It would be a really bad idea to eat the snow because you obviously are trying to stay warm right? Well, the best thing to do is melt the snow. However, the process of melting the snow would have a few complications as well. But yes, the latter idea (drinking the snow) is a better idea (not the best).

Define friction State the law of frictionGive two factors that may affect friction
umka21 [38]

Friction:

Friction is the resistive force that acts on the body in a direction opposite to the direction of motion of the same object.

Laws of friction:

1. The frictional force acting on the object is proportional to the normal force acting on the object.

For example, if the object of mass m is moving along the horizontal surface, the normal force acting on the object is mg.

Thus, the frictional force acting on the object is,

\begin{gathered} F_r\propto F_N \\ F_r=\mu F_N \end{gathered}

where F_N is the normal force acting on the object,

\mu\text{ is the coefficient of friction}

The diagrammatic representation of the frictional force acting on the object is,

2. The frictional force acting on the object depends upon the nature of the surface in contact with the object.

3. The frictional force does not depend upon the area of contact of an object with the surface.

4. The kinetic friction acting on the object is independent of the velocity of the object.

5. The coefficient of static friction is more than the coefficient of kinetic friction.

Two factors on which the frictional force depends are:

1. The frictional force depends on the adhesion between the two bodies in contact.

2. The frictional force acting on the depends upon the roughness of the surface on which the object is moving.

The term "exfoliation dome" is best applied to ________. the term "exfoliation dome" is best applied to ________. bryce national
BlackZzzverrR [31]
An exfoliation dome is a geological structure wherein it is primarily when the overburden of a surface gets removed by erosion, thus leading to rock relaxation. In addition, the term would be best applied to the national landmark of Yosemite National Park wherein the place has one of the best waterfalls in California.

A certain first-order reaction is 58% complete in 95 s. What are the values of the rate constant and the half-life for this proc
guajiro [1.7K]

Answer:

0.005734 s^{-1} and 20.86 seconds are the values of the rate constant and the half-life for this process respectively..

Explanation:

Expression for rate law for first order kinetics is given by:

a_o=a\times e^{-kt}

where,

k = rate constant  

t = age of sample

a_o = let initial amount of the reactant  

a = amount left after decay process  

We have :

a_o=x

a=58\%\times x=0.58x

t = 95 s

0.58x=x\times e^{-k\times 95 s}

\k= 0.005734 s^{-1}

Half life is given by for first order kinetics::

t_{1/2}=\frac{0.693}{k}

=\frac{0.693}{0.005734 s^{-1}}=120.86 s

0.005734 s^{-1} and 20.86 seconds are the values of the rate constant and the half-life for this process respectively..
