Answer:Frictional Force refers to the force generated by two surfaces that contacts and slides against each other. These forces are mainly affected by the surface texture and amount of force impelling them together. The angle and position of the object affect the amount of frictional force.

Force that opposes a motion of a body in opposite direction

Friction is a force that is created whenever two surfaces move or try to move across each other. Friction always opposes the motion or attempted motion of one surface across another surface. Friction is dependant on the texture of both surfaces.

To stop a moving object, a force must act in the direction opposite to that of the motion. Friction is a force that opposes the motion of an object. There are different types of friction, such as static, fluid and rolling friction

Answer:

$a=4.44\frac{m}{s^2}$

Explanation:

First we have to find the time required for train to travel 60 meters and impact the car, this is an uniform linear motion:

$t=\frac{d}{v}\\\\t=\frac{60m}{30\frac{m}{s}}=2s$

The reaction time of the driver before starting to accelerate was 0.50 seconds. So, remaining time for driver is 1.5 seconds.

Now, we have to calculate the distance traveled for the driver in this 0.5 seconds before he start to accelerate. Again, is an uniform linear motion:

$d=vt\\d=20\frac{m}{s}(0.5s)=10m$

The driver cover 10 meters in this 0.5 seconds. So, the remaining distance to be cover in 1.5 seconds by the driver are 35 meters. We calculate the minimum acceleration required by the car in order to cross the tracks before the train arrive, Since this is an uniformly accelerated motion, we use the following equation:

$d=v_0t+\frac{1}{2}at^2\\a=\frac{2(d-v_0t)}{t^2}\\a=\frac{2(35m-20\frac{m}{s}*1.5s}{(1.5s)^2}\\a=4.44\frac{m}{s^2}$

Help. I need to find the degree using the sine law.

Marina CMI [18]

Use pythagorean theorem
$a ^{2} + b {}^{2} = c {}^{2}$
to find the opposite side, which is 7.3

so then you can just use inverse sinA=7.3/10 which equals 46.9 degrees

The height (in meters) of a projectile shot vertically upward from a point 2 m above ground level with an initial velocity of 23

Burka [1]

Answer:

a) $v(2) = 3.9\,\frac{m}{s}$ , b) $v(4) = -15.7\,\frac{m}{s}$

Explanation:

a) The equation for vertical velocity is obtained by deriving the function with respect to time:

$v(t) = 23.5 -9.8\cdot t$

The velocities at given instants are, respectivelly:

$v(2) = 3.9\,\frac{m}{s}$

$v(4) = -15.7\,\frac{m}{s}$

An atom emits a light wave with a wavelength of 449 nm. what type or color of light does this represent?

Vinvika [58]

The visible spectrum ranges from 390 nm to 700 nm. the visible spectrum consist of the red ( 620 - 750 nm ) , orange ( 590 - 620 nm ) , yellow ( 570 - 590 nm ) , green ( 495 - 570 nm ) , blue ( 450 - 495 nm ) and violet ( 380 - 450 nm ) so the wave length 449 nm will produce a violet color
