation and carcinogenicity.

Biological hazards: Biological hazards include hazards from working with small animals, working with blood borne pathogens and working with biological agents, such as viruses and bacteria.

Physical hazards: Physical hazards include exposure to noise, poor posture and the explosibility and flammability of substances.

Safety hazards: Safety hazards include unbalanced centrifuges, danger when handling hot sterilized items and electrical hazards, such as shock, explosions, blasts and electrocutions.

Allergy hazards: A common allergy hazard in the laboratory setting is a latex allergy, as many of the materials used in a laboratory setting are latex.

A block with mass m is pulled horizontally with a force F_pull leading to an acceleration a along a rough, flat surface.

Simora [160]

Answer:

$\mu_k=\frac{a}{g}$

Explanation:

The force of kinetic friction on the block is defined as:

$F_k=\mu_kN$

Where $\mu_k$ is the coefficient of kinetic friction between the block and the surface and N is the normal force, which is always perpendicular to the surface that the object contacts. So, according to the free body diagram of the block, we have:

$N=mg\\F_k=F=ma$

Replacing this in the first equation and solving for $\mu_k$ :

$ma=\mu_k(mg)\\\mu_k=\frac{a}{g}$
