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

Answer:

Option D

Explanation:

Resistors are said to be connected in “Series”, when they are daisy chained together in a single line. Since all the current flowing through the first resistor has no other way to go it must also pass through the second resistor and the third and so on. Then, resistors in series have a Common Current flowing through them as the current that flows through one resistor must also flow through the others as it can only take one path.

Total Resistance = R₁ + R₂ +R₃ +R₄ ohm

Note then that the total or equivalent resistance, R has the same effect on the circuit as the original combination of resistors as it is the algebraic sum of the individual resistances.

Total resistance R = 3 + 3 + 3 +3

                             = 12 ohm

Rom4ik [11]

Answer:

2.5m/s²

Explanation:

a = v/t

Where;

V = velocity (m/s)

a = acceleration (m/s²)

t = time (s).

According to the information provided in this question,

a = ?

v = 10m/s

t = 4

a = 10/4

a = 2.5m/s²

The record distance in the sport of throwing cowpats is 81.1 m. This record toss was set by Steve Urner of the United States in
N76 [4]

Answer:

28.2 m/s

Explanation:

The range of a projectile launched from the ground is given by:

d=\frac{v^2}{g}sin 2\theta

where

v is the initial speed

g = 9.8 m/s^2 is the acceleration of gravity

\theta is the angle at which the projectile is thrown

In this problem we have

d = 81.1 m is the range

\theta=45^{\circ} is the angle

Solving for v, we find the speed of the projectile:

v=\sqrt{\frac{dg}{sin 2 \theta}}=\sqrt{\frac{(81.1 m)(9.8 m/s^2)}{sin (2\cdot 45^{\circ})}}=28.2 m/s
