Kinetic friction is less than static friction.
mel-nik [20]3 years ago
3 0

Answer:

This is because the heavy carton requires a net force to move.

Explanation:

When the carton is initially at rest, its acceleration is zero. A force F which is greater than the static frictional force, f on it has to be exerted on it to produce a net force which will thus produce a net acceleration.

So, F - f = ma. So, F = f + ma.

So, the force applied, equals the net force plus the frictional force on the heavy carton.

At constant velocity, the acceleration is zero and thus the net force required to keep the object in motion just balances the kinetic friction on it. If F is the force applied and f the kinetic friction, F - f = ma = 0. So, F = f which is less than calculated above.

So, a heavy carton is more difficult to move from rest than to keep pushing it with a constant velocity because, a net force is required to start moving the heavy carton from rest,and no net force is required to keep pushing it at constant velocity.

A car accelerates from rest at -3.00m/s^2. What is the velocity at the end of 5.0s? What is the displacement after5.0s?
Andrew [12]

Speed = (acceleration) x (time)
Velocity = (speed) in (direction of the speed)

Speed = (-3 m/s²) x (5 s) = 15 m/s
Velocity =
             (15 m/s) in the direction opposite to the direction you call positive
.

Displacement = (distance between start-point and end-point)
                           in the direction from start-point to end-point.

Distance = (1/2) (acceleration) (time)²
Distance = (1/2) (3 m/s²) (5 s)²
                 = (1/2) (3 m/s²) (25 s²)  =  37.5 meters

Displacement =
                     37.5 meters in the direction opposite to the direction you call positive.

Why do you think the combined wave is more powerful than either the transverse or longitudinal wave with the same amplitude
liq [111]

Answer:

Explanation:

The combined wave only end up been more powerful than the Longitudinal wave. This means, the transverse wave is more powerful than the combined wave. In transverse wave, the oscillation is perpendicular to the direction of the wave, while in longitudinal wave, the motion of the movement of the object is parallel to the movement of the wave. And in combined wave, the movement of the medium is in a circular manner,
