The force required to maintain an object at a constant speed while on frictionless ice is

3 0

If an object is on a frictionless surface, to keep it at a constant velocity you can’t apply any force because otherwise, the object will accelerate, and the velocity will change.

What are the variables in Gay-Lussac's law?

velikii [3]

Pressure and temperature are the variables in Gay-Lussac's law.

The law states that a pressure of a gas is directly proportional to the gas' temperature if the mass and volume are fixed. This means that there are only two variables, as the other two values are fixed: only pressure and temperature can change according to this law.

Firlakuza [10]

Answer:

The pulling force that should the man apply to create an upward acceleration is 141.6 N

Explanation:

Newton's second law can be stated as follows: The acceleration of an object as produced by a net force is directly proportional to the magnitude of the net force, in the same direction as the net force, and inversely proportional to the mass of the object.

Newton's Second law can be expressed in the following formula:

F=m*a

Where:

F=Force

m=mass

a= acelleration

Then, we replace given values in the formula to know the force:

$F=118Kg*1.20\frac{m}{s^{2} } \\F=141.6 N$
