Answer:

F =  73.7 N = 74 N (rounding off)

Explanation:

In order to get the box to start moving, Mr. Ames must push it with a force equal to the frictional force acting on it. Therefore, this force can be calculated through the following formula:

F = frictional force = \mu R

where,

μ = coefficient of friction = 0.55

R = Normal Force on Box = Weight of Box with books = 134 N

Therefore,

F = (0.55)(134\ N)\\

<u>F =  73.7 N = 74 N (rounding off)</u>

You jump off a truck and accelerate toward the surface of the Earth. Does the Earth accelerate toward you?
Triss [41]

When we jump from the truck and accelerate towards the earth surface, the earth also accelerates towards us but it's acceleration is very negligible.

To find the answer, we need to know about the acceleration of earth due to the gravitational attraction.

<h3>What's the gravitational force between the earth and a person?</h3>
  • Gravitational attraction force is GMm/r² between the earth and a person.
  • M= mass of the earth

m= mass of the person

r= separation between them.

<h3>What's the acceleration of the earth towards the person when he jumps from a truck?</h3>
  • According to Newton's second law, Force = M×acceleration
  • Acceleration= Force / M
  • Here, Force = GMm/r²,

so acceleration of earth= Gm/r²

  • As this acceleration is very small, so we can't notice it.

Thus, we can conclude that the earth also accelerates towards us.

(6) A 75 kg human total footprint area is 0.05 m2 when wearing winter boots. Suppose that you want to walk on snow that can at m
fredd [130]

Answer:

0.25m²

Explanation:

We know that the summation of forces in the vertical direction is zero

So

PA-mg=0

A=mg/p

So

Substituting

A= 75* 9.8/3*10^-3

=0.25m² which is the total shoe area

How do gamma rays use electromagnetic waves to function....PLS HELP
BabaBlast [244]

Answer:

Gamma-rays have the smallest wavelengths and the most energy of any other wave in the electromagnetic spectrum. These waves are generated by radioactive atoms and in nuclear explosions.

Explanation:

Gamma-rays can kill living cells, a fact which medicine uses to its advantage, using gamma-rays to kill cancerous cells.

Hope this helps!
