A 29 kg chair initially at rest on a horizontal floor requires a 171 N horizontal force to set it in motion. Once the chair is i

n motion, a 135 N horizontal force keeps it moving at a constant velocity. The acceleration of gravity is 9.81 m/s 2 . a) What is the coefficient of static friction between the chair and the floor? 017 (part 2 of 2) 10.0 points b) What is the coefficient of kinetic friction between the chair and the floor?

Answer:

a)   μ = 0.602   and b)   μ = 0.475

Explanation:

a) Let's use Newton's second law for this exercise. The reference system the x axis is parallel to the floor and the axis and perpendicular.

Y Axis

      N-W = 0

      N = W

X axis

    F-fr = ma

The friction force equation is

    fr = μN

At the point where the movement begins the acceleration is zero

Let's replace

     F = μ (mg) = 0

    F = μ mg

    μ = F / mg

    μ = 171/29 9.8

    μ = 0.602

b) in this case we have the same formula, but the friction is kinetic

     μ = F2 / mg

     μ = 135/29 9.8

     μ = 0.475

What happens to a current when the electric field in the wire increase
Gnom [1K]

Answer:

If the voltage is increased then the electric field is higher, and electron velocity (average) is proportional to this field. Then you have an increase in speed. And current is total charge passing per time unit, so current is proportional to velocity value of charge (and to voltage in resistors and wire).

What molecular geometry would be expected for f2 and hf?
Kaylis [27]
The molecular geometry of both F2 and HF is linear.

There are only two atoms which are covalently bonded and thus, the bonding scheme with the atoms looks like this;

F --- F

H---F

So, both are linear.

Calculate the work done by a force of 30 N in lifting a load of 2 kg to a height of 10 m (g = 10 m/s2)
Mars2501 [29]

Answer:

<u>300 J</u>

Explanation:

Given :

  1. Applied force = 30 N
  2. Mass = 2 kg
  3. Height = 10 m
  4. g = 10 m/s²

Work done by the force :

  • Work done = Force x Displacement
  • Work done = mg x h
  • Work done = 30 N x 10 m
  • Work done = <u>300 J</u>

<u></u>

<u><em>Note</em></u> :

  • What you have calculated is the work done by gravitational force on the object (that too, incorrectly)
  • But in the end, it asks for work done by the force of 30N
  • Hence, the given answer ~
