<u>Answer:</u>

Option (a)

<u>Explanation :</u>

A stage hand starts sliding a large piece of stage scenery originally at rest by pulling it horizontally with a force of 176 N.

Hence Force applied  \text { Fapplied }=176 \mathrm{N}

Force on piece of scenery \mathrm{F}_{\mathrm{g}}=490 \mathrm{N}

\Sigma \mathrm{F} \mathrm{y}=\mathrm{F} \mathrm{n}-\mathrm{Fg}=0

\mathrm{Fn}=\mathrm{Fg}

\mathrm{FS}_{\mathrm{max}}=\mathrm{F}_{\mathrm{applied}}

µk = \frac{\mathrm{Fs} \max }{\mathrm{Fn}}

=  \frac{\text { Fapplied }}{\mathrm{Fg}}

=\frac{176}{490} =0.36

coefficient of static friction is 0.36

The octet rule states that in chemical compounds atoms tend to have
Marrrta [24]

Answer:

In chemical compounds, atoms tends to have the electron configuration of a noble gas.

Explanation:

The noble gases are unreactive because of their electron configurations. This noble gas neon has the electron configuration of 1s22s22p6 . It has a full outer shell and cannot incorporate any more electrons into the valence shell.

The octet rule states that atoms tend to form compounds in ways that give them eight valence electrons and thus the electron configuration of a noble gas. An exception to an octet of electrons is in the case of the first noble gas, helium, which only has two valence electrons.

Statement A: Area of a rectangle with measured length = 2.536 mm and width = 1.4 mm.
pochemuha

Explanation:

Formula for calculating the area of a  rectangle A = Length *width

For statement A;

Given area of a rectangle with measured length = 2.536 mm and width = 1.4 mm.

Area of the rectangle = 2.536mm * 1.4mm

Area of the rectangle = 3.5504mm²

The rule of significant figures states that we should always convert the answer to the least number of significant figure amount the given value in question. Since 1.4mm has 2 significant figure, hence we will convert our answer to 2 significant figure.

Area of the rectangle = 3.6mm² (to 2sf)

For statement B;

Given area of a rectangle with measured length = 2.536 mm and width = 1.41 mm.

Area of the rectangle = 2.536mm * 1.41mm

Area of the rectangle = 3.57576mm²

Similarly, Since 1.41mm has 3 significant figure compare to 2.536 that has 4sf, hence we will convert our answer to 3 significant figure.

Area of the rectangle = 3.58mm² (to 3sf)

Based on the conversion, it can be seen that 3.6mm²  is greater than 3.58mm², hence the area of rectangle in statement A is greater than the area of the rectangle in statement B.

Jake calculates that the frequency of a wave is 230 hertz, and its wave is moving at 460 m/s. What is the wavelength of the wave
Nesterboy [21]

Wavelength = (speed) / (frequency) = (460 m/s) / (230/sec) = <em>2 meters</em>
