Friction<span> is the resistance to motion of one object moving relative to another. It is not a fundamental force, like gravity or electromagnetism. Instead, scientists believe it is the result of the electromagnetic attraction between charged particles in two touching surfaces.
Hope this is of great help to you, and happy studying~!

Friction is the resistance when an object moves together with a surface. Hope that helps.

A typical human consumes 2500 Kcal of energy during a day. This is the equivalent to 10,450,000 J! Say you decided to run stairs
defon

Answer:

2940.1 joules  would you burn in climbing stairs all day.

Explanation:

Work = W = F\times d

going up stairs  would be against force of gravity

W = mgh

where h is the  height

the question is not complete because we need speed or distance

h =  v \times t

so assuming 1 step per second

h = 86,400 steps  \times 7inchs/step \times 0.0254 m/inch

h = 15362 m

so from this    

W = 800 N \times 15362

   = 12289600 J  

that means YOU  need 12289600 J to walk 1 step per second all day

divide that by 4180 J /Kcal  

Kcal =  \frac{W}{(J/Kcal)}

       = \frac{12289600}{4180}

       = 2940.1 Kcal

if you ran faster you would use more energy  2 steps per second would mean 5880 Kcal.

photoshop1234 [79]

Explanation:

The angle of the handle relative to the horizontal is 35°.  The angle of the ramp to the horizontal is 7°.  So the angle of the handle relative to the ramp is 28°.

cos 28° = 50 / F

F = 50 / cos 28°

F = 56.6 lbs

Charra [1.4K]

Answer:

b) q large and m small

Explanation:

q is large and m is small

We'll express it as :

q > m

As we know the formula:

F = Eq

And we also know that :

F = Bqv

F = \frac{mv^{2} }{r}

Bqv = \frac{mv^{2} }{r}

or Eq = \frac{mv^{2} }{r}

Assume that you want a velocity selector that will allow particles of velocity v⃗  to pass straight through without deflection while also providing the best possible velocity resolution. You set the electric and magnetic fields to select the velocity v⃗ . To obtain the best possible velocity resolution (the narrowest distribution of velocities of the transmitted particles) you would want to use particles with q large and m small.

A stone that is dropped freely from rest traveled half the total height in the last second. with what velocity will it strike th
alexira [117]

Answer:

hellooooo :) ur ans is 33.5 m/s

At time t, the displacement is h/2:

Δy = v₀ t + ½ at²

h/2 = 0 + ½ gt²

h = gt²

At time t+1, the displacement is h.

Δy = v₀ t + ½ at²

h = 0 + ½ g (t + 1)²

h = ½ g (t + 1)²

Set equal and solve for t:

gt² = ½ g (t + 1)²

2t² = (t + 1)²

2t² = t² + 2t + 1

t² − 2t = 1

t² − 2t + 1 = 2

(t − 1)² = 2

t − 1 = ±√2

t = 1 ± √2

Since t > 0, t = 1 + √2.  So t+1 = 2 + √2.

At that time, the speed is:

v = at + v₀

v = g (2 + √2) + 0

v = g (2 + √2)

If g = 9.8 m/s², v = 33.5 m/s.
