Answer:

(a) 161.57 N

(b) 0.958 m/s^2

Explanation:

Force applied, F = 220 N

mass of crate, m = 61 kg

μ = 0.27

(a) The magnitude of the frictional force,

f = μ N

where, N is the normal reaction

N = m x g = 61 x 9.81 = 598.41 N

So, the frictional force, f = 0.27 x 598.41

f = 161.57 N

(b) Let a be the acceleration of the crate.

Fnet = F - f = 220 - 161.57

Fnet = 58.43 N

According to newton's second law

Fnet = mass x acceleration

58.43 = 61 x a

a = 0.958 m/s^2

Thus, the acceleration of the crate is 0.958 m/s^2.

A 3kg box has 45J of gravitational potential energy, how high is it off the ground?
frez [133]

Answer:

1.53m

Explanation:

Given parameters:

Mass of box  = 3kg

Gravitational potential energy  = 45J

Unknown

Height of the box  = ?

Solution:

To solve this problem;

 Gravitational potential energy = mgh

m is the mass

g is the acceleration due to gravity

h is the height

            45  = 3 x 9.8 x h

            h  = 1.53m

A juggler is practicing with one ball. It takes 2.4 seconds for the ball to leave her hand and return to her hand. How fast did

The kinematics for the vertical launch we can enter the initial velocity is 11.76 m / s

Given parameters

  • Time t = 2.4 s

To find

  • Initial velocity

Kinematics is the part of physics that establishes the relationships between the position, velocity, and acceleration of bodies.

In this case we have a vertical launch

          y = y₀ + v₀ t - ½ g t²

Where y and y₀ are the final and initial positions, respectively, v₀ the initial velocity, g the acceleration of gravity (g = 9.8 m / s²) and t the time

   

With the ball in hand, its position is zero

         0 = 0 + v₀ t - ½ g t²

         v₀ t - ½ g t² = 0

         v₀ = ½ g t

Let's calculate

         v₀ = ½ 9.8 2.4

         v₀ = 11.76 m / s

In conclusion using kinematics for the vertical launch we can enter the initial velocity is 11.76 m / s

Answer:

The offspring is homozygous for eye color.

Explanation:

Brown eyes is the shared allele of both parents (meaning homozygous) and an allele for hair type was not inherited from only one parents but from both however will recieve the dominant trait. (This is my best guess; I haven't studied this in awhile though)

We use towels to dry our body after taking a shower,why?<br><br>​
9966 [12]

Answer:

A wet body has a relatively high concentration of water. When this is transferred to a towel, the large surface area of the towel fabric distributes the water molecules over a much greater surface area, so the relative concentration is lower.
