Some of these frictions depend on the Pressure, temperature of atmosphere.

Static Friction: This is the  friction force when two objects in contact  are not moving relative to each other. This friction is higher than kinetic friction.

Kinetic or Dynamic friction: this the friction force opposing the motion of objects, when two objects in contact are in motion relative to each other.  It is less than the static friction. The two surfaces are rubbing against each other as they move.

Rolling friction:  This is the friction when two objects are in contact and one object is rolling over the other - like a wheel on a road. The point of contact appears as stationary. The rolling friction is very less compared to static friction & dynamic friction.

Lubricated friction: this is the friction between two solid surfaces in contact with a layer of lubricant fluid flowing in between them. This friction is the least.

Fluid friction - viscosity :  this is friction between two adjacent layers that are moving relative to each other at different speeds in a fluid.  This is not high.

Internal friction: when an object is compressed and forced to deform, like in a piece of rubber, there is friction between the layers, that opposes this deformation.

Skin friction is the friction that opposes movement of a fluid across a solid surface.  This is also called drag.  When a coin is dropped in water, there is a friction called drag on the coin. Same is the case when a ball is thrown, a drag is experienced by the ball due to the drag of air.

A proton with kinetic energy of 1.16×105 eV is fired perpendicular to the face of a large plate that has a uniform charge densit
Nezavi [6.7K]

Answer:

force on the proton = 5.96 × 10^{-14} N

Explanation:

given data

kinetic energy = 1.16 ×10^{5}  eV

charge density of σ = +6.60 μC/m²

solution

we get here force on the proton that is express as

F = qE  ....................1

here q is charge on proton i.e = 1.6 × 10^{-19} C

and E is electric field due to charge i.e E = \frac{\sigma }{2*\epsilon_o }

so put the value in equation 1 we get

force on the proton = 1.6 × 10^{-19} × \frac{6.60*10^{-6}}{2*8.85*10^{-12}}  

force on the proton = 5.96 × 10^{-14} N

Voices of swimmers at a pool travel 400 m/s through the air and 1,600 m/s underwater. The wavelength changes from 2 m in the air
Nata [24]

The frequency of a sound is whatever frequency leaves the source. It doesn't change.

Voiced of swimmers at the pool don't change frequency in or out of the water. Only their speed and wavelength change.

Explain how you think global winds can impact weather in an area.
weeeeeb [17]

Answer:

As the wind travels across the earth, air masses and global winds do not travel in straight lines. in the Northern hemisphere air veers to the right and in southern hemisphere to the left. this motion can result in large circulating weather systems, as air blows away from or into a high or low pressure areas.

on earth the main differences in air pressure are caused by differences in temperatures. cool air produces high air pressure and warm  air produces low air pressure.

PHYSICS<br> I need help with number two!!!!
EleoNora [17]

Answer:

mgh₁ + ½mv₁² = mgh₂ + ½mv₂²

Explanation:

Initial total energy = final total energy

PE₁ + KE₁ = PE₂ + KE₂

mgh₁ + ½mv₁² = mgh₂ + ½mv₂²
