∑F = ma = (90 kg)(1.2 m/s²) = 108 N = 100 N (1 significant digit)
Hello! I can help you with this!
4. For this problem, we have to write and solve a proportion. We would set this proportion up as 12/15 = 8/x. This is because we're looking for the length of the shadow and we know the height of the items, so we line them up horizontally and x goes with 8, because we're looking for the shadow length. Let's cross multiply the values. 15 * 8 = 120. 12 * x = 12. You get 120 = 12x. Now, we must divide each side by 12 to isolate the "x". 120/12 is 10. x = 10. There. The cardboard box casts a shadow that is 10 ft long.
5. For this question, you do the same thing. This time, you're finding the height of the tower, so you would do 1.2/0.6 = x/7. Cross multiply the values in order to get 8.4 = 0.6x. Now, divide each side by 0.6x to isolate the "x". 8.4/0.6 is 14. x = 14. There. The tower is 14 m tall.

Answer:
A. 243 N
Explanation:
Friction is the force that opposes the relative motion between systems that are in contact.
This friction force that opposes the motion of the oak chest across the oak surface will be equal and opposite to that exerted by the woman.
First find the normal force which is the force that would point directly upwards to support weight of the block.
Normal force, N= mg where m is the mass of the chest and g is the acceleration due to gravity.
Given m=40 kg and g=9.80 m/s²
N force=40×9.80 =392N
Then find the force of friction which is given by the formula;
<em>F=μN where μ is friction coefficient for the oak chest and N is the normal force on the chest</em>
Given <em>μ</em>=0.620 and N force = 392 N then it will be;
F=0.620× 392 =243.04 N
Answer : 243 N
Answer:
<h2>12 m/s²</h2>
Explanation:
The acceleration of an object given it's mass and the force acting on it can be found by using the formula
f is the force
m is the mass
From the question
f = 6000 N
m = 500 kg
We have
We have the final answer as
<h3>12 m/s²</h3>
Hope this helps you
