The acceleration of the crate after it begins to move is 0.5 m/s²

We'll begin by calculating the the frictional force

Mass (m) = 50 Kg

Coefficient of kinetic friction (μ) = 0.15

Acceleration due to gravity (g) = 10 m/s²

Normal reaction (N) = mg = 50 × 10 = 500 N

<h3>Frictional force (Fբ) =?</h3>

Fբ = μN

Fբ = 0.15 × 500

<h3>Fբ = 75 N</h3>

  • Next, we shall determine the net force acting on the crate

Frictional force (Fբ) = 75 N

Force (F) = 100 N

<h3>Net force (Fₙ) =?</h3>

Fₙ = F – Fբ

Fₙ = 100 – 75

<h3>Fₙ = 25 N</h3>

  • Finally, we shall determine the acceleration of the crate

Mass (m) = 50 Kg

Net force (Fₙ) = 25 N

<h3>Acceleration (a) =?</h3>

a = Fₙ / m

a = 25 / 50

<h3>a = 0.5 m/s²</h3>

Therefore, the acceleration of the crate is 0.5 m/s²

Storm water picks up pollutants off of these types of surfaces because they are not able to absorb rainfall
Igoryamba

Answer:

True.

Explanation:

Rainwater cannot be absorbed by some surfaces. This prevents these water from infiltrating and traveling through this area, taking with it the potential pollutants that it may present, such as sediment, remains of fertilizers, bacteria, animal waste, pesticides, metals, among others. This causes a process that we can call Diffuse Pollution and can cover large areas and even bodies of water.
