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

I need help with this please
kondaur [170]

Answer:

1. The respiratory system functions when our involuntary nervous system sends impulses to the muscles in the diaphragm; thereby, causing the lungs to expand and contract.

2. The respiratory system oxygenates the blood which is vital for bodily function as oxygenated blood is carried from your lungs to the left side of your heart, to be circulated throughout the body. Furthermore deoxygenated blood is carried back to the right side of your heart to get oxygenated once more.

3. The other body systems that are crucial for the lungs to function are the nervous system and the muscular system.

4. without the raspatory system the body wouldn't receive any oxygen and the brain would slowly die. therefore, without the brain the heart would stop functioning and atrophy etc.

Jeff is a landscaping contractor and lifts a rock weighing 600 pounds by wedging a board under the rock. Jeff weighs 150 pounds
jonny [76]

Answer: 4

The mechanical advantage is the ratio of the force exerted  by the object to the force applied to do work on it.

Here, Jeff tried to lift a rock weighing 600 pounds by wedging board under the rock. Jeff who weighs 150 pounds uses all his weight to exert force on lever and lift rock.

Mechanical advantage, M.A.=\frac{weight\hspace{1mm}of\hspace{1 mm}rock}{weight\hspace{1mm}of\hspace{1 mm}Jeff}=\frac{600 pounds}{150 pounds}=4.

Therefore, the mechanical advantage that lever provided to Jeff in lifting rock is 4.
