A boy is pulling his two sisters on a sled.

Physics
1 answer:

4 0

Answer:

Explanation:

The oly way we can figure this out is if the boy is pulling the sled at a constant velocity. If not, we need a value for acceleration, and you don't have that here. If the boy is pulling the sled at a constant velocity, then the value for acceleration is 0, making this a really simple problem. I'm going with that, since there is no way to answer you otherwise. If velocity is not constant, please either repost the question or put it in the notes section under the question as it stands. If acceleration is 0, then

F - f = ma becomes

F - f = m(0) which is

F - f = 0 and

F = f which says that the applied force is the same as the frictional force. We need then to find the frictional force, which has an equation of

f = μF_n where normal force is the same as the weight of the 2 girls. We will find that, then:

Each girl's mass is different so the normal force/weight equation is

w = (30.0)(9.8) + (40.0)(9.8) to get

w = 290 + 390 and

w = 680. Plug that into the frictional force equation:

f = (.120)(680) so

f = 82N

What is friction and how does it affect objects in motion?
lesantik [10]
Friction is a force. A resistance force that tries to slow down and stop objects in motion. The difference between friction and air resistance is that friction acts on surfaces. For example, if I were skateboarding on a rough surface, more friction would occur so I would travel slower. If I were skareboarding on ice, I would go faster because there is much less friction to slow me down. Hope that helps:)

According to a general theory of crime, individuals who engage in crime are also likely to engage in other risky behaviors, for
babymother [125]

Answer:

construct validity

Explanation:

According to my research on studies conducted by various psychologists, I can say that based on the information provided within the question it seems that the researcher is using construct validity. This is the act of measuring or validating what the extent to which a claim is true. In this situation since the claim states that people involved in crimes tend to do speed and drugs, then the researcher compares the criminals responses to those areas to test the validity of the claim.

I hope this answered your question. If you have any more questions feel free to ask away at Brainly.
