So, why can a properly executed karate kick break a concrete block without fracturing bones [16]? first, bone is a very strong m

aterial. its ultimate compressive strength is approximately 40 times larger than concrete. second, contact is made with the edge of the foot. this concentrates the force into a small area of the target and reduces the likelihood of bending a bone to the point of fracture. third, the collision with the target is essentially inelastic and extends over several milliseconds, so the peak force, though large, does not exceed the strength of the bone.

18 kilogram Mass Blokus addressed a level surface if the coefficient of static friction between the Block in the surface is 0.6
Tasya [4]

Question: 18 kilogram Mass Block rest on level surface if the coefficient of static friction between the Block and the surface is 0.6 what  horizontal force is required to just move the blcok ( take gravity as 10m/s2 )

Answer:

108 N

Explanation:

From the question,

Applying

F' = mgμ................ Equation 1

Where F' = Frictional force = horizontal  force required to just move the block,  m = mass of the block, g = acceleration due to gravity, μ = coefficient of static friction.

From the question,

Given: m = 18 kg, μ = 0.6, g = 10 m/s²

Substitute these values into equation 1

F' = 18×0.6×10

F' = 108 N
