Anna got fed up and decided to put some of her classmates in a big box. She shoved Riley, Justin, and Paul into the box and tape

d it shut. Anna couldn’t overcome the force of friction by herself, so she asked some classmates to help push the box out the door. The force of friction of the floor on the box was 400 N. If Anna and her classmates can each shove with a force of 32 N, how many students would it take to make the box start moving out the door?

Answer:

13

Explanation:

Total force of friction between the box and the floor = 400 N

Force each student can apply = 32 N

Let the number of students required be x.

So, students required to make the box start moving

= 400 N < 32xN

= 400N/32N < x

= 12.5 < x

So, more than 12.5 students will be required. Since 12.5 students is not physically possible, so we will take the nearest whole number that is greater than 12.5, i.e, 13. So, 13 students will be required to shove the box.

In which Colorado Rockies scenario was there more erosion? Why was there more erosion in the scenario?
DENIUS [597]

Explanation:

The Erosion in the Colorado Rookies Scenario that record a ready rain were more than the other scenario in the same area with just a drizzle. The Erosion is much in the Colorado Rockies Scenario that record a steady rain because the volume of the rivers has goes up compare to that of the Scenario with just a drizzle. As a result of the increased in the amount of the rivers bank that is flowing, the river flows more faster which helps in the transportation of the sediments or Erodes.

One difference between mixtures and pure substances is that
defon

Answer:

The mixture is made up of different atoms and pure substance is made up of same type of atom.

The main difference is that mixture can be separated into its component by physical mean while pure substances can not be separated by physical process

Explanation:

Mixture:

  • The properties of the mixture are not same and contains the properties of all those component present in it.
  • it is a combination of one or more Pure substances and can be separated by simple physical methods.
  • it have varying boiling and melting point

Examples are:

  • mixture of salt and sand
  • Salt water is mixture of water and NaCl and can be separated by physical mean.
  • Alloys: its a mixture of different metal
  • Air: mixture of gases

Pure Substance:

Pure substances are those made of same type of atoms all elements and compounds are pure substances.

  • it can not be separated by simple physical mean
  • it have very constant and consistent melting and boiling point

Examples are:

  • Water : contain only water molecule
  • All elements: all elements are pure substance made of same atoms
  • All compounds: can not be separated by physical mean.
