The frictional force is 39.4 N

Explanation:

We can solve this problem by applying Newton's 2nd law of motion: in fact, the net force acting on the block is equal to the product between its mass and its acceleration. So we can write

\sum F = ma

where

\sum F is the net force

m is the mass

a is the acceleration

Here we know that the box is moving with constant velocity, so its acceleration is zero:

a=0

This means that the net force is also zero:

\sum F=0

The net force on the block is given by the applied force, forward, and the frictional force, backward:

\sum F = F_a-F_f=0

where

F_a=39.4 N is the applied force

F_f is the frictional force

Therefore, solving for F_f,

F_f=F_a=39.4 N

No.

Since repeated measurements are taken and the average and 95% confidence interval are calculated, the possibility of the lack of agreement being a random error has been minimized or even eliminated.

<h3>What is a random error?</h3>

Random error is defined as the deviation of the total error from its mean value due to chance.

Random errors can result from the instrument not being precise or from mistakes by the researcher.

Random errors can be minimized by taking multiple readings and averaging the results.

Since repeated measurements are taken and the average and 95% confidence interval are calculated, the possibility of the lack of agreement being a ransom error has been minimized.

poizon [28]

Answer:

The finding suggests that

Sheena have an implicit belief that men are stronger than women.

Explanation:

Implicit Association Test:

In the field of social psychology, this test is used to determine the power of a person to associate between different objects in an implicit way. For example, are colored people good or bad?

  • So this test finding suggests that Sheena have an implicit belief that men are stronger than women by checking her response towards strong words.

An internal combustion engine uses fuel, of energy content 44.4 MJ/kg, at a rate of 5 kg/h. If the efficiency is 28%, determine
Alika [10]
Efficiency =  Power Output / Power Input

Power Input = Rate of Energy input = 44.4 MJ/kg * 5 kg/h

 = 222 MJ/h

But 1 hour = 3600seconds

222 MJ/h = 222 MJ/3600s =  0.061667 MW              J/s = Watts

Power input = 0.061667 MW = 61 667 W

From  Efficiency =  Power Output / Power Input

   28% =  Power Output / 61667

   Power Output = 0.28 * 61667

   Power Output = 17266.76 W

    Power Output ≈ 17 267 W

   Rate of heat rejection = Power Input - Power Output

                                   =  61667 - 17267 = 44400 W

   Rate of heat rejection = 44 400W.

The change in the momentum of an object is represented by the following formula:
Ede4ka [16]

Hi there!

Recall that:

Change in momentum = mass × change in velocity

Or:

Δp = mΔv = m(vf - vi)

Plug in the given values. We can assign east to be positive and west to be negative in this instance (Velocity is a vector with direction).

Thus:

Δp = (1)(-21 - 10) = -31 kgm/s OR 31 kgm/s WEST.

The correct answer is B.

Change in momentum is EQUIVALENT to the quantity of IMPULSE.

The correct answer is H.
