The first thing you should know to solve this problem is the conversion of pounds to kilograms:
1lb = 0.45 Kg
We can solve this problem by a simple rule of three
1lb ---> 0.45Kg
125lb ---> x
Clearing x we have:
x = ((125) / (1)) * (0.45) = 56.25 Kg.
Answer
her mass expressed in kilograms is 56.25 Kg.
Answer:
Part a)
Part b)
Explanation:
Part a)
If block is sliding up then net force must be zero and friction will be in opposite to the direction of motion of the block
so we have
Part b)
If block is sliding down then net force must be zero and friction will be in opposite to the direction of motion of the block
so we have
Answer:
the answer is A.
Explanation:
Using the laws of newton:
∑F = ma
where ∑F is the sumatory of forces acting in the system, m the mass and a the acelertion of the system.
Then, if the block is moving with constant velocity, its aceleration is equal to 0, so:
∑F = m(0)
∑F = 0
It means that:
F -
= 0
where F is the force applied and is the friction force. Replacing the value of F, we get:
310N - = 0
Finally, solving for :
Answer:
CO2 emissions from fossil fuel burning should be minimized at all cost. The CO2 are gotten when the carbons from hydrocarbons react with air(oxygen). This gas erodes the ozone layer which makes the melting of ice caps faster due to increased amount of heat radiations on the earth. This is the only best and permanent solution to the reduction of the amount of heat rays on the earth which is a global problem.
Objects which reflects back the sunrays could also be inserted into the sea to prevent the melting of the ice caps.
"Balanced" means that if there's something pulling one way, then there's also
something else pulling the other way.
-- If there's a kid sitting on one end of a see-saw, and another one with the
same weight sitting on the other end, then the see-saw is balanced, and
neither end goes up or down. It's just as if there's nobody sitting on it.
-- If there's a tug-of-war going on, and there are 300 freshmen pulling on one
end of a rope, and another 300 freshmen pulling in the opposite direction on
the other end of the rope, then the hanky hanging from the middle of the rope
doesn't move. The pulls on the rope are balanced, and it's just as if nobody
is pulling on it at all.
-- If a lady in the supermarket is pushing her shopping cart up the aisle, and her
two little kids are in front of the cart pushing it in the other direction, backwards,
toward her. If the kids are strong enough, then the forces on the cart can be
balanced. Then the cart doesn't move at all, and it's just as if nobody is pushing
on it at all.
From these examples, you can see a few things:
-- There's no such thing as "a balanced force" or "an unbalanced force".
It's a <em><u>group</u> of forces</em> that is either balanced or unbalanced.
-- The group of forces is balanced if their strengths and directions are
just right so that each force is canceled out by one or more of the others.
-- When the group of forces on an object is balanced, then the effect on the
object is just as if there were no force on it at all.
