If you pull a resistant puppy with its leash in a horizontal direction, it takes 80 N to get it going. You can then keep it movi

ng at constant speed across the floor with a constant, horizontal force of 70 N. The puppy has a weight of 110 N. What is the coefficient of static friction between the puppy and the floor

Answer:

The coefficient of static friction between the puppy and the floor is 0.7273.

Explanation:

The horizontal force applied to move the puppy from a steady state has to be greater than the force of static friction, after it is moving the force needs to be equal to be greater than the force of dynamic friction in order to maintain its movement. The force of static friction is given by:

F_s = \mu_s*N

Where F_s is the static friction force, \mu_s is the coefficient of static friction and N is the normal force. Since there's no angle on the flor the normal force is equal to the weight of the puppy, therefore, N = 110\text{ N}, to make the puppy moving we need to use a force of 80 N, therefore, F_s = 80 \text{ N}, so we can solve for the coefficient as shown below:

80 = \mu_s*110\\\mu_s = \frac{80}{110} = 0.7273\\

The coefficient of static friction between the puppy and the floor is 0.7273.

False. Not all contraceptives prevent STIs.

Contraceptives are items used or taken to prevent conception. These are birth control pill, patch, ring, IUD, birth control shots, and condoms. Among these contraceptives, condoms are the only type of birth control that prevents STIs or Sexually Transmitted Infections.

A typical jet airliner has a cruise airspeed of 900 km/h , which is its speed relative to the air through which it is flying. If
Luba_88 [7]

Explanation:

It is given that,

Speed of the jet airplane with respect to air, v_{PA} = 900\ km/h          

If the wind at the airliner’s cruise altitude is blowing at 100 km/h from west to east, v_{AG}= 100\ km/h

(A) Let v_{PG} is the speed of the airliner relative to the ground if the airplane is flying from west to east,

v_{PG}=900-100=800\ km/h

(B) Let v'_{PG} is the speed of the airliner relative to the ground if the airplane is flying from east to west,

v'_{PG}=900+100=1000\ km/h

Hence, this is the required solution.

The Orion nebula is one of the brightest diffuse nebulae in the sky (look for it in the winter, just below the three bright star
Oxana [17]

Answer:

T=183.21K

Explanation:

We have to take into account that the system is a ideal gas. Hence, we have the expression

PV=nRT

where P is the pressure, V is the volume, n is the number of moles, T is the temperature and R is the ideal gas constant.

Thus, it is necessary to calculate n and V

V is the volume of a sphere

V=\frac{4}{3}\pi r^3=\frac{4}{3}\pi (5.9*10^{15}m)^3=8.602*10^{47}m^3

V=8.86*10^{50}L

and for n

n=\frac{(4000M_s)/(2*mH)}{6.022*10^{23}mol^{-1}}=3.95*10^{36}mol

Hence, we have (1 Pa = 9.85*10^{-9}atm)

T=\frac{PV}{nR}=\frac{(6.8*10^{-9}*9.85*10^{-6}atm)(8.86*10^{50}L)}{(0.0820\frac{atm*L}{mol*K})(3.95*10^{36}mol)}\\\\T=183.21K

hope this helps!!
