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

Explain the difference between a conductor and an insulator. Give two examples of each.

docker41 [41]

There are different kinds of conductors, most notably electrical and thermal conductors. But they are often inclusive of each other (electrical conductors are typically good thermal conductors). A conductor transmits something through its body with high efficiency while an insulator does not transmit very well. In the case of electricity, a conductor transmits electrical energy between two points while an insulator blocks the flow of electricity. Two examples of conductors are copper and silver. Two examples of insulators are wood and styrofoam.

A blackbody curve relates _____. intensity of radiation to energy intensity of radiation to wavelength wavelength to energy surf

neonofarm [45]

A blackbody curve represents the relation between intensity of radiation with wavelength.

Here in this curve we can see that all ideal blackbody radiates almost all wavelength of radiations and these radiations are of different intensity.

here intensity will be maximum for a given wavelength of radiation and the relation of this wavelength with the temperature of the object is given by Wein's law

It is given by

$\lambda = \frac{b}{T}$

now if we increase the temperature the maximum intensity for which wavelength is given will shift to the left.

Using this all we can also compare the temperature of two blackbody for which radiation graph is given to us.

A quarterback back pedals 3.3 meters southward and then runs 5.7 meters northward. For this motion, what is the distance moved?

mixas84 [53]

Answer:

The distance moved is 9 meters

The magnitude of the displacement is 2.4 meters

The direction of the displacement is northward

Explanation:

- Distance is the length of the actual path between the initial and the

final position. Distance is a scalar quantity

- Displacement is the change in position, measuring from its starting

position to the final position. Displacement is a vector quantity

The quarterback pedals 3.3 meters southward

That means it moves down 3.3 meters

Then runs 5.7 meters northward

That means it runs up 5.7 meters

The distance = 3.3 + 5.7 = 9 meters

The distance moved is 9 meters

It moves southward (down) for 3.3 meters and then moves northward

(up) for 5.7

It moves from zero to 3.3 down and then moves up to 5.7

The displacement = 5.7 - 3.3 = 2.4 meters northward

The magnitude of the displacement is 2.4 meters

The direction of the displacement is northward

An experiment is designed to investigate the relation between the pressure and temperature in a tank that has a constant volume

viva [34]

Answer:

3rd order polynomial

Explanation:

Given that the increase in the order of the polynomial the error between the curve fit and measured data will decreases hence :

The polynomial order that is best to use is the 3rd order polynomial, this is because using a 3rd order polynomial will produce a less variance and a low Bias
