Answer: The angle of inclination is nearly 30°

Explanation:

For a body on an inclined plane, the coefficient of friction between the body and the plane is equal to the ratio of the moving force applied to the body to the frictional force acting on the body.

If uK coefficient of friction;

Fm is the moving force

R is the normal reaction on the body

Mathematically uK = Fm/R

Fm = WSin(theta)

R = Wcos(theta)

uK = Wsin(theta)/Wcos(theta)

uK = tan(theta)

theta = arctan(uK)

If uK is 0.58

theta = arctan0.58

theta = 30°

The angle of the inclined will be 30°

If I could snap my fingers and move Earth to an orbital distance at 9 AU, what would happen to the strength of the Sun's gravita
Vitek1552 [10]

Answer:

    \frac{F}{F_o} = 1.2 10⁻²

force of attraction of the sun decreases by a factor of 1.2 10⁻² times

Explanation:

The force of gravity is given by the universal law of attraction

          F = G m Ms / r²

where m is the mass of the Earth, Ms the mass of the Sun and r the distance from the Earth to the Sun

for the initial orbit

          F₀ = G m Ms / R₀²

for one orbit

          R = 9R₀

         F = G \frac{m M_s}{ ((9R_o)^2}

         F = G \frac{m M_s}{81 \  R_o^2}

we substitute

         F = F₀ / 81

         \frac{F}{F_o} = 1.2 10⁻²

therefore the force of attraction of the sun decreases by a factor of 1.2 10⁻² times

Which of these objects would need the largest force to create an
Gnom [1K]

Newton's second law for an object's motion in one spatial dimension:

F = ma

F is the force, m is the mass, and a is the acceleration.

From this equation, we can tell that, compared to a less massive object, a more massive object will need a bigger force to make it accelerate at the same rate. The 30kg sofa has the most mass out of all the above listed objects, therefore it will take the biggest force to accelerate at 1m/s²

Choice D
