A child with a mass of 20 kg slides down a slide at an angle of 40º from the horizontal. She accelerates at 1.3 m/s2. Calculate the magnitude of the frictional force on the child

In raising a 6200-n piano with a pulley system, the movers note that, for every 2.2 m of rope pulled down, the piano rises 0.12 m . ideally, find the force required to lift the piano.

Scout feels ill one day before school. her mother puts a thermometer in her mouth and the temperature begins to climb to 100°f. what is happening between the cooler thermometer and scout's body? a) scout's body is applying a force to the particles in the thermometer. b) kinetic energy is being transferred from her mouth to the thermometer. c) potential energy is being lost by the thermometer and gained by scout's body. d) the potential energy stored in foods is converted to mechanical energy to raise the mercury in the thermometer.

Why are graphs useful when interpreting data
