You apply a 56.3N force to a 4.2Kg cart towards the right. The cart accelerates towards the right at a rate of 0.8m/s2. What is the magnitude, in Newtons, of the net frictional force (the sum of the only other forces, besides the 56.3N one you apply)? Please enter only a numerical answer, no units necessary.

The star nearest to our sun is proxima centauri, at a distance of 4.3 light-years from the sun. how far away, in km, is proxima centauri from the sun?

Researchers conducted an experiment to identify the effects of three different hand sanitizers on the growth of bacteria. the researchers grew one type of bacteria in twenty-four identical covered petri dishes. then, they opened eighteen petri dishes and applied the three hand sanitizers to six petri dishes each. they left the remaining six petri dishes closed as a control group. when the researchers measured the growth of bacteria two days later, the six dishes that had no hand sanitizer showed the least amount of bacterial growth. the researchers concluded that not using any hand sanitizer would lead to the least bacterial growth. which statement best explains why the researchers’ conclusion was not justified? the experiment tested too many variables. the control group was not treated the same as the experimental group. the sample size of twenty-four petri dishes is not large enough. the single type of bacteria is not adequate to make any conclusions.

Why do metals "give up" their valence electrons?
