Answer:

Normal Force is usually perpendicular to the movement and static friction usually means that there is no movement.

Explanation:

The work donde by any force on an object is equal to the displacement of the object multiplied by the component of the force that is in the direction of the displacement.

Normal force is usually perpendicular to the movement, so there is no component in the direction of the displacement. This is why it is zero in most circumstances.

<em>Static</em> friction on the other hand, usually means that there is no movement at all (it's static). It means that there is no displacement between the object and ground (in most cases). If there is no displacement, there is no work.

How liquid state is change into solid state?

FrozenT [24]

Answer:

The change from the liquid state to the solid state is called freezing. As the liquid cools, it loses thermal energy. ... For example, solid water melts at 0°C and liquid water freezes at 0°C. During freezing, the temperature of a substance remains constant while the particles in the liquid form a crystalline solid.

Please help me on this position-time graph assignment!!!

saw5 [17]

$\text{Hello there! :)}$

$\text{The velocity is essentially the slope of the graph in a position vs. time graph, so:}$

$\text{Given: From 0 - 8 sec, velocity of 10 m/s.}\\\\\text{From 8 - 18 sec, velocity of -5 m/s. (In opposite direction because of the negative sign)}\\\\\\\text{From 18 - 22 sec, velocity of 0 m/s. (Object at rest)}\\\\\text{From 22 - 24 sec, velocity of 5 m/s.}\\\\\text{Graph the position vs. time graph using the velocities as the slope of the line }$

An object floats in water with 5 8 of its volume submerged. The ratio of the density of the object to that of water is

ki77a [65]

Answer:

$\dfrac{5}{8}$

Explanation:

m = Mass of object = $\rho v$

m' = Mass of water = $\rho' v'$

$\rho$ = Density of object

$\rho'$ = Density of water

Weight of the water displaced is the force in the case of floating objects

According to the question

$v'=\dfrac{5}{8}v$

In the case of floating objects

$W=W'\\\Rightarrow mg=m'g\\\Rightarrow \rho vg=\rho'v'g\\\Rightarrow \rho v=\rho' \dfrac{5}{8}vg\\\Rightarrow \rho=\rho' \dfrac{5}{8}\\\Rightarrow \dfrac{\rho}{\rho'}=\dfrac{5}{8}$

The ratio of the density of the object to that of water is $\dfrac{5}{8}$
