    Calculating Mass from Applied Force and Coefficient of Kinetic Friction

    Ok this is what I have come up with::: F(friction) = 524cos12= 513N so now I have, F(friction) =(uk)(Fn) Fn= F(friction)/ (uk) = 513/0.15 =3420 Weight= 3420- 524sin12 =3308 So, Weight = mg m=weight/g =3308/9.81 =340kg ? I hope...

    I don't know. I don't understand. Thanks anyway.

    Calculating Mass from Applied Force and Coefficient of Kinetic Friction

    I do have a free body diagram that my teacher said is correct. I know normal force =mg. But if I don't have the mass how can I find the normal force? I know I have to substract the frictional force but again I need the mass to figure this out. Right?

    Calculating Mass from Applied Force and Coefficient of Kinetic Friction

    So that would be the Fy value? Which is 524Sin12= 108.945726 then I add this value to the Fx value? So, F(normal force) = 108.945726+512.5493428 =621.5 N ?

    Calculating Mass from Applied Force and Coefficient of Kinetic Friction

    but the question is asking for the weight...is it not?

    Silly math problem on precipitation

    okay so here is my attempt... convert---> 1.01600 to meters and 86 km squared to meters and then... 0.01016 x 9270 x 9270 = 873, 078.3m^2 now to compare 24 hours in seconds/ 5.8m^2 per second= 86400/ 33.64=2568.37 So, therefore, the volume of water over Guelph city is greater than...
