Summerize how friction and inertia act on an object sliding on a flat surface

Inertia is when a object in motion will stay in motion or in a standing still state unless acted upon by a unbalancing force.
Friction is when a object slows down because it is rubbing against another object.

If a object is sliding across a surface, theoretically, it would not stop but because it is on a flat surface it would experience friction, this will disperse some of the kinetic energy that it has thus slowing the object down eventually, after some time, to a stop.

Hope this helps! :)

Find the mass if the force is 18 N and the acceleration is 2 m/s2.

Flura [38]

Answer:

<h3>The answer is 9 kg</h3>

Explanation:

To find the mass given the force and acceleration we use the formula

$m = \frac{f}{a} \\$

where

f is the force

a is the acceleration

We have

f = 18 N

a = 2 m/s²

We have

$m = \frac{18}{2} \\$

We have the final answer as

<h3>9 kg</h3>

Hope this helps you

olga55 [171]

Answer:

The value is $V = 2 V$

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

The length of the wire is $l = 10 \ m$

The current density is $J = 4*10^6 \ A/m^2$

The conductivity is $\sigma = 2*10^{7} \ S/m$

Generally conductivity is mathematically represented as

$\sigma = \frac{l}{RA}$

Here R is the resistance which is mathematically represented as

$R = \frac{V}{I}$

Here I is the current which is mathematically represented as

$I = J * A$

So

$R = \frac{V}{ J * A}$

And

$\sigma = \frac{l}{\frac{V}{ J * A} * A}$

=> $\sigma = \frac{l}{\frac{V}{J}}$

=> $V = \frac{l * J}{\sigma }$

=> $V = \frac{10 * 4*10^6}{2*10^{7} }$

=> $V = 2 V$
