You are working in a shoe test laboratory measuring the coefficients of friction for running shoes on a variety of surfaces. The

shoes are pushed against the surface with a downward force of 400 N, and a sample of the surface material is then pulled out from under the shoe by a machine. The machine pulls with a force of 300 N before the material begins to slide. When the material is sliding, the machine only has to pull with a force of 200 N to keep the material moving. What is the coefficient of static friction between the shoe and the material

Answer:

0.75

Explanation:

Since the static frictional force is the maximum force applied just before sliding, our frictional force, F is 300 N.

Since F = μN where μ = coefficient of static friction and N = normal force = 400 N (which is the downward force applied against the surface).

So, μ = F/N

= 300 N/400 N

= 3/4

= 0.75

So, the  coefficient of static friction μ = 0.75

Mashcka [7]

Answer:

Hipparchus was an ancient Greek who classified stars based on the brightness in 129 B.C. He grouped the brightest stars and ranked them 1 (first magnitude) and dimmest stars as 6 (sixth magnitude). Thus, the smaller numbers indicated brighter stars. Now, the scale extends in negative axis as well. More the negative number, brighter is the star. For example, Sun has magnitude -26.74.

This the apparent magnitude which means the classification is based on the brightness of the star as it appears from the Earth.

Student 1 lifts a box with a force of 500 N and sets it on a tabletop 1.2 m high. Student 2 pushes an identical box up a 5 m ram
Troyanec [42]

The student who did the most work is student 2 with 2500 Joules.

<u>Given the following data:</u>

  • Force 1 = 500 Newton
  • Distance 1 = 1.2 meter
  • Force 2 = 500 Newton
  • Distance 2 = 5 meter

To determine which of the students did the most work:

Mathematically, the work done by an object is given by the formula;

Work\;done = Force \times distance

<u>For </u><u>student 1</u><u>:</u>

Work\;done = 500 \times 1.2

Work done = 600 Joules

<u>For </u><u>student 2</u><u>:</u>

Work\;done = 500 \times 5

Work done = 2500 Joules.

Therefore, the student who did the most work is student 2 with 2500 Joules.
