1. What are the two factors affecting friction

1 answer:

5 0

Answer: a.) Roughness of the surfaces in contact with each other .
Higher the roughness of surfaces in contact with each other, greater is the friction between bodies. Force of friction will be less between smooth surfaces.

b.) Weight of the sliding/rolling body: greater the weight of the moving body on the surface, more is the force of friction on the body by the surface.

I hope this helps

sergiy2304 [10]

Explanation:

Crossing over is the swapping of genetic material that occurs in the germ line. During the formation of egg and sperm cells, also known as meiosis, paired chromosomes from each parent align so that similar DNA sequences from the paired chromosomes cross over one another.

A box at rest is in a state of equilibrium half way up on a ramp. The ramp has an incline of 42° . What is the force of static f

olchik [2.2K]

Answer:

Explanation:

The force of static friction acting on the box is the frictional force;

Frictional force Ff = Wsin theta (force acting along the ramp)

W is the gravitational force known as the weight

Ff = 112.1sin42°

Ff = 112.1(0.6691)

Ff = 75.00N

Hence he force of static friction acting on the box if box has a gravitational force of 112.1 N id 75.00N

The current on the water layer = 1.64×10^-3A

Explanation:

Let's assume that the radius given for the string originates from the centre of the string. The equation for determining the current in the water layer is given by:

I = V × pi[(Rwater + Rstring)^2 - (Rstring)^2/ ( Resitivity × L)

I =[ 166×10^6 ×3.142[(0.519×10^-4) + (2.15×10^-3])^2 - ( 2.15×10^-3)^2] / ( 183 × 831)

I =[ 521572000(4.848×10^6)- 4.623×10^-6]/ 154566

I = 252.83 -(4.623×10^-6)/ 154566

I = 252.83/154566

I = 1.64× 10^-3A
