Two wooden crates rest on top of one another. The smaller top crate has a mass of m1 = 21 kg and the larger bottom crate has a m
Andrews [41]

Answer:

2.35 m/s²

Explanation:

Given that

Mass of the smaller crate, m₁ = 21 kg

Mass of the larger crate, m₂ = 90 kg

Tensión of the rope, T = 261 N

We know that the sum of all forces for the two objects with a force of friction F and a tension T are:

(i) m₁a₁ = F

(ii) m₂a₂ = T - F, where m and a are the masses and accelerations respectively.

1) no sliding can also mean that:

a₁ = a₂ = a

This makes us merge the two equations written above together as:

m₂a = T - m₁a

If we then solve for a, we would have something like this

a = T / (m₁+m₂)

a = 261 / (21 + 90)

a = 261 / 111

a = 2.35 m/s²

Therefore, the needed acceleration of the small crate is 2.35 m/s²

Classify each possible hypothesis about a medicinal aloe vera plant as falsifiable or non-falsifiable.
pychu [463]

Answer:

Aloe vera is a succulent plant species ( with fleshy water storing tissue) belonging to the genus Aloe.

It is used in many products ( including beverages, cosmetic products as gel, medicinal ointments). Its juice is quite bitter in taste. It is known to be the best skin moisturizer and can be used for healing wounds by enhancing the renewal of damaged cells. It is also used as an anticarcinogen, thus reduces the chances of cancer.

Thus, the given hypothesis can be classified as  falsifiable ( which is proven wrong) or non-falsifiable ( which is proven right) in the following way-

Falsifiable-

Aloe vera juice tastes  better than carrot juice.

Non Falsifiable-

Aloe vera gel is the best  natural skin moisturizer.

Aloe vera gel can heal  wounds by boosting  cell renewal.

Drinking aloe juice can  reduce the risk of lung  cancer.
