Answer:

(a) 37.5 kg

(b) 4

Explanation:

Force, F = 150 N

kinetic friction coefficient = 0.15

(a) acceleration, a = 2.53 m/s^2

According to the newton's second law

Net force = mass x acceleration

F - friction force = m a

150 - 0.15 x m g = m a

150 = m (2.53 + 0.15 x 9.8)

m = 37.5 kg

(b) As the block moves with the constant speed so the applied force becomes the friction force.

F = \mu m g \\\\150 = \mu\times 37.5\\\\\mu = 4

The sun is 1.5 × 108 km from Earth. The index of refraction for water is 1.349. How much longer would it take light from the sun
tankabanditka [31]

Answer:

175s

Explanation:

time it takes sunlight to reach the earth in  vacuum

C=light speed=299792458m/s

X=1.5x10^8km=1.5x10^11m

c=X/t

T1=X/c

T1=1.5X10^11/299792458=500.34s

time it takes sunlight to reach the earth in  water:

First we calculate the speed of light in water taking into account the refractive index

Cw=299792458m/s/1.349=222233104.5m/s

T2=1.5x10^11/222233104.5m/s=675s

additional time it would take for the light to reach the earth

ΔT=T2-T1=675-500=175s

What is the difference between mass and weight? : )
Roman55 [17]

Answer:

Mass is how much space the object takes up and how much it has inside, and weight is how heavy the object is.

Answer:

scalar is having only magnitude, not direction.

Vector is a quantity having direction as well as magnitude, especially as determining the position of one point in space relative to another.

you find the differences of both of them i actually kinda gave it to you.
