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.

A cannon tilted upward at 30° fires a cannonball with a speed of 100 m/s. At that instant, what is the component of the cannonba
Sonja [21]

Answer:

the cannonball’s velocity parallel to the ground is 86.6m/S

Explanation:

Hello! To solve this problem remember that in a parabolic movement the horizontal component X of the velocity of the cannonball is constant while the vertical one varies with constant acceleration.

For this case we must draw the velocity triangle and find the component in X(see atached image).

V= Initial velocity=100M/S

cos30=\frac{Vx}{V}

V= Initial velocity=100M/S

Vx=cannonball’s velocity parallel to the ground

Solving for Vx

Vx=Vcos30

Vx=(100m/S)(cos30)=86.6m/s

the cannonball’s velocity parallel to the ground is 86.6m/S
