<span>A. kinetic energy. </span>

Friction converts kinetic energy into heat, and so it represents a net loss of mechanical energy. When surfaces in contact move relative to each other, the friction between the two surfaces converts kinetic energy into heat. As demonstrated by the use of friction created by rubbing pieces of wood together to start a fire, kinetic energy is converted to heat whenever motion with friction occurs. The friction produced by brake pads in a car must generate a quantity of heat equal to the kinetic energy of the car and as a result, the brakes get quite hot.

What is playing catch? ( in terms of the force of the air interacting with ball )

Ugo [173]

Playing catch involves the ball moving in one direction in the air when you exert force. When the ball is in air, there is a gravitational force and a little it of backward air resistance until the other person catches it.

A horizontal force of 100 N is required to push a 50 kg crate across a factory floor at a constant speed. What is the accelerati

luda_lava [24]

Answer:

a = 2m/s^2

Explanation:

Force (F) = 100 N

Mass (m) = 50 kg

Here,

F = m×a

100 = 50 × a

a = 100÷50

a = 2m/s^2

Thus, the acceleration on the cart is a = 2m/s^2

In February 1955, a paratrooper fell 370 m from an airplane without being able to open his chute but happened to land in snow, s

nevsk [136]

a) 0.94 m

The work done by the snow to decelerate the paratrooper is equal to the change in kinetic energy of the man:

$W=\Delta K\\-F d = \frac{1}{2}mv^2 - \frac{1}{2}mu^2$

where:

$F=1.1 \cdot 10^5 N$ is the force applied by the snow

d is the displacement of the man in the snow, so it is the depth of the snow that stopped him

m = 68 kg is the man's mass

v = 0 is the final speed of the man

u = 55 m/s is the initial speed of the man (when it touches the ground)

and where the negative sign in the work is due to the fact that the force exerted by the snow on the man (upward) is opposite to the displacement of the man (downward)

Solving the equation for d, we find:

$d=\frac{1}{2F}mu^2 = \frac{(68 kg)(55 m/s)^2}{2(1.1\cdot 10^5 N)}=0.94 m$
