How do contact forces such as friction differ from gravitational and magnetic forces?

1 answer:

7 0

"Contact" means "touching". A contact force can't act on an object unless
they're touching. Friction is a contact force.

Gravitational forces pull masses together even if they're not touching.
Magnetic forces pull a piece of iron toward a magnet even if they're not touching.

Gravitational and magnetic forces are "non-contact" forces.

An electric motor rotating a workshop grinding wheel at 1.06 102 rev/min is switched off. Assume the wheel has a constant negati

kvasek [131]

Answer:

t = 106π / 30*2.1

Explanation:

$w_{i} = 1.06*10^{2}$ => 106

=> 106 x 2π/60

=> 106/30π

∝ = -2.1 rad/sec²

$w_{f}$ => 0

$w_{f}$ = $w_{i}$ + ∝t

∴ ( $w_{f}$ - $w_{i}$ ) / ∝ = t

t = 106π / 30*2.1
