Answer:

67.28 N

Explanation:

Given that,

The mass of an box, m = 15.2 kg

The coefficients of static and kinetic frictions for plastic on wood are 0.55 and 0.36, respectively.

The force of static friction,

$F_s=\mu_smg\\\\F_s=0.55\times 15.2\times 9.8\\\\F_s=81.92\ N$

The force of kinetic friction,

$F_k=\mu_kmg\\\\F_k=0.36\times 15.2\times 9.8\\\\F_k=53.62\ N$

Net force acting on the object is :

F = 120.9 -53.62

= 67.28 N

Hence, this is the required solution.

How to draw the ray diagram? Pls answer

weqwewe [10]

1. Pick a point on the top of the object and draw two incident rays traveling towards the mirror. Using a straight edge, accurately draw one ray so that it passes exactly through the focal point on the way to the mirror. Draw the second ray such that it travels exactly parallel to the principal axis.

From what height must an oxygen molecule fall in a vacuum so that its kinetic energy at the bottom equals the average energy of

alexandr1967 [171]

Answer:

The value is $h = 11930 \ m$

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

The temperature is $T = 300 \ K$

Generally the root mean square speed of the oxygen molecules is mathematically represented as

$v = \sqrt{\frac{3 * R * T }{M} } = \sqrt{ 2 * g * h }$

Here R is the gas constant with a value $R = 8.314 \ J\cdot K^{-1} \cdot \ mol^{-1}$

M is the molar mass of oxygen molecule with value $M = 0.032 \ kg /mol$

$\frac{3 * 8.314 * 300 }{0.032} = 2 * 9.8 * h$

=> $h = 11930 \ m$

Genetic information responsible for physical characteristics such as eye color, height, hair color, and skin color can be found

fredd [130]

Answer: Genetic information responsible for physical characteristics such as eye color, height, hair color, and skin color can be found in an organism's <u>DNA.</u>

<u>Explanation:</u>

Our genetic information is stored in DNA. DNA (Deoxyribonucleic acid) molecule is a double helix structure which carries information which used in development and growth of body and determines physical characteristics such as eye color, height, hair color and skin color.

An object has the acceleration graph shown in (Figure 1). Its velocity at t=0s is vx=2.0m/s. Draw the object's velocity graph fo

timama [110]

Answer:

Explanation:

We may notice that change in velocity can be obtained by calculating areas between acceleration lines and horizontal axis ("Time"). Mathematically, we know that:

$v_{b}-v_{a} = \int\limits^{t_{b}}_{t_{a}} {a(t)} \, dt$

$v_{b} = v_{a}+ \int\limits^{t_{b}}_{t_{a}} {a(t)} \, dt$

Where:

$v_{a}$ , $v_{b}$ - Initial and final velocities, measured in meters per second.

$t_{a}$ , $t_{b}$ - Initial and final times, measured in seconds.

$a(t)$ - Acceleration, measured in meters per square second.

Acceleration is the slope of velocity, as we know that each line is an horizontal one, then, velocity curves are lines with slopes different of zero. There are three region where velocities should be found:

Region I (t = 0 s to t = 4 s)

$v_{4} = 2\,\frac{m}{s} +\int\limits^{4\,s}_{0\,s} {\left(-2\,\frac{m}{s^{2}} \right)} \, dt$
