Answer:
400 N
Explanation:
By the law of friction,
is the maximum frictional force,
is the coefficient of friction and
is the reaction on the refrigerator. On a horizontal surface, the reaction is equal to the weight of the refrigerator.
While not moving, the fricition on the refrigerator is static friction. So,
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.
Answer:
The box displacement after 6 seconds is 66 meters.
Explanation:
Let suppose that velocity given in statement represents the initial velocity of the box and, likewise, the box accelerates at constant rate. Then, the displacement of the object (), in meters, can be determined by the following expression:
(1)
Where:
- Initial velocity, in meters per second.
- Time, in seconds.
- Acceleration, in meters per square second.
If we know that ,
and
, then the box displacement after 6 seconds is:
The box displacement after 6 seconds is 66 meters.
