The force required is 319 N

Explanation:

The force of static friction is a force that acts an object on a surface, when this object is pushed by another force to put it in motion. The direction of the force of friction is opposite to the direction of the force of push, and its value increases as the force of push increases, up to a maximum value given by:

F_f = \mu W

where

\mu is the coefficient of friction

W is the weight of the object

Therefore, in order to put the object in motion, the force applied must be greater than this value.

For the pile of leaves in this problem, we have:

\mu = 0.55 (coefficient of friction)

W=580 N (weight of the leaves)

Substituting, we find:

F=(0.55)(580)=319 N

How would you describe the appearance of the substance after the phase change?
Leona [35]

Answer:

Substances can change phase—often because of a temperature change. At low temperatures, most substances are solid; as the temperature increases, they become liquid; at higher temperatures still, they become gaseous. The process of a solid becoming a liquid is called melting.

In science, Bob learns that the energy of a wave is directly proportional to the square of the waves amplitude. If the energy of
KIM [24]
The energy of a wave is directly proportional to the square of the waves amplitude. Therefore, E = A² where A is the amplitude. This therefore means when the amplitude of a wave is doubled the energy will be quadrupled, when the amplitude is tripled the energy increases by a nine fold and so on.
Thus, in this case if the energy is 4J, then the amplitude will be  √4 = 2 .

I need the answer to this question what has the student plotted on the vertical axis?
expeople1 [14]

Answer:

The correct option is D

Explanation:

In trying to achieve what the student wanted to see, which is to see the relationship between the weight the cord can hold and how long the cord will stretch. Since the origin of the graph is from zero, the value plotted on the vertical axis would be just the length caused by each weights. Thus, <u>the original length would have to be subtracted from the measured length to determine the actual length caused by the weight added to the cord</u>.

Consider an elevator with a table and a book on top of the table. The mass of the table is 10kg and the mass of the book is 2kg.
Step2247 [10]

Newton's second law allows us to find the force of the block on the table is 126 N

Newton's second law says that the net force is proportional to the product of the mass and the acceleration of the body

                Σ F = m a

Where the bold letters indicate vectors, m is the mass and the acceleration of the body

A free body diagram is a diagram where the forces are represented without the details of the bodies, in the attached we can see a free body diagram of the system.

Let's start by finding the acceleration of the elevator with kinematics  

                 v = v₀ + a t

                 a = \frac{v-v_o}{a}  

Where v and v₀ are the current and initial velocity, respectively, at acceleration and t is the time

                 a = \frac{8-1}{2}

                 a = 3.5 m / s²

Let's write Newton's second law for each body

The book

                N₂ - W₂ + N₁ = m a

               

Table

                N₁ - W₁ - W₂ = M a

                W₁ = Mg

                W₂ = mg

                N₁ = (M + m) g + M a

                N₁ = (10 + 2) 9.8 + 10 3.5

                N₁ = 152.6 N

This is the reaction of the earth to the support of the block and the table

               N₂ = ma + m g  - N₁

               N₂ = m ( a +g) - N₁  

               N₂ = 2 (3.5 + 9.8) - 152.6

               N₂ = 26.6 - 152.6

               N₂ = -126 N

The negative sign indicates that the direction is opposite to the one assigned, this is the action of the block on the table.

In conclusion using Newton's second law we can find the forces of the block on the table is 126 N

A physics student tests the theory of projectile motion by leaping off a 225 meter tall building. She runs off the building hori
tamaranim1 [39]
In this item, we are given with the x-component of the velocity. The y-component is equal to 0 m/s. The time it takes for it to reach the volume can be related through the equation,

   d = V₀t + 0.5gt²

Substituting the known values,

  225 = (0 m/s)(t) + (0.5)(9.8)(t²)

Simplifying,
 
   t = 6.776 s

To determine the distance of the student from the edge of the building, we multiply the x-component by the calculated time.


   range = (12.5 m/s)(6.776 s)

   range = 84.7 m

<em>Answer: 84.7 m</em>
