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

ryzh [129]
F = m . g  = 76.5 x 9..8 = 749.7
Net Force = 3225 - 749.7 = 2475.3

F = m.a
2475.3 = 76.5 a

a  = 32.35



V = at + v1
V = at + 0
V = 32.35 x 0.15
V = 4.8525

What is one way that continental rifts are similar to mid-ocean ridges and what is one that they are different?
adell [148]

Explanation:

Continental rifts and mid-ocean ridges are both features of a divergent plate margin.

In both cases plates are moving away from one another. Therefore they are creating new land masses.

  • A continental drift like the east African rift valley is where a continent begins to pull apart or diverges.
  • A mid-ocean ridge is divergent margin in the ocean.

They are different in that, continental rift occurs within the continental plate that are on land.

But:

 Mid-ocean ridges are in the oceanic crust in the ocean . They form the largest physiographic structure on the earth surface called the mid-ocean ridge.

What is the mass of an atom that has 2 protons, 3 neutrons, and 2 electrons
marusya05 [52]
You can find the mass of an atom by adding the number of protons and neutrons. In this case the atom has 2 protons and 3 neutrons so the mass is 5.

IrinaK [193]
A) average acceleration = final velocity - initial velocity / time

= 7700 - 0 / 11

= 700ms^-2


B) force = mass x acceleration

= (3.05 x 105) x 700

= 320.25 x 700

= 224,175N
