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

An 8.0 cm object is 40.0 cm from a concave mirror that has a focal length of 10.0 cm. Its image is 16.0 cm in front of the mirro
svet-max [94.6K]
 We can rearrange the mirror equation before plugging our values in. 
1/p = 1/f - 1/q. 
1/p = 1/10cm - 1/40cm
1/p = 4/40cm - 1/40cm = 3/40cm
40cm=3p  <-- cross multiplication
13.33cm = p

Now that we have the value of p, we can plug it into the magnification equation.

M=-16/13.33=1.2
1.2=h'/8cm
9.6=h'

So the height of the image produced by the mirror is 9.6cm.
