A dockworker loading crates on a ship finds that a 26-kg crate, initially at rest on a horizontal surface, requires a 72-N horiz

ontal force to set it in motion. However, after the crate is in motion, a horizontal force of 54 N is required to keep it moving with a constant speed. Find the coefficients of static and kinetic friction between crate and floor. g

Answer:

Explanation:

A 26-kg crate, initially at rest on a horizontal surface, requires a 72-N horizontal force to set it in motion.

Maximum Frictional force on stationary object  F = μs R  where μs is coefficient of static friction and R is reaction of ground which is equal to weight for object placed on horizontal surface .

F = μs  x mg

Given F = 72 , m = 26

72 = 26 x 9.8 x  μs

μs = .28

Kinetic friction : ---

Frictional force on moving  object  F = μk R  where μk is coefficient of kinetic friction and R is reaction of ground which is equal to weight for object placed on horizontal surface .

F = μk  x mg

Given F = 72 , m = 26

54 = 26 x 9.8 x  μk

μk = .21

The wavelength of 10^15-Hz light is:
Vanyuwa [196]

Answer:

D.300nm

Explanation:

Wavelength = Speed of light / Frequency of light.....

where the speed of light is...(3 × 10^8)

Wavelength = (3 × 10^8)/(1 × 10^15)

Wavelength = 3 × 10^-7

;Wavelength = 300 × 10^-9

Hence its....300 nm

What is the acceleration due to gravity at an altitude of 116?
Schach [20]
Gravitational acceleration (Ga) is  inversely proportional to  k / Distance^2

so Ga * Distance^2 = K

On the surface of Earth acceleration due to gravity is about 9.8m/s^2 with an average distance to the earths core of about 6371 km (Wolfram alpha).

So k = 9.8 * 6371^2
I'm presuming that your distance of 116 is km

As 
Ga = k / distance^2 

Ga = ((9.8 * 6371^2) / (6371 + 116)^2 ) = 397778481.8 / 42081169

= 9.45 m/s^2 to 2sf

irinina [24]

Answer:

Swimming

Explanation:

An increase of flexibility for swimming helps elongate the swimmer to propel faster and glide through the water easier. If the swimmer is inflexible, they won't be able to stretch as far as they should. But, if they were flexible, it'd be easier and much simpler.
