Answer:

d=1.07m

Explanation:

Calculate Initial Kinetic Energy:

KE = 1/2*m*v^2

KE= 0.5*(10.3kg)*(1.64m/s)^2 = 13.85J

Calculate work overcoming friction:

W = F*d = mu*m*g*d

W = (0.128)*(10.3kg)*9.80m/s^2)*d

W = 12.92*d

Equate the two since all of the kinetic energy is used up in working against friction:

W = KE

12.92d = 13.851J

Solve for d:

d= (13.851J)/(12.92) = 1.07 m

If I want to calculate the normal force of an object on two legs but the weight of the object is not uniform throughout, how do
RoseWind [281]

Use the right equation. To calculate the normal force of an object at an angle, you need to use the formula: N = m * g * cos (x) For this equation, N refers to the normal force, m refers to the object's mass, g refers to the acceleration of gravity, and x refers to the angle of incline.

Ivanshal [37]

Answer:

The correct answer is "The median year built is greater than the mean year built., The median year built is between 1980 and 2000."

Explanation:

Wake country is located in the north Carolina, it is the most fastest growing country among the united nations. The town of Cary and also city of Raleigh is the 8th and the 15th fastest growing cities. Hence, the city was growing along with infrastructures as well as with the population. For proper shelter more number of the homes were built. The literacy rates were also good. A quite good number of schools and colleges are there in the city. With better medical facilities.
