Positive - Friction allows us to create heat in a desperate situation, like being lost in the woods. If we didn't have friction, we would probably freeze to death.
Negative - Friction can also cause unwanted fires, such as forest fires. If friction didn't exist, we wouldn't have these.
Answer:
Explanation:
since force is applied downwards at some angle with the horizontal
so here we will have
now we know that the box will not move if applied force is balanced by frictional force on it
so we will have
so here we can say
D = (1/2)·at²
where d is the distance fallen, a is the acceleration (g in this problem), and t is the time
d = (1/2)·(9.8 m/s²)·(30 s)² = (1/2)·(9.8)·(900) m
d = 4410 m
The answer is b) 4410 m
Note: the mass of the raindrop is irrelevant since the acceleration due to gravity is independent of mass. (Galileo's Leaning Tower of Pisa experiment)
= 454.55 g/cm3
I'm not too sure since the graduated cylinder was missing and I really don't know how to do it then. But give this a shot. Are you sure it wasn't a graduated cylinder, because I have no idea what that means
Density is the ratio of a substance's mass to its volume. On the other hand, according to Archimedes' principle, the volume of water displaced is equal to the volume of the object placed on the water. Thus, the density of the metal is equal to 8.39 mL. So, the density would be
Density = 32.5 g/8.39 mL = 3.87 g/mL
