A carpenter uses sandpaper on a piece of wood. Before, the wood felt rough. After, the wood felt smooth. Did the friction betwee

n the hand and the wood increase or decrease after using the sandpaper? Describe what the sandpaper did to the wood to make it smoother.

Answer:

<em>Friction between the hand and the wood decreased.</em>

Explanation:

The texture of the wood went from rough → smooth! This means friction between the hand and the wood was notably decreased.

According to this prompt, the carpenter used <em>sandpaper </em>against the wood. Sandpaper just so happens to be a very abrasive substance. The sandpaper polished and leveled out the wood which wore all the jutting bits away.- overall, making it much smoother and more pleasant to touch!

Which would exert more pressure on the floor, a 100kg man wearing snow shoes or a 60kg woman wearing high heels? PLEASE EXPLAIN
iris [78.8K]

Pressure can be defined as the force acting on a perpendicular surface per unit area.

Force exerted by a man of mass 100 kg wearing snow shoes = m.a

Where m = mass of the man = 100 kg

a = acceleration due to gravity= 9.8 m/s^{2}

Force exerted by the man of mass 100 kg = 100 kg(9.8 m/s^{2}) = 980 N

Force exerted by woman of mass 60 kg = 60 kg(9.8 m/s^{2}) = 588 N

Force exerted by 100 kg man is greater than that exerted as 60 kg woman. The area on which this force is acting determines the pressure. Pressure is inversely proportional to the area on which the force acts. Therefore, the pressure exerted by 100 kg man wearing snow shoes is less than the pressure exerted by a 60 kg woman woman wearing high heels as the force acts over a larger area when the man wears snow shoes when compared to the force exerted over a smaller area in case of the woman wearing high heels.

State, in terms of the arrangement of atoms, the difference in hardness between diamond and graphite.
sleet_krkn [62]

The difference in hardness between diamond and graphite is that diamond has an ordered arrangement of atoms within its structure that makes it harder and stronger than graphite. This is due to the high pressure and high temperature that it went.
