<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

Katen [24]

Answer:

40 J

Explanation:

c_1 = 4 C

c_2 = 2 C

U_1 = 20 J

The potential energy is directly proportional to the charge of the particle

U\propto c

\dfrac{U_2}{U_1}=\dfrac{c_2}{c_1}\\\Rightarrow U_2=\dfrac{U_1c_2}{c_1}\\\Rightarrow U_2=\dfrac{20\times 4}{2}\\\Rightarrow U_2=40\ J

The potential energy expected is 40 J

Suppose the lift force on the plane in the diagram below was larger than the force of gravity. Which of the following statements
Salsk061 [2.6K]
A because when gravity and the force are equilibrium it tend to be equal or stay at rest or constant velocity. But when the force of a plane is less than the force of gravity it will go down to the ground. Unless when the force of a plane is greater than the force of gravity, the plane will move upward at increasing rate.

Hurricane sandy produced some of the greatest destruction along the new jersey coast in communities situated along narrow strips
FrozenT [24]

The correct answer to fill in the blank would be:

“a barrier island”

Barrier islands are coastal landforms and a category of dune system that are remarkably even or lumpy areas of sand that was formed by wave and tidal actions that are parallel to the mainland coast. Due to this feature, there are no enough sand blockades to minimize the destruction by Hurricane Sandy.

A 57 kg wagon is pulled with a constant net force of 38 N. Calculate the acceleration of the wagon. F = ma
Dahasolnce [82]

Answer:

<h2>0.67 m/s²</h2>

Explanation:

The acceleration of an object given it's mass and the force acting on it can be found by using the formula

a =  \frac{f}{m}  \\

f is the force

m is the mass

From the question we have

a =  \frac{38}{57} =  \frac{2}{3}   \\  = 0.666666...

We have the final answer as

<h3>0.67 m/s²</h3>

Hope this helps you
