The force of static friction is a force that acts an object on a surface, when this object is pushed by another force to put it in motion. The direction of the force of friction is opposite to the direction of the force of push, and its value increases as the force of push increases, up to a maximum value given by:

$F_f = \mu W$

where

$\mu$ is the coefficient of friction

W is the weight of the object

Therefore, in order to put the object in motion, the force applied must be greater than this value.

For the pile of leaves in this problem, we have:

$\mu = 0.55$ (coefficient of friction)

$W=580 N$ (weight of the leaves)

Substituting, we find:

$F=(0.55)(580)=319 N$

Hello, I wanted an answer from a mathematician. The number 1.04 is closer to the number 1, 2, 1.25 or 1.5.

babymother [125]

Answer:

Explanation:

Of the 4 numbers given, the answer is 1 or A

If you take the absolute value of abs(1 - 1.04) you get 0.04.

(2 - 1.04) = 0.96

1.25 - 1.04 = .21

1.5 - 1.04 = 0.46

The last three are all larger than 0.04

Note: absolute value means the positive difference between 2 numbers (even though it is negative). If it is negative, absolute value makes it positive.

If 128 v is required to push 4.00 A of current though a resistor, what is the resistance

prisoha [69]

Answer:

32.0 Ω

Explanation:

Ohm's law:

V = IR

128 V = (4.00 A) R

R = 32.0 Ω

I would say the last option, since with an increase in temperature, water molecules will speed up.
