Answer:

0.196

Explanation:

According to Newton's second law

\sumFx = ma

Fm-Ff = ma

Fm is the moving force

Ff is the frictional force

m is the mass = 9kg

a is the acceleration = 2.4m/s²

Fm = Wsin theta

Fm = 9(9.8)sin25°

Fm = 37.28N

Ff is the frictional force = nmgcos theta

Ff = n(9)(9.8)cos25°

Ff = 79.94n

Substitute the given values into the formula

37.28-79.94n = 9(2.4)

-79.94n = 21.6-37.28

-79.94n = -15.68

n = 15.68/79.94

n = 0.196

Hence the coefficient of kinetic friction between the potted plant and the incline is 0.196

mestny [16]

Answer:

linear density of the string = 4.46 × 10⁻⁴ kg/m

Explanation:

given,

mass of the string = 31.2 g

length of string = 0.7 m

linear density of the string = \dfrac{mass\ of\ string}{length}

linear density of the string = \dfrac{31.2\times 10^{-3}\ kg}{0.7\ m}

linear density of the string = 44.57 × 10⁻³ kg/m

linear density of the string = 4.46 × 10⁻⁴ kg/m

A 0.60 kg rubber ball has a speed of 2.0 m/s at point A, and kinetic energy of 7.5 J at point
aliina [53]
<span>Let's first off calculate the kinetic energy using the formula 1/2MV^2. Where the mass, M, is 0.6Kg. And speed, V, is 2. Hence we have 1/2 * 0.6 * 2^2 = 1.2J. Since kinetic energy is energy due to motion; hence at point B the rubber has a KE of 1.2J and not 7.5J. So I would say that only the Mass and speed is actually true; While it's kinetic energy is not true.</span>
