Answer:
<em>The force of kinetic friction between Kiera and the floor is 9.24 N</em>
Explanation:
<u>Friction Force</u>
When an object is moving and encounters friction in rough surfaces, it loses acceleration and/or velocity because the friction force opposes motion.
The friction force when an object is moving on a horizontal surface is calculated by:
Where μ is the coefficient of static or kinetics friction and N is the normal force.
If no forces other then the weight and the normal are acting upon the y-direction, then the weight and the normal are equal in magnitude:
N = W
Thus, the friction force is:
Kiera, the W=330 N girl steps in water that has a coefficient of friction of μ=0.028 with the floor.
The kinetic friction force is:
Fr = 0.028*330
Fr = 9.24 N
The force of kinetic friction between Kiera and the floor is 9.24 N
Answer:
P = 1333.33 N
Explanation:
The pressure exerted by the boy on the floor can be calculated by the following equation:
where,
P = Pressure exerted by the boy = ?
F = Force Applied = Weight of Boy = 40 kg = 40 N (since 1 kg = 1N)
A = Area of application of force = 2(Area of one show) = 2(6 cm x 25 cm)
A = 2(0.06 m x 0.25 m) = 0.03 m²
Therefore,
<u>P = 1333.33 N</u>
