an applied force of 20 n is used to accelerate an object to the right across a
frictional surface. the object encounters 10 n of friction. use the diagram
to determine the normal force, the net force, the coefficient of friction
between the object and the surface, the mass, and the acceleration of the
object. (neglect air resistance.)

Explanation:

To determine the normal force, we just need to analyze the situation along the vertical direction.

The box along the vertical direction is in equilibrium, so the equation of the forces is

which means that

The net force can be determined by looking at the situation along the horizontal direction (since the net force in the vertical direction) is zero. Here we have:

- An applied force of 20 N forward,

- A frictional force of 10 N backward,

So, the net force is

in the forward direction

The expression for the frictional force is

where is the coefficient of friction. Solving for ,

The force of gravity is given by

where m is the mass of the object and . Solving for m, we find the mass of the object:

Finally, the acceleration can be found by using Newton's second law

where a is the acceleration. Solving for a,

hello, i am papaguy.

i have found an answer to your question but use it as information.

information: because weak acids/bases have low concentration of hydrogen ions, the addition of water has a large impact on the ph. 2. a difference in 1 unit is a 10x difference in concentration for example; a liquid with ph of 3 is 10x more acidic than a liquid with a ph of 4. therefore, a liquid with a ph of 3 is stronger.

best of luck!
