Mary is trying to pull Julie on a sled across a flat snowy field. Mary pulls on the rope attached to the sled. Her pulling force is directed horizontally. Julie weighs 109 pounds. The sled weights 12 pounds. If the coefficient of static friction between the sled runners and the snow is 0.42, how much force must Mary pull with (in lbs) to start moving the sled

F = 498.04 lbs

Explanation: The forces acting on the sled and Julie are show in the figure below. In it, we notice that, for the sled and Julie to go accross the field, they only need force of friction, because, force of friction is a force that resists the relative motion of surfaces.

Force of friction is given by the formula

where

μ is coefficient of friction

is normal force

Normal force is the force the surface exerts on the object. It is always perpendicular and a force of contact.

In the case of the sled, since it is on a horizontal plane, Normal Force has the same magnitude of Gravitational Force. So

Coefficient of friction is how much friction exists between two surfaces.

Rearraging friction force is

Mass for this system is the sum of Julie and the sled, therefore

m = 109 + 12

m = 121 lb

Calculating Friction Force:

498.04 lbs

LBS is a unit of measurement referred as pound by weight.

In conclusion, force Mary needs to start moving the sled is 498.04 lbs

as we probably am aware that our atmosphere or air have various levels, each level has different gasses, and each gas has another porousness. at the point when the light originates from lower porousness to higher penetrability, it alters its course. with the goal that implies that when the light originates from the moon to the earth, it alters it's course a lot more occasions. it essentially implies that the state of the light piece of the moon is changed on the earth.

not copied too! hope this !

h o h o hope you have a merry christmas!
