A sled that has a mass of 8 kg is pulled at a 50 degree angle with a force of 20 N. The force of friction acting on the sled is

vitfil [10]

The acceleration of the sled will be 1.30 m/s². Force is defined as the product of mass and acceleration.

<h3>What is force?</h3>

Force is defined as the push or pulls applied to the body. Sometimes it is used to change the shape, size, and direction of the body.

Given data;

m(mass of sled)=8 kg

Θ is the inclination of force= 50°

Force of friction,f=2.4 N.

The applied force at the given angle is resolved into the two-component as;

$\rm F_h=F cos \theta \\\\ F_h= 20 cos 50 ^0 \\\\ F_h= 12.85 \ N$

$\rm F_v=F sin \theta \\\\ F_v=20 sin 50^0 \\\\ F_v=15.32 \ N$

The net vertical force is zero;

$\rm F_N=mg-Fsin50^0 \\\\ \rm F_N=8 \times 9.81 -15.32 \\\\ F_N=63.1 \ N \\\\$

From Newton's second law the net force as;

$\rm \sum F_{net}=ma \\\\ Fcos 60^0-f =ma \\\\ a=\frac{12.855-2.4}{8} \\\\a = 1.30 \ m/s^2$

Hence, the acceleration of the sled will be 1.30 m/s².

I'm writing a story about Granny using old-fashioned laundry bluing to freshen dingy yellow clothes. I would like to explain WHY

Katena32 [7]

By combining blue with yellow light is like combining blue light with red and green light. The result of combining these three primary colors of light is to produce white light.

<h3>What is laundry bluing ?</h3>

Laundry bluing is a product adds a trace amount of blue dye to white fabric during laundering to improve its appearance.

Bluing products in higher concentrations can darken jeans and other blue cloth.

The blue overpowered the yellow to reflect white (at least the appearance of white to the human eye).

Blue and yellow are complementary colors that combine to reflect white, Fabrics.

Here,

Yellow light is a combination of red and green light. So combining blue with yellow light is like combining blue light with red and green light. The result of combining these three primary colors of light is to produce white light.
