Why do you need to apply a force in order to get the box to move

Mathematics

Readme [11.4K]2 years ago
4 0

Answer:

The reason one must apply a force to a box in order for the box to move is to overcome the friction generated by the box against the plane the box is sitting.

The box at rest has zero friction against the surface on which it sits.  Once a force is applied, a box's movement is resisted by the friction created from contact with the surface.

In order for the box to move, one must generate more force than is being generated by the friction of the surface onto the box, allowing the box to move.

Cheers.

The lowest point in Death Valley is Badwater at 282 feet below sea level. The highest point in
Finger [1]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Badwater = -282ft

Telescope\ Peak = 11043ft

The position of badwater is negated because it is below sea level

The interpretation of the question, is to calculate the distance between the two given points.

This is calculated as:

Difference = Telescope\ Peak - Badwater

Difference = 11043ft - (-282ft)

Open bracket

Difference = 11043ft+282ft

Difference = 11325ft

<em>Hence, the distance between both is 11325ft</em>

Jim ran 15 miles in 5 days. At this rate, how many days will it take Jim to run 165 miles?
AleksAgata [21]

Answer:

55 days

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Jim ran 15 miles in 5 days

no. of miles ran in 5 days = 15 miles

dividing LHS and RHS by 5

no. of miles ran in 5/5(=1) days = 15/5 miles = 3 miles

no. of miles ran in 1 day =  3 miles

let the no. of days taken to run 165 miles be x   ----A

No of miles ran in x days = x*no. of miles ran in 1 day = 3x miles

thus,  From A

3x  = 165

x = 165/3 = 55

Thus, it took 55 days for JIM to run 165 miles
