Answer:

μ = 0.385

Explanation:

Given that,

The mass of the student, m = 69 Kg

The horizontal force applied, F = 260 N

The normal force acting on the body, weight = mg = 69g  N

                                                                                    = 676.2 N

The coefficient of friction acting on a body is equal to the force acting on the body to the normal force acting on the body due to gravitation.

The formula for coefficient of friction,

                                    μ =  F / N

Substituting the values in the above equation,

                                     μ = 260 N / 676.2 N

                                        = 0.385

Hence, the  coefficient of friction, μ = 0.385

Explain how tidal forces are causing Earth to slow down.
dybincka [34]

Answer: The tidal forces exerted by the moon are directly associated with the earth's rotation. Due to the strong gravitational pull of the moon, the tidal bulging appears on both the sides on earth and these are region of high tide, and there is gradual rise and fall of sea level.

Because of these tidal effect, the earth is able to rotate only once in each of the orbital period.
