Do frictional forces act in the same direction or in the opposite direction to the applied force?

Physics

Evgesh-ka [11]3 years ago
3 0

Frictional forces act in the direction opposite to the MOTION. That direction could be the same OR opposite to applied force.

-- If you push a loaded heavy wagon from behind, trying to get it going faster, friction is acting against you, opposite to your force.

-- If you push a loaded rolling heavy wagon from in front, trying to make it slow down, friction is acting with you, in the same direction as your force.

-- Opposite to the motion both times.

Two pipes move the same amount of ideal fluid in the same amount of time. One pipe has a 2 in. diameter; the other has a 3 in. d
KATRIN_1 [288]

Answer:

a) 3-in. pipe

Explanation:

Given that

Fluid flow is in same amount in the same time it means that volume flow rate is same for the pipes

Volume flow rate

Q = A V

A=Area ,V=Velocity

A=\dfrac{\pi}{4}d^2

If diameter d is more then the velocity will be less for same volume flow rate .We also Know that if pressure is more then the velocity will be less.

The second pipe 3 in diameter having more diameter then the velocity will be less but the pressure will be more.

That is why the 3 in diameter is having more pressure than 2 in diameter pipe.

Therefore the answer will be a.

a) 3-in diameter  pipe

Each driver has mass 79.0 kg. Including the masses of the drivers, the total masses of the vehicles are 800 kg for the car and 4
Mademuasel [1]

Answer:

Force exerted on the car driver by the seatbelt = 8139.4 N = 8.14 kN

Force exerted on the truck driver by the seatbelt = 1628.2 N = 1.63 kN

It is evident that the driver of the smaller vehicle has it worse. The car driver is in way more danger in this perfectly inelastic head-on collision with a bigger vehicle (the truck).

Explanation:

First of, we calculate the velocity of the vehicles after collision using the law of conservation of Momentum

Momentum before collision = Momentum after collision

Since the collision of the two vehicles was described as a head-on collision, for the sake of consistent convention, we will take the direction of the velocity of the bigger vehicle (the truck) as the positive direction and the direction of the car's velocity automatically is the negative direction.

Velocity of the truck before collision = 6.80 m/s

Velocity of the car before collision = -6.80 m/s

Let the velocity of the inelastic unit of vehicles after collision be v

Momentum before collision = (4000)(6.80) + (800)(-6.80) = 27200 - 5440 = 21,760 kgm/s

Momentum after collision = (4000 + 800)(v) = (4800v) kgm/s

Momentum before collision = Momentum after collision

21760 = 4800v

v = (21760/4800)

v = 4.533 m/s (in the direction of the big vehicle (the truck)

So, we then apply Newton's second law of motion which explains that the magnitude change in momentum is equal to the magnitude of impulse.

|Impulse| = |Change in momentum|

But Impulse = (Force exerted on each driver by the seatbelt) × (collision time) = (F×t)

Change in momentum = (Momentum after collision) - (Momentum before collision)

So, for the driver of the truck

Initial velocity = 6.80 m/s (the driver moves with the velocity of the truck)

Final velocity = 4.533 m/s

Change in momentum of the truck driver = (79)(6.80) - (79)(4.533) = 179.1 kgm/s

(F×t) = 179.1

F × 0.110 = 179.1

F = (179.1/0.11)

F = 1628.2 N = 1.63 kN

So, for the driver of the car

Initial velocity = -6.80 m/s (the driver moves with the velocity of the car)

Final velocity = 4.533 m/s

Change in momentum of the car driver = (79)(-6.80) - (79)(4.533) = -895.3 kgm/s

(F×t) = |-895.3|

F × 0.110 = 895.3

F = (895.3/0.11)

F = 8139.4 N = 8.14 kN

Hope this Helps!!!
