Santa doesn't want to push a 25.0 kg wooden box across a wooden floor with a uk of 0.20 at

a constant speed of 1.0 m/s. so he asks the same guy in a blue polo shirt to move the box for

him. how much force does the " guy" have to exert on the box?

49 N

Explanation:

In order to move the box at constant speed, the acceleration of the box must be zero (a=0): this means, according to Newton's second law,

F = ma

that the net force acting on the box, F, must be zero as well.

Here there are two forces acting on the box in the horizontal direction while it is moving:

- The force of push applied by the guy, F

- The frictional force,

For an object moving on a flat surface, the frictional force is given by

where

is the coefficient of friction

m is the mass of the box

g is the acceleration of gravity

So the equation of the forces becomes

And substituting:

We find the force that must be applied by the guy:

specific latent heat of fusion, lf, of a substance is defined as the amount of heat required to change a unit mass of the substance from solid to liquid state, without any change in the temperature.

explanation:

i wanna say it’s between b and d, leaning more towards b.
