HELP DUE TONIGHT What is friction? How does friction affect the motion of an object?

Physics
1 answer:
hram777 [196]3 years ago
3 0

Answer:

Friction always acts in the direction opposing motion. This means if friction is present, it counteracts and cancels some of the force causing the motion (if the object is being accelerated).

Explanation:

Friction is the force resisting the relative motion of solid surfaces, fluid layers, and material elements sliding against each other.

(a) Calculate the absolute pressure at the bottom of a freshwater lake at a point whose depth is 30.0 m. Assume the density of t
Law Incorporation [45]

Answer:

(a) The absolute pressure at the bottom of the freshwater lake is 395.3 kPa

(b) The force exerted by the water on the window is 36101.5 N

Explanation:

(a)

The absolute pressure is given by the formula

P = P_{o} + \rho gh

Where P is the absolute pressure

P_{o} is the atmospheric pressure

\rho is the density

g is the acceleration due to gravity (Take g = 9.8 m/s^{2} )

h is the height

From the question

h = 30.0 m

\rho = 1.00 × 10³ kg/m³ = 1000 kg/m³

P_{o} = 101.3 kPa = 101300 Pa

Using the formula

P = P_{o} + \rho gh

P = 101300 + (1000×9.8×30.0)

P = 101300 + 294000

P =395300 Pa

P = 395.3 kPa

Hence, the absolute pressure at the bottom of the freshwater lake is 395.3 kPa

(b)

For the force exerted

From

P = F/A

Where P is the pressure

F is the force

and A is the area

Then, F = P × A

Here, The area will be area of the window of the underwater vehicle.

Diameter of the circular window = 34.1 cm = 0.341 m

From Area = πD²/4

Then, A = π×(0.341)²/4 = 0.0913269 m²

Now,

From F = P × A

F = 395300 × 0.0913269

F = 36101.5 N

Hence, the force exerted by the water on the window is 36101.5 N

Machmer Hall is 400 m North and 180 m West of Witless.
yan [13]

Answer:

The distance from Witless to Machmer is 438.63 m.

Explanation:

Given that,

Machmer Hall is 400 m North and 180 m West of Witless.

We need to calculate the distance

Using Pythagorean theorem

D = \sqrt{(d_{m})^2+(d_{w})^2}

Where, d_{m} =distance of Machmer Hall

d_{w} =distance of Witless

Put the value into the formula

D = \sqrt{(400)^2+(180)^2}

D=438.63\ m

Hence, The distance from Witless to Machmer is 438.63 m.
