You wish to move a heavy box on a rough floor. the coefficient of kinetic friction between the box and the floor is 0.9. what is the best way to reduce the force of friction between the box and the floor while the box is moving? a. push or pull the box with a force parallel to the floor. b. pull the box with a force directed up at an angle of 30â° from the horizontal. c. push the box with a force directed down at an angle of 30â° from the horizontal. d. the coefficient of friction does not change so the force of kinetic friction acting on the block must be constant e. both b and c result in the same force of friction.

The speed of sound in ice, water, and steam is shown. what best explains the speed of sound in different states of matter? sound travels fastest in ice because energy is easier to transfer when the molecules are close together. sound travels slowest in steam because the sound has to move around the gas molecules that are far apart. sound travels fastest in ice because the temperature of solids is always greater, so the heat transfers the sound energy. sound travels slowest in steam because the pressure is so great the sound cannot travel though the steam particles.

The combining of light nuclei is called blank. blank as in not actually blank. you know what im tryin to say.

Astudent throws a water balloon with speed v0 from a height h = 1.76 m at an angle θ = 21° above the horizontal toward a target on the ground. the target is located a horizontal distance d = 9.5 m from the student’s feet. assume that the balloon moves without air resistance. use a cartesian coordinate system with the origin at the balloon's initial position. (a) what is the position vector, rtarge t, that originates from the balloon's original position and terminates at the target? put this in terms of h and d, and represent it as a vector using i and j. (b) in terms of the variables in the problem, determine the time, t, after the launch it takes the balloon to reach the target. your answer should not include h. (c) create an expression for the balloon's vertical position as a function of time, y(t), in terms of t, vo, g, and θ. (d) determine the magnitude of the balloon's initial velocity, v0, in meters per second, by eliminating t from the previous two expressions.
