Which surface produces the least friction when someone walks on it

Physics
1 answer:
Alika [10]3 years ago
6 0

Answer: B Ice

The friction depends on the texture of the surface. A rough surface has more friction. The carpet or wooden surface that we usually walk on have fairly enough friction. We don't slip on sand also much but to walk on ice it requires spokes as you also see while doing ice skating it is very difficult to stand on ice. This is because of low friction on ice floor.

An object thrown vertically upward from the surface of a celestial body at a velocity of 36 ​m/s reaches a height of sequalsminu
Anarel [89]

Answer:

v = -1.8t+36

20 seconds

360 m

40 seconds

36 m/s

The object speed will increase when it is coming down from its highest height.

Explanation:

s=-0.9t^2+36t

Differentiating with respect to time we get

\frac{ds}{dt}=-1.8t+36\\\Rightarrow v=-1.8t+36

a) Velocity of the object after t seconds is v = -1.8t+36

At the highest point v will be 0

0=-1.8t+36\\\Rightarrow t=\frac{-36}{-1.8}\\\Rightarrow t=20\ s

b) The object will reach the highest point after 20 seconds

s=-0.9t^2+36t\\\Rightarrow s=-0.9\times 20^2+36\times 20\\\Rightarrow s=360\ m

c) Highest point the object will reach is 360 m

s=-0.9t^2+36t\\\Rightarrow 360=-0.9t^2+36t\\\Rightarrow -0.9t^2+36t-360=0\\\Rightarrow -9t^2+360t-3600=0

\frac{-360\pm \sqrt{0}}{2\left(-9\right)}\\\Rightarrow t=20\ s

d) Time taken to strike the ground would be 20+20 = 40 seconds

[tex]v=u+at\\\Rightarrow v=0+0.9\times 2\times 20\\\Rightarrow v=36\ m/s

Acceleration will be taken as positive because the object is going down. Hence, the sign changes. 2 is multiplied because the expression is given in the form of s=ut+\frac{1}{2}at^2

e) The velocity with which the object strikes the ground will be 36 m/s

f) The speed will increase when the object has gone up and for 20 seconds and falls down for 20 seconds. The object speed will increase when it is coming down from its highest height.

The greatest speed recorded by a baseball thrown by a pitcher was 162.3 km / h, obtained by Nolan Ryan in 1974. If the ball leav
Pepsi [2]

Answer:

0.96 m

Explanation:

First, convert km/h to m/s.

162.3 km/h × (1000 m/km) × (1 hr / 3600 s) = 45.08 m/s

Now find the time it takes to move 20 m horizontally.

Δx = v₀ t + ½ at²

20 m = (45.08 m/s) t + ½ (0 m/s²) t²

t = 0.4436 s

Finally, find how far the ball falls in that time.

Δy = v₀ t + ½ at²

Δy = (0 m/s) (0.4436 s) + ½ (-9.8 m/s²) (0.4436 s)²

Δy = -0.96 m

The ball will have fallen 0.96 meters.

How much energy is needed to raise a 50kg block up from the ground to a height of 5 meters?​
miss Akunina [59]

Answer:

The answer to your question is    Pe = 2452.5 J

Explanation:

Data

mass = 50 kg

height = 5 m

gravity = 9.81 m/s²

Process

The energy of this process is Potential energy which is proportional to the mass of the body, the gravity and the height of the body.

           Pe = mgh

Substitution

           Pe = (50)(5)(9.81)

Simplification

           Pe = 2452.5 J

The period of a satellite circling planet Nutron is observed to be 84 s when it is in a circular orbit with a radius of 8.0 x 10
antoniya [11.8K]

Answer:

4.3 * 10^28 kg

Explanation:

Given:

Period, T = 84s

Radius of satellite orbit, r = 8*10^6

Using the relation :

M = 4π²r³ / GT²

Where G = Gravitational constant, 6.67 * 10^-11

M = 4*π^2*(8*10^6)^3 / 6.67 * 10^-11 * 84^2

M = (20218.191872 * 10^18) / 47063.52 * 10^-11

M = 0.4295937 * 10^18 - (-11)

M = 0.4295937 * 10^29

M = 4.295937 * 10^28 kg

M = 4.3 * 10^28 kg

Mass of planet Nutron = 4.3 * 10^28 kg
