Why do you need friction to walk?

Physics

Answer:

The force of friction is a necessary force which helps us to walk on ground. The friction is generated between the shoes and the road. We press the ground and as a reaction the ground pushes us forward. The force of friction between sole and ground provides the necessary grip which pushes us forward

Friction can be a useful force because it prevents our shoes slipping on the pavement when we walk and stops car tyres skidding on the road. When you walk, friction is caused between the tread on shoes and the ground. This friction acts to grip the ground and prevent sliding. Sometimes we want to reduce friction.

A spherical gas-storage tank with an inside diameter of 8.0 m is being constructed to store gas under an internal pressure of 1.
Mariulka [41]

Answer:

The minimum wall thickness Tmin required for the spherical tank is 65.90mm

Explanation:

Solution

Recall that,

Tmin = The minimum wall thickness =PD/2бp

where D = diameter of 8.0 m

Internal pressure = 1.62 MPa

Then

The yield strength = 295MPa/3.0 = 98.33

thus,

PD/2бp = 1.62 * 8000/ 2 *98.33

= 12960/196.66 = 65.90

Therefore the wall thickness Tmin required for the spherical tank is 65.90mm

From the center of the Earth to the moon, what should the orbital radius of such satellite be in order to stay over the same poi
yulyashka [42]

In order to have a period that matches the Earth's rotation, a satellite must be in a circular orbit, and 42,164 km from the center of the Earth.

But that's not quite enough to make sure that it always stays over the same point on the Earth's surface (and appears motionless in the sky). For that to happen, the satellite's orbit has to be directly over the Equator.

The Moon has nothing to do with any of this.

Answer:

Waxing crescent to Waxing gibbous

Explanation:

As the Moon goes around Earth and Earth goes around the Sun, the Moon shows us different phases throughout this journey. Also because of peculiar revolution period around the Earth the rise and set time of Moon changes daily. New Moon rises with the Sun rise and sets with Sun set. Waxing half rises in the mid of the day and sets at midnight. Full Moon rises after sunset and sets at sunrise.

The suitable phases will be from waxing crescent to waxing gibbous. The phase of the Moon, 3 days before the full Moon can be selected as the Moon will set by around 2.5 hours before the Sun rise.

If a penny is dropped from rest from a tower takes 2 seconds to hit the ground, how far did it travel?
zaharov [31]

Answer:

B

Explanation:

t = 2s

u = 0m/s (released from rest)

a = +g = 9.8m/s²

s = H = ?

using,

s = ut + 1/2at²

H = 0(2) + 1/2(9.8)(2²)

H = 0 + 9.8(2)

s = H = 19.6m
