The horizontal force : f = k*N
k- coefficient of friction
k = f /N
N = m * g = 45 kg * 9.81 m/s² = 441.45 N
k = 25 N : 441.45 N = 0.057
Answer C) 0.057
Answer:
The difference in the length of the bridge is 0.42 m.
Explanation:
Given that,
Length = 1000 m
Winter temperature = 0°C
Summer temperature = 40°C
Coefficient of thermal expansion 
We need to calculate the difference in the length of the bridge
Using formula of the difference in the length

Where,
= temperature difference
=Coefficient of thermal expansion
L= length
Put the value into the formula


Hence, The difference in the length of the bridge is 0.42 m.
