Answer:

Explanation:

To get the person Moving you have to overcome the static (means not moving) friction coefficient. U(static)

To get the person going at the same speed you have to overcome the kinetic friction coefficient. U(Kinetic)

Force to get him moving is 198 N. Force = ma = U(static)Mg

combining the 2 equations you get 198N = U(static)* 55kg *9.8m/s^2 Solve for U(static)

Same equation to keep him moving except with the dynamic force and the dynamic U

175N= U(kinetic)*55kg*9.8m/s^2 Solve (U dynamic)

Which type of foot PPE must you wear if electrical shock is ever a possibility with your job?

ira [324]

The appropriate PPE(personal protective equipment) to be worn for foot protection against electric shock is boots retrofitted with rubber soles. Rubber does not conduct electricity and so will safeguard against electric shocks.

Other personal protective equipment used in a lab or industry can include safety glasses, rubber gloves, protective clothing and masks and respirators. PPE goes hand in hand with personal behaviour, personal grooming and housekeeping.
