Answer:

Calculating Coefficient of friction is 0.229.

Force is 4.5 N that keep the block moving at a constant speed.

Explanation:

We know that speed expression is as \mathrm{V}^{2}=\mathrm{V}_{\mathrm{i}}^{2}+2 . \mathrm{a} . \Delta \mathrm{s}.

Where, {V}_{i} is initial speed, V is final speed, ∆s displacement and a acceleration.

Given that,

{V}_{i} =3 m/s, V = 0 m/s, and  ∆s = 2 m

Substitute the values in the above formula,

0=3^{2}-2 \times 2 \times a

0 = 9 - 4a

4a = 9

a=2.25 \mathrm{m} / \mathrm{s}^{2}

a=2.25 \mathrm{m} / \mathrm{s}^{2} is the acceleration.

Calculating Coefficient of friction:

\mathrm{F}=\mathrm{m} \times \mathrm{a}

\mathrm{F}=\mu \times \mathrm{m} \times \mathrm{g}

Compare the above equation

\mu \times m \times g=m \times a

Cancel "m" common term in both L.H.S and R.H.S

\text { Equation becomes, } \mu \times g=a

\text { Coefficient of friction } \mu=\frac{a}{g}

\mathrm{g} \text { on earth surface }=9.8 \mathrm{m} / \mathrm{s}^{2}

\mu=\frac{2.25}{9.8}

\mu=0.229

Hence coefficient of friction is 0.229.

calculating force:

\text { We know that } \mathrm{F}=\mathrm{m} \times \mathrm{a}

\mathrm{F}=2 \times 2.25 \quad(\mathrm{m}=2 \mathrm{kg} \text { given })

F = 4.5 N

Therefore, the force would be <u>4.5 N</u> to keep the block moving at a constant speed across the floor.

How do you identify the number of valence electrons in an element using periodic table
frosja888 [35]
You may look at what group they are in
Group
1A=Group 1
2A = Group 2
3A = Group 13
4A= Group 14
5A=Group 15
6A=Group 16
7A=Group 17

The #A tells you how many valence electrons there are by the # before A. Such as Chlorine, which is in 7A, so therefore has 7 valence electrons.

How many grams of ice at 0°c will melt if 1.50 kj of heat are added? (the molar heat of fusion of water is 6.01 kj/mol.) 4.49 g
Nata [24]
The computation would be:moles = mass/ Molar Mass, but we are looking for the mass, so rearranging, will give us: mass = moles x MM 
Q = moles x Hf 
Q = (mass/MM) x Hf 
mass = (Q x MM) / Hf 
= (1.50-kJ x 18.0-g/mol) / 6.01-kJ/mol 
=4.49 g H20 is the answer

Which of the following statements is true regarding electromagnetic waves traveling through a vacuum?
kap26 [50]

Answer:

C. All waves have the same speed.

Explanation:

Wave equation is given as;

V = fλ

where;

V is the speed of the wave

f is the frequency of the wave

λ is the wavelength

The speed of the wave depends on both wavelength and frequency

The speed of the electromagnetic waves in a vacuum is 3 x 10⁸ m/s, this also the speed of light which is constant for all electromagnetic waves.

Therefore, the correct option is "C"

C. All waves have the same speed.
