A good reason would be to keep something stationary and from sliding.

Answer:

Explanation: Increasing friction between surface have so many good reasons such as - generating more heat between surfaces, avoiding slippage from smooth surfaces, reducing speed of vehicles. Friction force is the force automatically acting in opposite direction of motion. Friction can be dry friction force and fluid friction force depending upon the medium of motion of object.

The amplitude of oscillation is the maximum distance between the oscillating weight and the equilibrium position. Determine the
Eva8 [605]

Answer:

The frequency does not depend on the amplitude for any (ideal) mechanical or electromagnetic waves.

In electromagnetism we have that the relation is:

Velocity = wavelenght*frequency.

So the amplitude of the wave does not have any effect here.

For a mechanical system like an harmonic oscillator (that can be used to describe almost any oscillating system), we have that the frequency is:  

f = (1/2*pi)*√(k/m)

Where m is the mass and k is the constant of the spring, again, you can see that the frequency only depends on the physical properties of the system, and no in how much you displace it from the equilibrium position.

This happens because as more you displace the mass from the equilibrium position, more will be the force acting on the mass, so while the "path" that the mass has to travel is bigger, the mas moves faster, so the frequency remains unaffected.

How do you calculate the magnitude of a force?
Tamiku [17]
If the force equals, for instance, 100 Newtons then 0.866 × 100 = 86.6 Newtons. This is the magnitude of the resultant force vector on the object.

A spring has a spring constant of 81 N · m−1. What is the force (in N) required to do the following? (Enter the magnitude.) (a)
DochEvi [55]

Explanation:

It is given that,

Spring constant, k = 81 N/m

We need to find the force required to :

(a) Compress the spring by 6 cm i.e. x₁ = 6 cm = -0.06 m

It can be calculated using Hooke's law as :

F = - k(-x₁)

F=81\ N/m\times 0.06\ m

F = 4.86 N

(b) Expand the spring by 17 cm i.e. x₂ = 17 cm = +0.17 m

So, F = -kx₂

F=-81\ N/m\times 0.17\ m

F = -13.77 N

Hence, this is the required solution.
