Answer:

43.83 N

Explanation:

Given that,

The mass of an object, m = 34.4 kg

The coefficients of static and kinetic frictions for plastic on wood are 0.53 and 0.40, respectively.

The force of static friction,

F_s=\mu_smg\\\\F_s=0.53\times 34.4\times 9.8\\\\F_s=178.67\ N

The force of kinetic friction,

F_k=\mu_kmg\\\\F_k=0.40\times 34.4\times 9.8\\\\F_k=134.84\ N

Net force acting on the object is :

F = 178.67-134.84

= 43.83  N

Hence, this is the required solution.

A student examines a 20-meter long rectangular stream channel and takes the following measurements: width of stream = 4 meters,
Scrat [10]

Answer:

The discharge of the stream at this location is 40 cubic meters per second.

Explanation:

The discharge is the volume flow rate of the water in the stream. For this purpose we can use the following formula:

Discharge = Volume Flow Rate = (Cross-Sectional Area)(Velocity of Stream)

Volume Flow Rate = (Width of Stream)(Depth of Stream)(Velocity of Stream)

Volume Flow Rate = (4 meters)(2 meters)(5 meters per second)

<u>Volume Flow Rate = 40 cubic meters per second</u>

Therefore, the discharge of the stream at this location is found to be <u>40 cubic meters per second</u>

This result shows that 40 cubic meters volume of water passes or discharges through this point in a time of one second. Hence, this is called the volume flow rate or the discharge of the stream.

Which observation would be evidence that heat was transferred by radiation
Masteriza [31]
Radiation is a type of heat transfer wherein there is no need for medium or media through which the heat will flow. Consequently, the radiation waves are able to travel through vacuum. The best observation as evidence to conclude that heat is indeed transferred by radiation is the increase of temperature of the receiving body.
