Explanation:

The temperature of the solar nebula was decreasing as it moved away from its center. Therefore, only heavy elements could condense in the inner solar system and terrestrial planets could not form with light elements, such as gases. In the outer solar system, the Jovian planets formed mostly with gases, since temperatures were too low to allow rocky compositions.

A horizontal force of 40N is needed to pull a 60kg box across the horizontal floor at which coefficient of friction between floo

Mazyrski [523]

Answer:

Coefficient of friction is $0.068$ .

Work done is $320~J$ .

Explanation:

Given:

Mass of the box ( $m$ ): $60$ kg

Force needed ( $F$ ): $40$ N

The formula to calculate the coefficient of friction between the floor and the box is given by

$F=\mu mg...................(1)$

Here, $\mu$ is the coefficient of friction and $g$ is the acceleration due to gravity.

Substitute $40$ N for $F$ , $60$ kg for $m$ and $9.80$ m/s² for $g$ into equation (1) and solve to calculate the value of the coefficient of friction.
