Answer:

313.6N

Explanation:

Given parameters;

Mass of the body  = 50kg

Coefficient of friction = 0.64

Acceleration due to gravity  = 9.81m/s²

Unknown:

Minimum force needed to move the body = ?

Solution:

To move this body, the minimum force must overcome the frictional force. So, the value of force that equals to that of the frictional force will set the body in motion.

 Frictional force  = Umg

U is the coefficient of friction

m is the mass

g is the acceleration due to gravity

  Now insert the parameters and solve;

            Frictional force  = 0.64 x 50 x 9.8  = 313.6N

{WORTH BRAINLIEST WITH AN EXPLANATION} Janine is a police officer patrolling a street. She drives 2.2 km east, then 4.4 km west,
icang [17]

Answer:

Options (3) and (6)

Explanation:

Janine drives 2.2 km East.

Since, distances measured in the East are positive,

Displacement = 2.2 km

Then she drives 4.4 km west

Displacement = -4.4 km

Followed by 1.7 km in the East

Displacement = 1.7 km

Total displacement = 2.2 - 4.4 + 1.7 = -0.5 km

\overrightarrow{d}=-0.5 km

Total distance covered by Janine = 2.2 + 4.4 + 1.7 = 8.3 km

d = 8.3 km

Therefore, Options (3) and (6) will be the answer.

A 1000-kg whale swims horizontally to the right at a speed of 6.0 m/s. It suddenly collides directly with a stationary seal of m
anzhelika [568]

Answer:

Momentum after collision will be 6000 kgm/sec

Explanation:

We have given mass of the whale = 1000

Initial velocity v = 6 m/sec

It collides with other mass of 200 kg which is at stationary

Initial momentum of the whale = 1000×6 = 6000 kgm/sec

We have to find the momentum after collision

From conservation of momentum

Initial momentum = final momentum

So final momentum = 6000 kgm/sec

Two resistors A and B are arranged in series in one branch of a parallel arrangement. The other branch contains a single resisto
Ganezh [65]

Answer:

Explanation:

A and B are in series , Total resistance = Ra + Rb

This resistance is in parallel with single resistor C

Equivalent resistance Re = Rc x ( Ra + Rb ) / [Rc + ( Ra + Rb )]

Now this combination is in series in single resistance D .

Total resistance = Rd + Re

= Rd + { Rc x ( Ra + Rb ) / [Rc + ( Ra + Rb )] }

Which actions are evidence that a chemical reaction has occurred? Check all that apply. a change in color the formation of a pre
NeTakaya

Answer:

  1. a change in color
  2. the formation of a precipitate
  3. the formation of bubbles

Explanation:

In a chemical reaction, there is always a rearrangement of atoms within the molecules of reactants to form new products. Such a change is different from changes in the physical form of molecules, e.g. shape.

Thus, according to this criteria, only three options are correct in the given question. A change in color is definitely an indication of chemical reaction because the emission of light before and after cannot be changed unless molecules are rearranged to form a new chemical. Likewise, precipitates form when a reaction takes place between chemically dissolved molecules to form less or not dissolvable compounds. In the end, the configuration of bubbles also indicates that the reaction has taken place because new gases are being released.

On the other hand, change in shape is a physical change because the composition doesn't need to also been changed. An example is the ice formation from water. Same is the case with "change of clear liquid to cloudy" because the addition of non-reactive substances could change the nature of liquid to cloudy however the reaction doesn't need to have taken place.
