When the weight of the object increase block what is the force of friction applied? Explanation?
erik [133]

Answer:

There is absolutely No relationship between the weight of an object (which is constant) and the frictional force. If a block is sliding on a surface, that surface will be exerting a force on the block. That force can be resolved into a component parallel to the surface (which we call the frictional component), and a component perpendicular to the surface (called the normal component). For many situations, we find experimentally that the frictional component is approximately proportional to the normal component. The frictional component divided by the normal component is defined to be a quantity called the coefficient of kinetic or sliding friction. The coefficient of kinetic friction obviously depends on the nature of the surfaces involved. The normal component on an object can be decreased if you pull in the direction of the normal component (the weight does not change). However pulling this way on the object not only decreases the normal component, but it also decreases the frictional component since they are proportional. This is why it is easier to slide something if you pull up on it while you push it. If you push down, the normal and frictional components increase so it is harder to slide the object. The weight of an object is the downward force exerted by Earth’s gravity on that object, and it does not change no matter how you push or pull on the object.

Which ball has the greater average speed during the 1-s interval after release (assuming neither hits the ground during that tim
notka56 [123]

Answer:

The ball thrown downward

Explanation:

When the ball is thrown vertically, the acceleration of it is the gravity acceleration independent if it is thrown downward or upward. However, the acceleration is a vector, so, when the ball is thrown upward, the movement is against the gravity, so the acceleration is negative, and so, the velocity decreases during time; and when the ball is thrown downward, the movement goes to the gravity, so the acceleration is positive, so the velocity increase after time passes.

Which process is the most scientifically plausible explanation for how the organisms released oxygen into Earth's atmosphere? Gr
Stels [109]

Answer:

Photosynthesis

Explanation:

Studies about the time period of oxygen accumulation suggests that free oxygen was first produced by prokaryotic and then later by eukaryotic organisms in the ocean. These organisms carried out photosynthesis more efficiently, producing oxygen as a waste product.

The organism mainly responsible for this is known as cyanobacteria, or blue-green algae. These microbes conduct photosynthesis: using sunshine, water and carbon dioxide to produce carbohydrates and, oxygen.

Answer:

Passed into the power grid for others to use the electricity

Explanation:

If a home uses a large supply of solar panels to generate electricity, but has no battery system, surplus electricity that is produced is usually passed into the power grid for others to use the electricity, generating a income to the homeowner
