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
Do you have a book about it? or if you have a dictionary?
Answer:
a. mechanical; require a medium to travel through
Explanation:
Longitudinal, transverse and surface waves are types of mechanical waves. For example, within the longitudinal waves are the sound waves, which needs a medium to propagate like the air. This is why sound does not travel in a vacuum.
And an example of a transverse wave is the waves that form in the water when a rock is thrown (ripples), these waves need a medium (the water) to propagate.
On the other hand, electromagnetic waves such as light waves do not need a medium to propagate, this is why we can see the light of distant stars because their light travels through the vacuum until it reaches us.
So, the answer is:
Transverse, surface, and longitudinal waves are all mechanical waves because they require a medium to travel through .
