Friction is the force you get when you (for example) Rub something with another, it's a force that may generate heat and even some resistance. Another example is rubbing your hands together, they get hot, therefore friction is working, without friction you wouldn't be able to stop moving.

Friction is the resistance of mass when on another object.
If we avoid friction, we move faster.
But, in some cases, friction is also good. It is used in car brakes, when something rubs on the wheels to make the wheels stop rolling, or rotating.
Ice skates may be another thing. They provide a little friction on the blades, to be able to stop and to be able to move.

If a toy car has a centripetal acceleration of 50 m/s2 and was making the turn at 10 m/s. what was his radius
S_A_V [24]

Answer:

Explanation:

The centripetal acceleration is expressed as;

a = v²/r

a is the acceleration = 50m/s²

v is the velocity = 10m/s

r is the radius

To get the radius

r = v²/a

r = 10²/50

r = 100/50

r = 2m

Hence its radius is 2m

A single-phase transformer has a turns ratio of 20,000/5,000. If a DC voltage of 50 V is applied to the primary winding, what wi
Kipish [7]

Sneaky question.

The secondary voltage will be zero.

Secondary voltage is the result of CHANGES in the primary voltage. That means the primary is energized with AC. The transformer in this question is energized with DC, which doesn't change. So there is no secondary voltage, this transformer doesn't work, and what you get out of it is: Smoke !

Answer:

Hey

Unlike visible light, X-rays can go through you without getting absorbed. But some of it gets absorbed but most of it passes through, this tiny bit that does get absorbed shows you the image of the baby.
