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.

What acceleration results from exerting a 125N force on a 0.65kg ball?
labwork [276]
first you do your pyramid f is on top and ma is
on bottom were m=mass and a=acceleration
were in this case you do f÷m=force÷mass so again in this case 125÷0.65=192.3 to be more accurate 192.3076923077

Calculate the sample standard deviation and sample variance for the following frequency distribution of hourly wages for a sampl
ollegr [7]
<h2>Answer:</h2>

(a) standard deviation = σ = 4.9996

(b) variance = σ² = 24.996

<h2>Explanation:</h2><h2 />

<em>Given frequency table (find attached as Table 1);</em>

<u></u>

(a) To find the sample standard deviation and sample variance, follow these steps;

<em>i. Calculate the mid-point c for each group by using the mid-point formula;</em>

c = (lower bound + upper bound) / 2

=> c = (6.51 + 8.50) / 2 = 7.505

=> c = (8.51 + 10.50) / 2 = 9.505

=> c = (10.51 + 12.50) / 2 = 11.505

=> c = (12.51 + 14.50) / 2 = 13.505

=> c = (14.51 + 16.50) / 2 = 15.505

<em>So the new table becomes (find attached as Table 2);</em>

<em>ii. Calculate the total number of samples (n) which is the sum of all the frequencies.</em>

n = 50+18+42+20+46

n = 176

<em>iii. Calculate the mean (M)</em>

This is done by first multiplying the midpoints by the corresponding frequencies and then dividing the result by the total number of samples (n).

M = [(7.505 x 50) + (9.505 x 18) + (11.505 x 42) + (13.505 x 20) + (15.505 x 46)] / 176

M = [375.25 + 171.09 + 483.21 + 270.1 + 713.23] / 176

M = [2012.88] / 176

M = 11.44

<em>iv. Find the variance (σ²);</em>

The variance is calculated using the following formula

σ² = [Σ(f x c²) - (n x M²)] / (n - 1)                ------------(i)

Where;

f = frequency of each boundary data point

<em>=>  Let's first calculate </em>Σ(f x c²).

This is done by finding the sum of the product of the frequency (f) of each boundary point and the square of their corresponding mid-points(c)

Σ(f x c²) = [(50 x 7.505²) + (18 x 9.505²) + (42 x 11.505²) + (20 x 13.505²) + (46 x 15.505²)]

Σ(f x c²) = [(2816.25125) + (1626.21045) + (5559.33105) + (3647.7005) + (11058.63115)]

Σ(f x c²) = 24708.1244

<em>=> Now calculate (n x M²)</em>

n x M² = 176 x 11.44²

n x M² = 23033.7536

<em>=> Now substitute these values into equation (i) to calculate the variance</em>

σ² = [Σ(f x c²) - (n x M²)] / (n - 1)

σ² = [24708.1244 - 23033.7536] / (176 - 1)

σ² = [4374.3708] / (175)

σ² = 24.996

Therefore, the variance is 24.996

<em>v. Find the standard deviation (σ)</em>

The standard deviation is the square root of the variance. i.e

σ = √σ²

σ = √24.996

σ = 4.9996

Therefore, the standard deviation is 4.9996

Explain why a ball thrown in space could keep moving forever, while a ball thrown here on Earth will come to a stop.
Dmitriy789 [7]

Answer:

In space there is no air resistance. on earth there is

in space there is no opposite forces acting on stopping the ball, so if you throw it it will go on forever.

on earth there is air resistance and gravity, this will pull the ball towards the ground and slow it down.
