A stunt man is being pulled, at a constant velocity, along a rough road by a cable attached to a truck. The cable is parallel to

the ground. The mass of the stunt man is 109 kg, and the coefficient of kinetic friction between the road and the stunt man is 0.870. Find the tension in the cable.

Answer:

the tension in the cable= 929.33N

Explanation:

the tension in the cable is equivalent to the frictional force experienced between the road and the stunt man

coefficient of friction= μ=\frac{F_{r} }{N}

μ=0.870

N= Normal force =m × g

m= 109kg

g= acceleration due to gravity =9.8m/s²

F_{r}= μ × N

F_{r}= μ × m × g

F_{r}= 0.870 × 109 × 9.8

F_{r}=929.33N

The tension in the cable is 929.33N

A book is falling from the top shelf of a bookcase. Which statement correctly describes the change in the energy of the book? a.
valentina_108 [34]

Answer:

Correct answer letter b.

Explanation:

When the book is on the top shelf of the bookcase, it just only gravitational potential energy, due to the gravitational field and the kinetic energy at this point is zero because the book is at rest.

Now, when the book starts falling, all the potential energy will transform into the kinetic energy. It happens, thanks to the conservation of the energy,that says energy can neither be created nor destroyed, energy can only be transferred or changed from one form to another.

Let's recall that the gravitational potential energy depends on the object's position, so when the book falls, the magnitude of the position decreases and the speed of this object increases.

Therefore, the potential energy of the book decreases as kinetic energy increases.

Correct answer letter b.

I hope it helps you!

If i punch my self and it will hurt am i weak or strong
Natasha2012 [34]

Answer:

You're strong.

Explanation:

I've been thinking of this for quite a while, and I realized that your body has a certain limit to how much pain it can take. So, punching yourself extremely hard will cause pain, because that's your body's reaction to immense pressure being put on it. But, the fact that you punched yourself so hard that it hurts, shows that you are capable of applying so much pressure; therefore, you are strong.

the moderate temperatures of islands throughout the world has much to do with water's vast supply of internal energy. high evapo

High specific heat of the water. Option (c)

What is Specific heat?

The amount of heat required to increase the temperature of one gram of a substance by one degree Celsius is referred to as the substance's specific heat. Typically, calories or joules are used per gram and degree Celsius when referring to the units of specific heat.

The moderate temperature of islands has much to do with the water's high specific heat. The typical off-water is more significant than this clear land or soil. Due to this fact, water absorbs and releases eat more slowly. In comparison to the land.

Hence, the water has high specific heat.

To learn more about specific heat the link is given below:

Which is an example of a trace fossil?
hodyreva [135]

Answer: The correct answer is A). Animal burrow because burrow fossils represent the preserved byproducts of behavior rather than physical remains, they are considered a kind of trace fossil. One common kind of burrow fossil is known as Skolithos, and the similar Trypanites, Ophiomorpha and Diplocraterion.
