<h2>Answer:</h2><h3>0.24 Earth years</h3><h3 /><h2>Explanation:</h2>

However, it's proximity to the Sun means that its average orbital velocity is a speedy 47.362 kilometers a second or 29.429 miles per second – approximately 170,500 km/h; 105,945 mph. At this rate, it takes Mercury 87.969 days, or the equivalent of 0.24 Earth years, to complete a single orbit of the Sun.

Which of the following represents a possible magnitude for the force of static friction when Xavier applied 72.1 Newtons of forc

lana66690 [7]

The possible magnitude for the force of static friction on the stationary cart is 72.1 N.

The given parameters:

<em>Applied force on the cart, F = 72.1 N</em>

<em />

Based on Newton's second law of motion, the force applied to object is directly proportional to the product of mass and acceleration of the object.

F = ma

Static frictional force is the force resisting the motion of an object at rest.

$\Sigma F = 0\\\\F -F_f = 0$
