Answer:

The coefficient of static friction,  μ = 0.153

Explanation:

Given data,

The mass of the parcel, m = 20 kg

The acceleration of the lorry, a = 1.5 m/s²

The normal force acting on the parcel,

                                       f = m x g

                                         = 20 x 9.8

                                        = 196 N

The static frictional force acting on the lorry,

                                   F = 20 x 1.5

                                      = 30 N

The coefficient of static is

                     μ = F / f

                        = 30 / 196

                        = 0.153

Hence, the coefficient of static friction,  μ = 0.153

GuDViN [60]

Answer: Technician B is right.

Explanation:

Evacuation process is used in refrigeration systems to remove moisture, air and non-profit condensable gases in order to achieve maximum function of the system.

vacuum pump is used to draw the sealed AC system into a vacuum. Evacuation of a refrigerant system also helps to maintain pressure, this is so as pulling a vacuum on the system is simply removing matter (mostly air and nitrogen) from inside the system so that the pressure inside drops below atmospheric pressure.
