How does friction,acceleration,speed and net force relate to each other?

Friction – the force that acts to resist the relative motion (or attempted motion) of objects or materials that are in contact
Acceleration – the change in velocity per certain time interval; how quickly motion changes
Net Force – the combination of all the forces that act on an object

Isaac Newton’s Second Law of Motion (F=ma) explains the relationship between force and acceleration in motion. The application of force on an object causes an acceleration of that object. Yet, force is not the only factor in the movement, or acceleration of an object. The two main influences on the acceleration of an object are net force and mass. For example, net force is directly proportional to acceleration while mass is inversely proportional to acceleration. In other words, net force- the force that has overcome friction and accelerates an object- is directly linked to acceleration; the more force you have, the faster an object goes.Other factors such as the friction, air or fluid resistance, and pressure effect the acceleration as well. All of these factors do not work against or in accordance with acceleration in the same way. Friction works in opposition to acceleration. Friction involves two objects that are in direct contact with on another but are moving in different directions. Involved with friction is air and fluid resistance. Fluid resistance, such as liquids or gases, focuses on when the object is moving in the opposite direction of a fluid flow or through a dense area of fluid. Air resistance involves movement through the air. The most noticeable effect of air resistance is when and object travels into a strong breeze or wind. And finally pressure, pressure refers to an applied force. With pressure you will find that the overall weight of and object doesn’t change no matter how you stand or lay it but you will fill more pressure from that same object depending on the force per surface area. The weight of the object has not changed but you that area of application the force feels greater. That is the pressure increase. In Newton’s Second Law, the areas such as free falling verse vacuum suction are also compared with the falling of objects.

A lad, waiting for his friend walks in the sidewalk, in front of her house, from the front door, first, he moves towards the Pos

Andreas93 [3]

His total displacement from his original position is -1 m

We know that total displacement of an object from a position x to a position x', d = final position - initial position.

d = x' - x

If we assume the lad's initial position in front of her house is x = 0 m. The lad then moves towards the positive x-axis, 5 m. He then ends up at x' = 5 m. He then finally goes back 6 m.

Since displacement = final position - initial position, and his displacement is d' = -6 m (since he moves in the negative x - direction or moves back) from his initial position of x' = 5 m.

His final position, x" after moving back 6 m is gotten from

x" - x' = -6 m

x" = -6 + x'

x" = -6 + 5

x" = -1 m

Thus, his total displacement from his original position is

d = final position - initial position

d = x" - x

d = -1 m - 0 m

d = -1 m

So, his total displacement from his original position is -1 m

Give an example of hypothesis for an experiment and then identify its dependent and independent variables. Write all the steps o

e-lub [12.9K]

An example of a hypothesis for an experiment might be: “A basketball will bounce higher if there is more air it”

Step one would be to make an observation... “hey, my b-ball doesn’t have much air in it, and it isn’t bouncing ver high”

Step two is to form your hypothesis: “A basketball will bounce higher if there is more air it”

Step three is to test your hypothesis: maybe you want to drop the ball from a certain height, deflate it by some amount and then drop it from that same height again, and record how high the ball bounced each time.

Here the independent variable is how much air is in the basketball (what you want to change) and the dependent variable is how high the b-ball will bounce (what will change as a result of the independent variable)

Step four is to record all of your results and step five is to analyze that data. Does your data support your hypothesis? Why or why not?

You should only test one variable at a time because it is easier to tell why the results are how they are; you only have one cause.

Hope this helps!

Why should we conserve biodiversity

irga5000 [103]

Biodiversity conservation protects plant, animal, microbial and genetic resources for food production, agriculture, and ecosystem functions such as fertilizing the soil, recycling nutrients, regulating pests and disease, controlling erosion, and pollinating crops and trees.

R1=3 ohms

brilliants [131]

Answer: current I = 1.875A

Explanation:

If the resistors are connected in series,

Then the equivalent resistance will be

R = 6 + 18 + 15 + 9

R = 48 ohms

Using ohms law

V = IR

Make current I the subject of formula

I = V/R

I = 90/48

I = 1.875A

And if the resistors are connected in parallel, the equivalent resistance will be

1/R = 1/6 + 1/18 + 1/15 + 1/9

1/R = 0.166 + 0.055 + 0.066 + 0.111

R = 1/0.3999

R = 2.5 ohms

Using ohms law

V = IR

I = 90/2.5

Current I = 35.99A
