A box weighing 18 N requires a force of 6.0 N to drag it at a constant rate. What is the coefficient of sliding friction?

Answers

Answer 1
Answer: Use f = uN to find the coefficient of friction. We know friction (6.0 N) and the normal forces (18 N), so plug them in to the equation which gives us 6 = u18. Solving for u: u = 0.33
Answer 2
Answer:

The Correct Answer Is 0.33.

Which of the following statements are true as a block of ice melts?The temperature of the ice/water system increases.
Heat energy enters the ice/water system.
The temperature of the ice/water system remains constant.Heat energy leaves the ice/water system.
The temperature of the ice/water system decreases.

Answers


It takes heat energy to turn ice at 0°C into water at 0°C.

-- You start off with a block of ice.

-- Some heat energy hits the ice, the ice absorbs it, a little bit
of ice melts, and a puddle forms around it.  Now you have an
ice/water system, all at 0°C.

-- If no more heat comes in from somewhere, then no more
ice can melt.

-- When some more heat energy comes in, some more ice
can melt, and become liquid at 0°C.

-- As heat comes in, more and more ice melts.  The temperature
of the whole system remains constant.  Any heat that comes in
is used to change the state of some ice from solid to liquid, with
no temperature change.

-- Finally, when all of the solid is gone, any more heat energy
begins to raise the temperature of the water.

A electromagnet is a strong magnet that can be turned on and off. Please select the best answer from the choices provideda. True
b. False

Answers

The statement ‘An electromagnet is a strong magnet that can be turned on and off’ is true. The answer is letter A. An electromagnet can be made through wrapping the wire that has an electric current around a nail. It can be increase through the number of loops wrapped around the metal.

An apple is placed 20.0 cm in front of a diverging lens of focal length 10.0 cm. Find the image distance and the magnification of the apple.

Answers

Answer:

Image distance of apple=-6.7 cm

Magnification of apple=0.33

Explanation:

We are given that an apple is placed 20.cm in front of a diverging lens.

Object distance=u=-20 cm

Focal length=f=-10 cm

Because focal length of diverging lens is negative.

We have to find the image distance and magnification of the apple.

Lens formula

(1)/(f)=(1)/(v)-(1)/(u)

Substitute the values then we get

-(1)/(10)=(1)/(v)+(1)/(20)

(1)/(v)=-(1)/(10)-(1)/(20)

(1)/(v)=(-2-1)/(20)=-(3)/(20)

v=-(20)/(3)=-6.7 cm

Image distance of apple=-6.7 cm

Magnification=m=(v)/(u)=(-(20)/(3))/(-20)

Magnification of apple=(1)/(3)=0.33

Hence, the magnification of apple=0.33
