A cardboard box sits on top of a concrete sidewalk where the coefficient of friction between the surfaces is 0.4. The mass of th

e box is 10 Kg and the box is pulled horizontally with a force of 60 N. What is the Gravitational Force on the box? What is the Normal Force? What is the Frictional Force? What is the Acceleration?

Answer:

Fg = 98.1 [N]; N = 98.1 [N]; Ff = 39.24 [N]; a = 2.076[m/^2]

Explanation:

To solve this problem, we must make a free body diagram and interpret each of the forces acting on the box. In the attached diagram we can find the free body diagram.

The gravitational force is equal to:

Fg = (10 * 9.81) = 98.1 [N]

Now by summing forces on the Y axis equal to zero, we can find the normal force exerted by the surface.

N - Fg = 0

N = Fg

N = 98.1 [N]

The friction force is defined as the product of normal force by the coefficient of friction.

Ff = N * μ

Ff = 98.1 * 0.4

Ff = 39.24 [N]

By the sum forces on the x-axis equal to the product of mass by acceleration (newton's second law), we can find the value of acceleration.

60 - Ff = m * a

60 - 39.24 = 10 * a

a = 2.076[m/^2]

Cables and conductors installed on the side of a pole or building shall be protected up to ___feet above finished grade.
Allisa [31]

Answer:

10 feet.

Explanation:

Conductors are considered outside the building when they installed. The requirement of NEC is above 10 feet for the clearance after the final grade for service conductors and cables where they are connected with the building, above the sidewalks and the to other areas which are accessible to the pedestrians.

The speed of sound in air is approximately 340 m/s. The speed of light in air is approximately 3 x 108 m/s. If 10 seconds elapse
olya-2409 [2.1K]

Answer:

3400 m

Explanation:

Both lightning and thunder happen at the same time but one is faster than the other. The distance traveled by a sound can be calculated from its speed such that;

 speed = distance/time, hence, distance = speed x time.

<em>For a thunder with 340 m/s speed and 10 seconds away from lightning, the distance between the thunder and the lightning can be calculated as</em>;

distance = 340 m/s x 10 s = 3400 m
