The coefficient of friction is 0.5.

<h3>What is Coefficient of friction?</h3>

The ratio of friction force to normal force is known as the coefficient of friction (COF), which has no dimensions. Those materials are said to as lubricous if their COF is less than 0.1. Surface roughness and COF are dependent on the composition of the materials.

Initial velocity, u=30m/s

time taken = 6s

Final velocity, v=0

Acceleration of friction, a=μg=10μms⁻²

Apply first kinematic equation of motion,

v - u = at

0 - 30 = (-10μms⁻²) × 6

-30 = -60μ

μ = 1/2

μ = 0..5

Hence, coefficient of friction is 0.5

If two cars A and B are moving with velocity 60 km/hr and 80 km/hr

Vitek1552 [10]

Answer:

VAB = 20km/hr

Explanation:

<u>Given the following data;</u>

Velocity of car A, VA = 60km/hr

Velocity of car B, VB = 80km/hr

To find the relative velocity of B w.r.t A, VAB;

Since the two cars are moving in the same direction, we have;

VAB = VB - VA

Substituting into the equation, we have;

VAB = 80 - 60

Therefore, the relative velocity of car B with respect to car A is 20 kilometers per hour.

A boat moves through the water of a river at 10m/s relative to the water, regardless of the boat ‘s direction . If the water in

katen-ka-za [31]

Answer:

The appropriate solution is "61.37 s".

Explanation:

The given values are:

Boat moves,

= 10 m/s

Water flowing,

= 1.50 m/s

Displacement,

d = 300 m

Now,

The boat is travelling,

= $10+1.50$

= $11.5 \ m/s$

Travelling such distance for 300 m will be:

⇒ $v = \frac{d}{t} \ sot \ t$

$=\frac{d}{v}$

On putting the values, we get

$=\frac{300}{11.5}$

$=26.08 \ s$

Throughout the opposite direction, when the boat seems to be travelling then,

= $10-1.50$

= $8.5 \ m/s$

Travelling such distance for 300 m will be:

⇒ $v=\frac{v}{t} \ sot \ t$

$=\frac{d}{v}$

On putting the values, we get

$=\frac{300}{8.5}$

$=35.29 \ s$

hence,

The time taken by the boat will be:

= $26.08+35.29$

= $61.37 \ s$

Which is an example of an unstructured activity that promotes resistance training?

aleksandrvk [35]

One possible unstructured activity that promotes resistance training would be climbing playground equimpent - A.

This is by nature a unstructured ctivity. Furthermore, it promotes resistance training because you're forced to move and pull and push yourself.
