How does friction make it possible for you to walk across the floor?

1 answer:

5 0

if we are walking on a perfectly smooth ground which has no friction our force would simply cancel out the force reverted by the ground and we would fall.

We need it to help push out feet off the ground

Hope those helps :)

Bonds: Including Carbon Compounds Quick Check

Sever21 [200]

Metallic bonds are responsible for many properties of metals, such as conductivity. This is because the bonds can shift because valence electrons are held loosely and move freely. That is option C.

<h3>What are metallic bonds?</h3>

Metallic bonds are defined as those bonds that causes the electrostatic attraction between metal cations and delocalized electrons of another metallic substance.

The characteristics of a metallic compound with metallic bonds include the following:

strength,

malleability,

ductility,

thermal and electrical conductivity,

opacity and

luster.

The metallic bonds of these metallic atoms gives them conductivity features because the electrons from the outer shells of the metal atoms are delocalised , and are free to move through the whole structure.

Imagine a 10kg block moving with a velocity of 20m/s to the left.

lara31 [8.8K]

Kinetic energy , KE= [1/2]m*v^2

m = 10 kg
v=20m/s

KE = [1/][(10kg)(20m/s)^2 = [1/2](10kg)(400m^2/s^2) = 2000 joule

Answer: 2000 joule

Two infinite plane sheets with uniform surface charge densities are placed parallel to each other with separation d. in the regi

kupik [55]

Answer:Uniform between the plates

Explanation:

Electric Field due to infinite sheet with uniform charge is given by

$E=\dfrac{\sigma }{\epsilon _0}$

Where $\sigma$ =charge density

$\epsilon _0$ =Space Permittivity

From the formula we can see that Electric field is independent of distance of the particle, so it is uniform between the plates .

A force of 10 N acts on an object with a mass of 10 kg. What is its acceleration? A. 1 m/s2 B. 10 m/s2 C. 2 m/s2 D. 5 m/s2

Akimi4 [234]

The acceleration exerted by the object of mass 10 kg is $\mathbf{1} m / \boldsymbol{s}^{2}$

Answer: Option A

<u>Explanation:</u>

According to Newton’s second law of motion, any external force acting on a body will be directly proportional to the mass of the body as well as acceleration exerted by the body. So, the net external force acting on any object will be equal to the product of mass of the object with acceleration exerted by the object. Thus,

$Force = Mass \times Acceleration$

So,

$Acceleration=\frac{\text {Force}}{\text {Mass}}$

As the force acting on the object is stated as 10 N and the mass of the object is given as 10 kg, then the acceleration will be

$Acceleration =\frac{10 \mathrm{N}}{10 \mathrm{kg}}=1 \mathrm{m} / \mathrm{s}^{2}$

So, the acceleration exerted by the object of mass 10 kg is $\mathbf{1} m / \boldsymbol{s}^{2}$
