Answer:

68.8 N

Explanation:

From the question given above, the following data were obtained:

Mass (m) of box = 18 Kg

Coefficient of friction (μ) = 0.39

Force of friction (F) =?

Next, we shall determine the normal force of the box. This is illustrated below:

Mass (m) of object = 18 Kg

Acceleration due to gravity (g) = 9.8 m/s²

Normal force (N) =?

N = mg

N = 18 × 9.8

N = 176.4 N

Finally, we shall determine the force of friction experienced by the object. This is illustrated below:

Coefficient of friction (μ) = 0.39

Normal force (N) = 176.4 N

Force of friction (F) =?

F = μN

F = 0.39 × 176.4

F = 68.796 ≈ 68.8 N

Thus, the box experience a frictional force of 68.8 N.

KE 1/2mv^2 is a for kinetic energy (KE) in terms of mass, m, and the velocity, v, of a moving object. Which choice shows a corre
aivan3 [116]

Answer:Kinetic energy is directly proportional to the mass of the object and to the square of its velocity: K.E. = 1/2 m v2. If the mass has units of kilograms and the velocity of meters per second, the kinetic energy has units of kilograms-meters squared per second squared.

A car of mass 487 kg travels around a flat, circular race track of radius 53.3 m. The coefficient of static friction between the
aleksklad [387]

Answer:

9.96 m/s

Explanation:

mass of car, m = 487 kg

radius of track, R = 53.3 m

coefficient of static friction, μ = 0.19

acceleration due to gravity, g = 9.8 m/s^2

let v be the maximum speed so that the car can go without flying off the track.

The formula for the maximum speed is given by

v_{max}=\sqrt{\mu Rg}

v_{max}=\sqrt{0.19\times53.3\times9.8

vmax = 9.96 m/s

In a police ballistics test, a 10.0-g bullet moving at 300 m/s is fired into a 1.00-kg block at rest. The bullet goes through th
natta225 [31]

Answer:

Speed of block after the bullet emerges = 1.5 m/s

Explanation:

Here momentum is conserved.

Initial momentum = Final momentum.

Mass of bullet = 10 g = 0.01 kg

Initial Velocity of bullet = 300 m/s

Mass of block = 1 kg

Initial Velocity of block = 0 m/s

Final Velocity of bullet = 50% of initial velocity. = 150 m/s

We need to find final velocity of block. Let it be v

We have

Initial momentum = 0.01 x 300 + 1 x 0 = 3 kg m/s

Final momentum = 0.01 x 150 + 1 x v = 1.5 + v

Equating

3 = 1.5 + v

v = 1.5 m/s

Speed of block after the bullet emerges = 1.5 m/s

What action involves a chemical change?
Likurg_2 [28]
<span>BAKING A CAKE </span>

Chemical change is a process where a current substance changes or is made into a new type of substance
. Unlike the physical change, which is reversible. Chemical change stays into a its new form. Take for instance these -physical change- examples, making ice cubes. The process involves solidification or freezing where the water becomes ice or solid but when it melts back to its original or typical form with respect to temperature, it’s still water. When the paper is cut into pieces it isn’t burned or exposed to a stimuli that can trigger immediate change in its composition. It’s still the same. On the contrary, baking a cake involves these different compositions or substances –flour, egg, yeast and etc. that is baked to a cake, a newly formed unified substance of all the included ingredients.
