2. A 6.0 kg mass is pulled along a horizontal surface where the coefficient of friction is 0.20. a) What is the friction force acting on the mass?
b) What force is needed to accelerate it at 0.68 m/s^(2)?

Below

Explanation:

a) To find the force of friction acting on the mass we can use this formula :

     friction = coefficientoffriction x normal force

First we need to find the normal force of this object :

     Fn = mg

          = (6.0)(9.8)

          = 58.8 N

Now we can find the force of friction acting on the object :

     friction = (0.20)(58.8N)

                 = 11.76 N

                 = 12 N (we round this to 2 sig figs)

b) To find the force needed to accelerate this object at 0.68 m/s^2 use this :

     F = ma

     0.68 = x - 11.76 / 6

     x = 15.84

     x = 16 N

Hope this helps! Best of luck <3

explanation:

dopamine..

"it was found that some people who were taking the drug l-dopa to raise their levels of dopamine were developing schizophrenic-like symptoms supporting research a strength of the dopamine hypothesis is that there are many studies which have shown support for the neurochemical explanation."
