Not enough information to say.

100 pounds

300 pounds

200 pounds

2) The U. S. army needed a weapon to stop surprise attacks by lurking enemies. They developed the 45 calibre semi-automatic pistol which fires a large slug. They needed the large slug because it has a lot of

Potential

Rotation

Length

Mass

a.

b.

100 pounds

c.

300 pounds

d.

200 pounds

Explanation / Answer

1)

here,

as the velocity of crate is constant

the accelration of the crate is zero

therefore , by seccond law of newton

the net force on the crate is zero

the friction force - force applied = 0

the friction force = 200 pounds

the force of friction on the crate is 200 pounds

2)

as for contering the rebound of gun ,

they need a large mass , hence , they need a large slug beacuse it has a lot of

D) mass
