When rebuilding her car's engine, a physics major must exert 405 N of force to insert a dry steel piston into a steel cylinder. What is the magnitude of the normal force in newtons between the piston and cylinder

Respuesta :

Answer:

[tex]N=675N[/tex]

Explanation:

From the question we are told that:

Force [tex]F=405N[/tex]

Generally the equation for Normal force in this case is is mathematically given by

 [tex]F=\mu_s N[/tex]

Where

Static Friction=[tex]\mu_s[/tex]

 [tex]\mu_s=0.6[/tex]

Therefore

 [tex]N=\frac{F}{\mu_s}[/tex]

 [tex]N=\frac{405}{0.6}[/tex]

 [tex]N=675N[/tex]
