A box of bananas weighing 40.0 N rests on a horizontal surface. The coefficient of static friction between the box and the surfa

ce is 0.40 and the coefficient of kinetic friction is 0.20.
(a) If no horizontal force is applied to the box and the box is at rest, how large is the friction force exerted on it?
(b) What is the magnitude of the friction force if a monkey applies a horizontal force of 6.0N to the box and the box is initially at rest?

Answer:

(a) = 0 N

(b) = 2.4 N

Explanation:

given

box of banana weight = 40.0 N

coefficient of static friction  μ = 0.40

coefficient of kinetic friction = 0.20

a).  when no horizontal force is applied .

according to Newton 's third law of motion If there is no force applied to the box,so the frictional  force exerted is 0 N

b) magnitude of friction force

box and the box is initially at rest

    friction force =.Static friction coefficient × weight of the box

      friction force = 0.40 × 6

       friction force =  2.4 N

A particle with a charge of 2e moves between two points which have a potential difference of 75V. What is the change in potentia
Sonbull [250]
Electric potential energy is defined as Ep=Q*V where Q is the magnitude of the charge and V is the potential difference. So when a charge moves between the points that have a potential difference, it's energy changes. 

In our case: 

Q=2e=2*(-1.6*10^-19) C
V=75 V

Ep=(-3.2*10^-19)*75

Ep=-2.4*10^-17 J

The change in potential energy of the charge is -2.4*10^-17 J

The line that is drawn perpendicular to the point at which a wave intersects a boundary is know as the
fomenos
<span>The line that is drawn perpendicular to the point at which a wave intersects a boundary is know as the Normal .

When the normal is drawn, the incident ray makes an angle with it known as the angle of incidence and the reflected ray makes an angle with it known as the angle of incidence. These angles are always equal.
 
The refracted ray makes an angle with the normal known as angle of refraction. The sin of angle of incidence to the sin of angle of refraction is called the refractive index( </span>μ= <span>sin i / sin r) .

hope all of it helps you!</span>

A bird flies 3.7 meters in 46 seconds, what is its speed?
victus00 [196]

Answer:

Speed is 0.08 m/s.

Explanation:

Given the distance that the bird flies = 3.7 meters

The time is taken by the bird to fly the 3.7 meters = 46 seconds  

We have given distance and time. Now we have to find the speed at which the bird flies. So, to calculate the speed of the bird we have to divide the distance by the time.  

Below is the formula to find the speed.

Speed = Distance / Time

Now insert the given value in the formula.

Speed = 3.7 / 46 = 0.08 m/s
