the car's friction is reduced to zero

the car's centripetal force drops to zero

the car continues in a straight path from the point at which it encountered the ice

When a car is travelling in a circular path then for the circular motion of the the centripetal force is provided by the friction force

This friction force will help to take turn in circular path

Now during the motion of car if friction suddenly disappear due to which there is no centripetal force will act on it

Since there is no centripetal force on the car so now it will not be able to take turn

so here is the possible outcomes

A.) the car's friction is reduced to zero.  

B.) the car's centripetal force drops to zero.  

C.) the car continues in a straight path from the point at which it encountered the ice.

You apply a horizontal force of 25N to push a shopping cart across the parking lot at a constant velocity. a) what is the net fo
AlekseyPX

(a) The net force on the shopping cart is zero.

(b) The the force of friction on the shopping cart is 25 N.

(c) When same force is applied to the shopping cart on a wet surface, it will move faster.

<h3>Net force on the shopping cart</h3>

The net force on the shopping cart is calculated as follows;

F(net) = F - Ff

where;

  • F is the applied force
  • Ff is the frictional force

ma = F - Ff

where;

  • a is acceleration of the cart
  • m is mass of the cart

at a constant velocity, a = 0

0 = F - Ff

F(net)  = 0

F = Ff = 25 N

Net force is zero, and frictional force is equal to applied force.

<h3>On wet surface</h3>

Coefficient of kinetic friction of solid surface is greater than that of wet surface.

Since frictional force limit motion, when the frictional force is smaller, the object tends to move faster.

Thus, the cart will move faster on a wet surface due to decrease in friction.

Natali [406]
For the answer to the question above, on Earth, a one-pound object has a mass of about 0.453592 kilograms. 

<span>Therefore the man's mass is 155 * 0.453592 = 70.30676 kilograms. </span>

<span>The part about the Moon's gravity is irrelevant. While the weight of a person or object would be different on the Moon, the mass would be the same.</span>

How many joules of work are done on an object when a force of 10 N pushes it 5 m?
zhenek [66]

Answer:

option C

Explanation:

given,                            

Force on the object = 10 N

distance of push = 5 m

Work done = ?              

we know,              

work done is equal to Force into displacement.

W = F . s            

W = 10 x 5              

W = 50 J                

Work done by the object when 10 N force is applied is equal to 50 J

Hence, the correct answer is option C
