Answer:

400 N

Explanation:

By the law of friction,

$F=\mu R$

$F$ is the maximum frictional force, $\mu$ is the coefficient of friction and $R$ is the reaction on the refrigerator. On a horizontal surface, the reaction is equal to the weight of the refrigerator.

$R=mg$

$F=\mu mg$

While not moving, the fricition on the refrigerator is static friction. So, $\mu=0.65$

$F=0.65 \times80\times9.8=509.6 \text{ N}$

This is the maximum frictional force and is more than the applied horizontal force of 400 N. Frictional force cannot be more than the applied force, else it would actually pull the refrigerator backwards (a strange thing, if it were to happen). It is equal to the extent of the applied force because the applied force is not enough to overcome the maximum.

Hence the frictional force is 400 N.

PS: Note that we do not use the coefficient of kinetic friction because applied force could not overcome the static friction.

allsm [11]

Answer:

41.2°

Explanation:

Total internal reflection is the reflection of the incident ray at the interface between two media in which one of the media has a lower refractive index than the other. It occurs when the angle of incidence in the denser medium exceeds the critical angle.

The critical angle is the angle of incidence in the denser medium when the angle of incidence in the less dense medium is 90°.

Since

n= 1/sin C

C= sin^-(1/n)

C= sin^-(1/1.33)

C= 48.8°

Hence angle of incidence= 90-48.8 = 41.2°
