Answer:

<h2>Frictional force</h2>

Explanation:

For the block placed on the table, there are several force acting on the body along the horizontal and vertical axis. All this forces tends to keep the body in a state of equilibrium.The forces acting along the horizontal are the moving force (Fm) and the frictional force (Ff).

Frictional force are forces that acts opposite to the force that causes the body to move (moving force).

If Lien uses a spring scale to pull a block toward the right across the lab table and the scale reads 8 N, this means that the force that causes the body to move is the 8N force (moving force).

Taking the sum of force along the horizontal;

\sum fx = ma_x

Since the body is static, max = 0

\sum fx = 0\\fm+(-Ff)= 0

Note that the frictional force acts is the force of opposition acting in the negative x direction.

fm = 0+Ff\\fm = Ff

Since Fm = 8N, Ff will also be equal to 8N.

Based on the above proof, Lien can also conclude that 8 N is a frictional force

Why is Pluto now called a dwarf planet
zvonat [6]
Before Pluto was discovered, it was predicted. Astronomers had observed that massive objects can affect the orbits of its neighbors, and, after seeing deviations in the orbits of Uranus and Neptune, assumed something substantial existed beyond their orbits.
When Pluto was spotted, it was thought to be the predicted object and was identified as a ninth planet.
A few decades later, astronomers started discovering more and more objects around other stars and didn’t know whether to call them planets or not. There appeared to be a need to define what a planet means, and that led to what some people consider Pluto’s demotion to a dwarf planet.
The International Astronomical Union decided that full-sized planets must orbit the sun, have a round shape, and have cleared their orbits of other objects. Pluto fulfills the first two criteria, but not the third.
It still goes around the sun, it’s round enough, it’s got moons, and behaves like a planet, but the idea is that Pluto did not form the same way as the rest of the planets. Pluto’s orbit is both eccentric and inclined more than the rest of the planets by about 17 degrees. That’s suggests something is different about this object.
This debate about whether to call it a planet or not is silly, because it doesn’t matter to Pluto what you call it. It is an interesting object, goes around the sun, and shows geology and an atmosphere.
There’s a tendency to define objects based on what they are now, but nothing is constant in the universe. There are some issues with the nomenclature, and a definition today may not apply to the same object tomorrow.

EleoNora [17]
You must times the area by the volume, look at it as if the area is just one of 23 layers that makes up the volume.
1960x23=45080
so no it cannot be carried as it is 5080cm^3 over the limit

There are many theories as to why ice ages occur. The currently accepted theory is that ice ages are caused by _____.
Harman [31]

Earlier in the text this question is provided for, you should be able to find the passage, "The currently accepted theory attributes ice ages to small changes in Earth's orbit, known as Milankovitch cycles. These cycles describe how Earth's orbit gradually changes shape from more circular to more elliptical and back again. This happens roughly every 100,000 years. The orbital changes take Earth nearer and further from the Sun, which would affect the amount of energy reaching Earth."

Answer: Small changes in Earth's orbit
