Answer:

Coefficient of friction = 0.5

Explanation:

Given:

Mass of box = 5 kg

Force applied = 20 N

Acceleration = 2 m/s²

Find:

Coefficient of friction

Computation:

Friction force = Mass x Acceleration.

Friction force = 5 x 2

Friction force = 10 N

Coefficient of friction = Friction force / Force applied

Coefficient of friction = 10 / 20

Coefficient of friction = 0.5

What occurs when water droplets in the atmosphere become heavier than the air surrounding them can hold?

The water droplets then became precipitation, and depending on the climate/weather, it could turn into rain, snow, sleet, or even hail.

A motorcycle accelerated from 10 metre per second to 30 metre per second in 6 seconds. How far did it travel in this time ?

Ber [7]

U=10 m/s
v=30 m/s
t=6 sec

therefore, a=(v-u)/t
=(30-10)/6
=(10/3) ms^-2

now, displacement=ut+0.5*a*t^2
=60+ 0.5*(10/3)*36
=120 m
And you can solve it in another way:

v^2=u^2+2as
or, s=(v^2-u^2)/2a
=(900-100)/6.6666666.......
=120 m

Suppose you fill two rubber balloons with air, suspend both of them from the same point, and let them hang down on strings of eq

Ulleksa [173]

The charge on each the balloon is 100nC or 1.2 × 10^-7 C

Consider two balloons of diameter 0.200m each with a mass of 1.00g hanging apart with 0.0500m separation on the ends of string making angles of 10.0° with the vertical.

The charge on each balloon can be found from

$F_{e} = \frac{k_{e}q^{2} }{r^{2}} \\q = \sqrt{\frac{k_{e}q^{2} }{r^{2}}} \\\\q = \sqrt{\frac{(2\times10^{-3N}(0.25m)^{2}}{8.99\times10^{9}N\cdotm^{2}/C^{2}}\\$

$q = 1.2\times10^{-7}C$ or 100nC

An electric charge is the property of matter where it has more or fewer electrons than protons in its atoms. Electrons carry a negative charge and protons carry a positive charge. The matter is positively charged if it contains more protons than electrons and negatively charged if it contains more electrons than protons.
