B. 9.8 N
C. 59 N
D. 290 N

when sled just start to move the force on the sled will be equal to the static friction

So here we need to find the value of static friction

We know that

m = 30 kg

$\mu_s = 0.20$

now we know that normal force on the block is counterbalanced by weight of the block

$F_n = mg$

$F_n = 30*9.8$

now in order to find the friction force we can use

$F_s = \mu_s * F_n$

$F_s = 0.20 * 30 * 9.8$

$F_s = 59 N$

so it requires 59 N of force to move the sled

The lung volume that represents the maximum amount of exchangeable air is the: <u>vital capacity</u>

<u></u>

The vital capacity is the volume of air that can be taken into the lungs by inhaling and expelling air by inspiration and expiration.

<h3>What are the lungs? </h3>

The lungs are one of the largest organs of the body and are in charge of the respiratory function. They have a spongy appearance and are located in the thorax, protected by the ribs, one on each side of the heart.

A laser beam enters a 12.0 cm thick glass window at an angle of 33.0° from the normal. The index of refraction of the glass is 1

Alenkinab [10]

Answer:

The time is 0.563 ns.

Explanation:

Given that,

Index of refraction of glass = 1.41

Distance = 12.0 cm

Angle = 33.0°

We need to calculate the refraction angle

Using Snell's law

$n_{1}\sin\theta=n_{r}\sin\theta$

put the value into the formula

$1\times\sin33=1.41\sin\theta$

$\sin\theta=\dfrac{1\times\sin33}{1.41}$

$\theta=22.71^{\circ}$

We need to calculate the velocity of beam in glass

Using formula of velocity

$v=\dfrac{c}{n}$

Put the value into the formula

$v=\dfrac{3\times10^{8}}{1.41}$

$v=2.13\times10^{8}\ m/s$

We need to calculate the time

Using formula of distance

$v=\dfrac{d}{t}$

$t=\dfrac{12.0\times10^{-2}}{2.13\times10^{8}}$

$t=5.63\times10^{-10}\ sec$

$t=0.563\times10^{-9}\ sec$

$t=0.563\ ns$

Hence, The time is 0.563 ns.

There is a 12 v potential difference between the positive and negative ends of the jumper cables, which are a short distance apa

steposvetlana [31]

The electric potential energy of the electron depends on the potential difference applied between the two ends of the cable. Indeed, the electric potential energy of a charge is given by
$U=q \Delta V$
where q is the magnitude of the charge, while $\Delta V$ is the potential difference applied. So, U depends on $\Delta V$ .

How do particles move differently in transverse waves and in surface water waves?

elixir [45]

The particles always move parallel and perpendicular to the waves. The waves which are in the water moves a circle. Both up and down and back and forth.

Good luck :)
