A 500-kg crate sits on a 10-degree ramp. If friction between the ramp and the crate is 800 N, what is the acceleration of the crate?

By Newton's second law, the net force acting on the crate parallel to the surface is

∑ F = mg sin(10°) - 800 N = ma

where m = 500 kg is the mass of the crate and a is the acceleration.

Solve for a :

a = ((500 kg) (9.80 m/s^2) sin(10°) - 800 N) / (500 kg)

a ≈ 0.102 m/s^2

we can see how the government has failed them.

answer: 802.3 kilo joules of energy represents 191.75 kilo calorie of energy.

explanation:

energy released during combustion of one mole methane = 802.3 kilo joules

if 1 kilo joule = 0.239006   kilo calorie

then ,802.3 kilo joule will be = 802.30.239006 kilo calorie

802.3 kilo joule = 191.75 kilo calorie

hence, the energy in kilo calorie is 191.75 kilo calorie.
