Friction occurs between two contacting surfaces. The coefficient of friction is very much dependent on the roughness of these surfaces. Some of the many ways in which the coefficient can be lessened or decreased are to lubricate the surface or make it shiny by eliminating the spikes which caused the roughness.
The minimum speed of the water must be 3.4 m/s
Explanation:
There are two forces acting on the water in the pail when it is at the top of its circular motion:
- The force of gravity, mg, acting downward (where m is the mass of the water and g the acceleration of gravity)
- The normal reaction, N also acting downward
Since the water is in circular motion, the net force must be equal to the centripetal force, so:
Where:
v is the speed of the pail
r = 1.2 m is the radius of the circle
The water starts to spill out when the normal reaction of the pail becomes zero:
N = 0
When this occurs, the equation becomes:
And substitutin the values of g and r, we find the minimum speed that the water must have in order not to spill out:

If the solution is treated as an ideal solution, the extent of freezing
point depression depends only on the solute concentration that can be
estimated by a simple linear relationship with the cryoscopic constant:
ΔTF = KF · m · i
ΔTF, the freezing point depression, is defined as TF (pure solvent) - TF
(solution).
KF, the cryoscopic constant, which is dependent on the properties of the
solvent, not the solute. Note: When conducting experiments, a higher KF
value makes it easier to observe larger drops in the freezing point.
For water, KF = 1.853 K·kg/mol.[1]
m is the molality (mol solute per kg of solvent)
i is the van 't Hoff factor (number of solute particles per mol, e.g. i =
2 for NaCl).
The answer is B tell me if I am wrong.
Answer: To increase the rigidity of the system you could hold the ruler at its midpoint so that the part of the ruler that oscillates is half as long as in the original experiment.
Explanation:
When a rule is displaced from its vertical position, it oscillates back and forth because of the restoring force opposing the displacement. That is, when the rule is on the left there is a force to the right.
By holding a ruler with one hand and deforming it with the other a force is generated in the opposite direction which is known as the restoring force. The restoring force causes the ruler to move back toward its stable equilibrium position, where the net force on it is zero. The momentum gained causes the ruler to move to the right leading to opposite deformation. This moves the ruler again to the left. The whole process is repeated until dissipative forces reduce the motion causing the ruler to come to rest.
The relationship between restoring force and displacement was described by Hooke's law. This states that displacement or deformation is directly proportional to the deforming force applied.
F= -kx, where,
F= restoring force
x= displacement or deformation
k= constant related to the rigidity of the system.
Therefore, the larger the force constant, the greater the restoring force, and the stiffer the system.
