You can conclude that the force of static friction acting on the boxcar is equal to 200N while you're pushing on it.

what does it mean if the coefficient of friction is greater? for example,a coefficient of friction of 0.1 compared to 0.7
Sergeu [11.5K]
Well, 0.1 is actually less than 0.7, but I understand what you're asking.

The coefficient of friction describes the relationship between two surfaces
that are sliding by each other.  The higher the coefficient of friction is, the
'rougher' the meeting is, and the harder it is for one to slide over the other. 
A skate blade against ice has a very low coefficient of friction.  Sandpaper
against blue jeans has a high coefficient of friction.

A higher coefficient of friction means that when one thing is sliding over
the other one, friction robs more energy from the motion.  It's harder to
push one thing over the other one, and when you let go, the moving one
slows down and stops sooner.

Air resistance is actually an example of friction.  It prevents falling things
from falling as fast as they would if there were no air. The coefficient of
friction when something moves through air is pretty low.  If the same
object were trying to move through molasses or honey, the coefficient
of friction would be greater.

Friction robs energy, and turns it into heat.  So, especially in machinery with
moving parts, we want to make the coefficient of friction between the moving parts
as small as possible.  That's what the OIL in a car's engine is for.

Heat is added to an open pan of water at 100.0°c, vaporizing the water. the expanding steam that results does 43.0 kj of work, a
vampirchik [111]
Heat = change in internal energy + Work done The internal energy of a system = heat added and mechanical work done by the system, i.e. U = Q + W rearranging the formula above, will give us: Q = deltaU + W 
Q = U - W = 604 kJ - 43.0 kJ = 561,000 J would be the answer.

Use the passage to answer the question.
Studentka2010 [4]

This is not something that waves do because they need a medium to travel through, while particles do not.

<h3>How light travels in space?</h3>

A light travels without any medium while on the other hand, a medium is required for sound waves to move from oe place to another. Sound is a mechanical wave that cannot travel through a vacuum.

So we can conclude that electromagnetic waves like light do not require medium for its propagation.
