The friction force experienced by the box in Newtons is 724N

The frictional force is the force that opposes the moving force acting on a body on a horizontal plane.

  • For a static body, the acceleration will be zero,

According to Newton's second law of motion:

  • ∑Fx = ma
  • +Fm - Ff = ma

Given the following paramters

  • Moving force Fm = 724N
  • acceleration a = 0m/s²
  • mass m = 119 kg

Substitute the given parameters into the formula to get the frictional force:

724 - Ff = 119(0)

724 - Ff = 0

Ff = 0 + 724

Ff = 724N

Hence the friction force experienced by the box in Newtons is 724N

How many neutrons does element X have if its atomic number is 48 and its mass number is 167?
Llana [10]
If its atomic number is 48, then it has 48 protons in the nucleus
of each atom.  Any more mass than that is supplied by the neutrons
that are mixed in there with the protons.

If the mass is 167, and 48 of those are protons, then there are

             (167 - 48)  =  119 neutrons

in each nucleus.

A daring stunt woman sitting on a tree limb wishes to drop vertically onto a horse gallop ing under the tree. The constant speed
Shkiper50 [21]

Answer:

0.67 seconds

8.576 m

Explanation:

t = Time taken

u = Initial velocity

v = Final velocity

s = Displacement

a = Acceleration due to gravity = 9.8 m/s²

s=ut+\frac{1}{2}at^2\\\Rightarrow 2.23=0t+\frac{1}{2}\times 9.8\times t^2\\\Rightarrow t=\sqrt{\frac{2.23\times 2}{9.8}}\\\Rightarrow t=0.67\ s

Time taken by the stunt woman to drop to the saddle is 0.67 seconds which is the time she will stay in the air.

Speed of the horse = 12.8 m/s

Distance = Speed × Time

⇒Distance = 12.8×0.67

⇒Distance = 8.576 m

Hence, the distance between the horse and stunt woman should be 8.576 m when she jumps.

A satellite that goes around the earth once every 24 hours iscalled a geosynchronous satellite. If a geosynchronoussatellite is
alexgriva [62]

Answer:

R=4.22*10⁴km

Explanation:

The tangential speed v of the geosynchronous satellite is given by:

v=\frac{2\pi R}{T}

Because 2\pi R is the circumference length (the distance traveled) and T is the period (the interval of time).

Now, we know that the centripetal force of an object undergoing uniform circular motion is given by:

F_c=\frac{mv^{2} }{R}

If we substitute the expression for v in this formula, we get:

F_c=\frac{m(\frac{2\pi R}{T})^{2}}{R}=\frac{4m\pi ^{2}R}{T^{2}}

Since the centripetal force is the gravitational force F_g between the satellite and the Earth, we know that:

F_g=\frac{GMm}{R^{2}}\\\\\implies \frac{GMm}{R^{2}}=\frac{4m\pi ^{2}R}{T^{2}}\\\\R^{3}=\frac{GMT^{2}}{4\pi^{2}} \\\\R=\sqrt[3]{\frac{GMT^{2}}{4\pi^{2}} }

Where G is the gravitational constant (G=6.67*10^{-11} Nm^{2}/kg^{2}) and M is the mass of the Earth (M=5.97*10^{24}kg). Since the period of the geosynchronous satellite is 24 hours (equivalent to 86400 seconds), we finally can compute the radius of the satellite:

R=\sqrt[3]{\frac{(6.67*10^{-11}Nm^{2}/kg^{2})(5.97*10^{24}kg)(86400s)^{2}}{4\pi^{2}}}\\\\R=4.22*10^{7}m=4.22*10^{4}km

This means that the radius of the orbit of a geosynchronous satellite that circles the earth is 4.22*10⁴km.
