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°

A swimming pool, 10.0 m by 4.0 m, is filled with water to a depth of 3.0 m at a temperature of 20.2°c. if the energy needed to r
Tomtit [17]

You need to find the mass of water in the pool.
Find the volume (10 x 4 x 3) = 120 m3

Water has a density of 1000g/m3,so 120 m3 = 120 x 1000 = 120 000 kg

[delta]H = 4.187 x 120 000 x 3.4 (and the units will be kJ)

You then use the heat of combustion knowing that each mole of methane releases 891 kJ of heat so if you divide 891 into the previous answer, you will get the number of moles of CH4

Which statement is false?
Mkey [24]

Answer:

Once you reach adulthood, you will not experience peer pressure.

Explanation:

We tend to believe that self-control comes from within, but many of our attitudes depend as much on friends and family as on ourselves. That's because at any stage of our life (even the adult stage) our friends and our family have the power to influence us, sometimes that influence is good and sometimes bad, it's up to us to reason about them.

The people around us have the power to make us fat, consume more alcohol, worry less about the environment and expose ourselves to the sun without proper protection, among many other things.

It is not simply about peer pressure, where you deliberately act in a certain way to suit the group. It is, in fact, largely an unconscious attitude. Without your awareness, your brain is constantly picking up cues from people around you to dictate your behavior. And the consequences can be serious.

Air bags are designed to deploy in 10 ms. Given that the air bags expand 20 cm as they deploy, estimate the acceleration of the
joja [24]

As it is given that the air bag deploy in time

t = 10 ms = 0.010 s

total distance moved by the front face of the bag

d = 20 cm = 0.20 m

Now we will use kinematics to find the acceleration

d = v_i*t + \frac{1}{2}at^2

0.20 = 0 + \frac{1}{2}a*0.010^2

0.20 = 5 * 10^{-5}* a

a = 4000 m/s^2

now as we know that

g = 10 m/s^2

so we have

a = 400g

so the acceleration is 400g for the front surface of balloon
