Answer:
4. It is the force of the road on the tires (an external force) that stops the car.
Explanation:
If there is no friction between the road and the tires, the car won't stop.
You can see this, for example, when there is ice on the road. You can still apply the brakes (internal force), but since there is no friction (external force) the car won't stop.
The force of the brakes on the wheels is not what makes the car stop, it is the friction of the road against still tires that makes it stop.
Answer:
The SI unit of intensity is the watt per square meter/metre (W/m^2.)
Explanation:
Intensity is equal to the power transferred per unit area. Since power is measured in watts (W) and 1 W = 1 J/s, then intensity can be viewed as how fast energy goes through a certain area.
In physics, intensity is often used when studying light, sound, or other phenomena that involve waves or energy transfer. (With waves, the power value is taken as the average power transfer over the wave's period.)
W = _|....F*dx*cos(a)........With F=force, x=distance over which force acts on object,
.......0.............................and a=angle between force and direction of travel.
Since the force is constant in this case we don't need the equation to be an integral expression, and since the force in question - the force of friction - is always precisely opposite the direction of travel (which makes (a) equal to 180 deg, and cos(a) equal to -1) the equation can be rewritted like so:
W = F*x*(-1) ............ or ............. W = -F*x
The force of friction is given by the equation: Ffriction = Fnormal*(coeff of friction)
Also, note that the total work is the sum of all 45 passes by the sandpaper. So our final equation, when Ffriction is substituted, is:
W = (-45)(Fnormal)(coeff of friction)(distance)
W = (-45)...(1.8N).........(0.92).........(0.15m)
W = ................-11.178 Joules
The answer is to this question D
