$\star\sf \overrightarrow{A}=4N$

$\star\sf\overrightarrow{B}=6N$

Angle=160

$\boxed{\sf R=\sqrt{A^2+B^2+2ABcos\theta}}$

$\\ \sf\longmapsto R=\sqrt{4^2+6^2+2(4)(6)cos160}$

$\\ \sf\longmapsto R=\sqrt{16+36+48(-0.93)}$

$\\ \sf\longmapsto R=\sqrt{52-44.6}$

$\\ \sf\longmapsto R=\sqrt{7.4}$

$\\ \sf\longmapsto R=2.7N$

A burglar attempts to drag a 108 kg metal safe across a polished wood floor Assume that the coefficient of static friction is 0.

V125BC [204]

Answer:

2.00 m/s²

Explanation:

Given

The Mass of the metal safe, M = 108kg

Pushing force applied by the burglar, F = 534 N

Co-efficient of kinetic friction, $\mu_k$ = 0.3

Now,

The force against the kinetic friction is given as:

$f = \mu_k N = u_k Mg$

Where,

N = Normal reaction

g= acceleration due to the gravity

Substituting the values in the above equation, we get

$f = 0.3\times108\times9.8$

$f = 317.52N$

Now, the net force on to the metal safe is

$F_{Net}= F-f$

Substituting the values in the equation we get

$F_{Net}= 534N-317.52N$

$F_{Net}= 216.48$

also,

$F_{Net}= M\times$ acceleration of the safe

Therefore, the acceleration of the metal safe will be

acceleration of the safe= $\frac{F_{Net}}{M}$

acceleration of the safe= $\frac{216.48}{108}$

acceleration of the safe= $2.00 m/s^2$

Hence, the acceleration of the metal safe will be 2.00 m/s²

What derived unit is used to measure the slope of the line in this graph?

Alexxx [7]

Answer:

g/cm³

Explanation:

From the question given above,

The y-axis is representing mass (g)

The x-axis is representing volume (cm³)

Unit of slope =?

Slope of a graph is simply defined as the change in y-axis divided by the change in x-axis. Mathematically it is expressed as:

Slope = change in y-axis (Δy)/change in x-axis (Δx)

Slope = Δy/Δx

Thus, with the above formula, we can obtain the unit used for measuring the slope as follow:

y-axis = mass (g)

x-axis = volume (cm³)

Slope =.?

Slope = Δy/Δx

Slope = mass (g) /volume (cm³)

Slope = g/cm³

Therefore, the derive unit used for measuring the slope is g/cm³

If the energy bar was his only fuel, how far could a 68 kg person walk at 5 km/h?

goldfiish [28.3K]

An energy bar contains of 20grams of carbohydrates and 1gram is equal to 17 KJ. If the energy bar was his only fuel the total energy available is equal to (17,000 x 20) = 340,000j. Estimate KJ per hour is equal to 1539KJ, it has Time equal to (340,000/1539,000) is equal to 0.2209 hour and his Distance is equal to (5,000 x .2209) = 1.1045km.
