Better weight distribution and more stability
The friction is 2.5N. The Net force is 10 N - 2.5 N .= 7.5 N.
acceleration = 7.5 / 5 = 1.5 m/s^2
Answer:
A system is a group of interrelated interacting, or interdependent parts that for a complex whole. A system is a group of interrelated interacting, or interdependent parts that for a complex whole.
Explanation: Hope this helps ;)
It is fine to use the equation given by Plitter, since we are told that the mass is about the same as it is now, and I seriously doubt the original question wants the student to go into relativistic effects, electron degeneracy pressure and magnetic effects that govern a real white dwarf star.
There is no need to make it unnecessarily complicated, when the question is set at high school level. The question asks, given a particular radius, and a given mass, what will the density be (which in this case will be the average density). To answer the question, one needs to know the mass of the sun (which is about 2×1030 Kg. One needs to convert the diameter to a radius, and then calculate the spherical volume of the white dwarf. Then one can use the formula given above, namely density=mass/volume
