Answer:

let the coefficient of friction be ß

Explanation:

from \: third \: law \: of \: solid \: friction \\ friction =  \beta  \times R \\ where \: R \: is \: the \: normal \: reaction \\ 46 = 0.30 \times R \\ R =  \frac{46}{0.30}  \\ R = 153.33 \: N \\ but \: R = mg \\ where \: mg \: is \: the \: weight \\ hence \\ weight, W = 153.33 \: N

A bird flies 3.7 meters in 46 seconds, what is its speed?
victus00 [196]

Answer:

Speed is 0.08 m/s.

Explanation:

Given the distance that the bird flies = 3.7 meters

The time is taken by the bird to fly the 3.7 meters = 46 seconds  

We have given distance and time. Now we have to find the speed at which the bird flies. So, to calculate the speed of the bird we have to divide the distance by the time.  

Below is the formula to find the speed.

Speed = Distance / Time

Now insert the given value in the formula.

Speed = 3.7 / 46 = 0.08 m/s

If two asteroids moved closer together, what would be the result on the gravitational force each asteroid exerts on the other?
spayn [35]
Gravitational force depends on inverse square law. That is, gravitational force is inversely proportional to square of distance between asteroids.
As distance between them decreases, gravitational force increases. Hence A is correct.

likoan [24]

Answer: 1175 J

Explanation:

Hooke's Law states that "the strain in a solid is proportional to the applied stress within the elastic limit of that solid."

Given

Spring constant, k = 102 N/m

Extension of the hose, x = 4.8 m

from the question, x(f) = 0 and x(i) = maximum elongation = 4.8 m

Work done =

W = 1/2 k [x(i)² - x(f)²]

Since x(f) = 0, then

W = 1/2 k x(i)²

W = 1/2 * 102 * 4.8²

W = 1/2 * 102 * 23.04

W = 1/2 * 2350.08

W = 1175.04

W = 1175 J

Therefore, the hose does a work of exactly 1175 J on the balloon

Describe the difference between contact forces and field forces.
Salsk061 [2.6K]
Contact forces has to be touching for it to be an actual force. A field force does not have to be touching but it does have to be acting on particles at different positions in a space.
