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.

A 2.3 kg block of copper is heated at atmospheric pressure such that its temperature increases from 6 oC to 90 oC. How much heat
Shtirlitz [24]

Answer:

the  heat absorbed by the block of copper is 74368.476J

Explanation:

Hello!

To solve this problem use the first law of thermodynamics that states that the heat applied to a system is the difference between the initial and final energy considering that the mass and the specific heat do not change so we can infer the following equation

Q=mCp(T2-T1)

Where

Q=heat

m=mass=2.3kg

Cp=0.092 kcal/(kg C)=384.93J/kgK

T2=Final temperatura= 90C

T1= initial temperature=6 C

solving

Q=(2.3kg)(384.93\frac{J}{kgC} )(90C-6C)=74368.476J

the  heat absorbed by the block of copper is 74368.476J

A seagull flying horizontally at 8.00m/s carries a clam with a mass of 300g in its beak. Calculate the total mechanical energy o
Stells [14]

Answer:

9.6J+88.2J=97.8J

Explanation:

Here the velocity of the seagull is given,mass is given and its height.

We have to find its mechanical energy my friend.

Mechanical energy=kinetic energy + potential energy.

First we will find kinetic energy.

For calculating kinetic energy we need mass and velocity,which are given here.

So, Ek=

1 \div 2mv {?}^{2}

So by substituting the values we get 9.6J.

Now we find the potential energy which is mgh.

By substituting the values we get 88.2J.

Then we add both of those and get 97.8J

I hope this satisfies you and make sure you contact me if it doesn't

If the period of a spring is 5 seconds what is the frequency
Scilla [17]

Answer:

C. 0.2 Hertz

Explanation:

The frequency of a spring is equal to the reciprocal of the period:

f=\frac{1}{T}

where

f is the frequency

T is the period

For the spring in this problem,

T = 5 s

therefore, the frequency is

f=\frac{1}{5 s}=0.2 Hz

3. A football is kicked with a speed of 35 m/s at an angle of 40°.
jarptica [38.1K]

a) 22.5 m/s

The initial vertical velocity is given by:

u_y = u sin \theta

where

u = 35 m/s is the initial speed

\theta=40^{\circ} is the angle of projection of the ball

Substituting into the equation, we find

u_y = (35)(sin 40)=22.5 m/s

b) 26.8 m/s

The initial horizontal velocity is given by:

u_x = u cos \theta

where

u = 35 m/s is the initial speed

\theta=40^{\circ} is the angle of projection of the ball

Substituting into the equation, we find

u_x = (35)(cos 40)=26.8 m/s

c) 2.30 s

The time it takes for the ball to reach the maximum heigth can be found by considering the vertical motion only. This is a uniformly accelerated motion (free-fall), so we can use the suvat equation

v_y = u_y + at

where

v_y is the vertical velocity at time t

u_y = 22.5 m/s

a=g=-9.8 m/s^2 is the acceleration of gravity (negative because it is downward)

At the maximum height, the vertical velocity becomes zero, v_y =0; substituting, we find the time t at which this happens:

0=u_y + gt\\t=-\frac{u_y}{g}=-\frac{22.5}{-9.8}=2.30 s

d) 25.8 m

The maximum height can also be found by considering the vertical motion only. We can use the following suvat equation:

s=u_y t + \frac{1}{2}gt^2

where

s is the vertical displacement at time t

u_y = 22.5 m/s

g=-9.8 m/s^2

Substituting t = 2.30 s, we find the displacement at maximum height, so the maximum height:

s=(22.5)(2.30)+\frac{1}{2}(-9.8)(2.30)^2=25.8 m

e) 123.3 m

In order to find how far does the ball lands, we have to consider the horizontal motion.

First of all, the time it takes for the ball to go back to the ground is twice the time needed for reaching the maximum height:

t=2(2.30 s)=4.60 s

Then, we consider the horizontal motion. There is no acceleration along this direction, so the horizontal velocity is constant:

v_x = 26.8 m/s

Therefore, the horizontal distance travelled during the whole motion is

d=v_x t = (26.8)(4.60)=123.3 m

So, the ball lands 123.3 m far from the initial point.
