Answer:

Friction:-

The friction force is the force exerted by a surface as an object moves across it or makes an effort to move across it. There are at least two types of friction force - sliding and static friction. Though it is not always the case, the friction force often opposes the motion of an object. For example, if a book slides across the surface of a desk, then the desk exerts a friction force in the opposite direction of its motion. Friction results from the two surfaces being pressed together closely, causing inter molecular attractive forces between molecules of different surfaces. As such, friction depends upon the nature of the two surfaces and upon the degree to which they are pressed together. The maximum amount of friction force that a surface can exert upon an

EG:-

A coaster sliding against a table.

Gravity:-

The force of gravity is the force with which the earth, moon, or other massively large object attracts another object towards itself. By definition, this is the weight of the object. All objects upon earth experience a force of gravity that is directed "downward" towards the center of the earth. The force of gravity on earth is always equal to the weight of the object as found

EG:-

The force that causes a car to coast downhill even when you aren't stepping on the gas.

Elastic:-

Elasticity is the ability of a material to return to its original shape after being stretched or compressed. When an elastic material is stretched or compressed, it exerts elastic force. This force increases the more the material is stretched or compressed.

EG:-

An archer's stretched bow

The number of electrons an atom would gain or lose when forming ionic bonds. It can be positive, negative or zero.
vaieri [72.5K]

Answer:

<u>In an ionic bond , an element will have to lose or gain electrons.</u>

Explanation:

  • Ionic bond, also called electrovalent bond, type of linkage formed from the electrostatic attraction between oppositely charged ions in a chemical compound.
  • Such a bond forms when the valence (outermost) electrons of one atom are transferred permanently to another atom.
  • <em>The atom that loses the electrons becomes a positively charged ion (cation), while the one that gains them becomes a negatively charged ion (anion).</em>

∴

  • <em>The number of electrons an atom would gain or lose when forming ionic bonds cannot be zero.</em>

A piece of rope is pulled by two people in a tug-of-war. each exerts a 400-n force. what is the tension in the rope?
Leokris [45]
Newtons 3.law: Action = Reaction

If a body exerts a force on a rope of 400 N the rope exerts a force on the body of 400N also. So the tension in the rope is 400N. See pictures below.

A 45.0 kg skier testing a new competitive ski wax drops off a ledge, goes into a crouch and goes straight down a slope of 10.0◦
Neko [114]

Answer:

v = 21.03 m/s

Explanation:

given,

mass of skier = 45 kg        

the slope of the snow = 10.0◦      

coefficient of friction = 0.114  

distance traveled = 300 m      

speed = ?              

Acceleration = g sin θ - µ g Cos θ        

= 9.8 × Sin (10°) - 0.10 × 9.8 × Cos(10°)        

= 0.737 m/s²      

using equation of motion        

v² = u² + 2 a s        

v² = 0 + 2 × 0.737 × 300            

v = 21.03 m/s                  

Speed of skier's after travelling 300 m speed is  equal to 21.03 m/s

A crane lifts a load of 15000N to a height 40m in 50 seconds. Calculate the power of the crane​
Nataly [62]

Answer:

P = 12000 W

Explanation:

General data:

  • F = 15000 N
  • d = 40 m
  • t = 50 s
  • P = ?

Work is force times unit of distance. So in order to calculate the power we must first calculate the work.

Formula:

  • \boxed{\bold{W=\frac{F}{d}}}

Replace and solve

  • \boxed{\bold{W=\frac{15000\ N}{40\ m}}}
  • \boxed{\bold{W=600000\ J}}

once the work is found, we proceed to find the power according to the formula:

  • \boxed{\bold{P=\frac{W}{t}}}
  • \boxed{\bold{P=\frac{600000\ J}{50\ s}}}
  • \boxed{\boxed{\bold{P=12000\ W}}}

The power of the crane is <u>12000 Watts.</u>

Greetings.
