3000 N of friction exists between the bear and the tree.

The bear goes down at a constant speed, thus there is no acceleration. The forces add up to zero. As a result, upward friction and downward weight result in zero  

i.e.,

F-mg=0

F = mg

F = (300 kg)/10 m/s^{2} (gravitational acceleration)

3000 N frictional force equals F.

How does friction force work?

  • Friction is the force that prevents two solid objects from rolling or sliding over one another. Even though frictional forces, such as the traction required to walk without slipping, may be advantageous, they can also be a significant hindrance to motion.

Between solid surfaces, there are three basic types of friction:

  • Rolling
  • Sliding.
  • Static.                                                                                                                   They are graded from strongest to weakest. Fluid friction happens when liquids or gasses are mixed together.

Gnoma [55]

Answer:

(a) 7.1 m /sec

(b) 339.9 N/m

(c) 19.91 cm

Explanation:

We have given mass m = 267 gram = 0.267 kg

Time period T = 0.176 sec

Total energy of the oscillating  system = 6.74 J

We know that energy is given by

(a) Ke=\frac{1}{2}mv_{max}^2

6.74=\frac{1}{2}\times 0.267\times v_{max}^2

v_{max}=7.1m/sec

(b) Now \omega =\frac{2\pi }{T}=\frac{2\times 3.14}{0.176}=35.681rad/sec

We know that \omega =\sqrt{\frac{k}{m}}

35.68=\sqrt{\frac{k}{0.267}}

k=339.9N/m

(c) We know that energy is given by

E=\frac{1}{2}KA^2

6.74=\frac{1}{2}\times 339.9\times A^2

A=19.91cm

Evgesh-ka [11]

Answer;

D. where two plates collide

Explanation;

-Subduction zones are plate tectonic boundaries where two plates converge, and one plate is thrust beneath the other. This process results in geohazards, such as earthquakes and volcanoes.

-Subduction zone volcanism occurs where two plates are converging on one another. One plate containing oceanic lithosphere descends beneath the adjacent plate, thus consuming the oceanic lithosphere into the earth's mantle. This on-going process is called subduction.
