How do you think the mass of an object affects how much friction get exerted on the object by a rough surface?

Physics

Shkiper50 [21]3 years ago
7 0

Explanation:

Friction can't affect mass of a substance(considering for a substance whose mass doesn't change with time),rather it is the mass of an object which can affect friction variously. Let's take some example to understand the situation. So,higher the mass of the object,higher will be the frictional force.

Friction occurs because no surface is perfectly smooth. Rougher surfaces have more friction between them. Heavier objects also have more friction because they press together with greater force. Friction produces heat because it causes the molecules on rubbing surfaces to move faster and have more energy.

(1) <span>Electric current is defined as the rate of </span>charge<span> flow past a given point in an electric circuit. It is measured in Coulombs/second, also called Amperes. In </span>DC electric circuits<span>, it can be assumed that the </span>resistance<span> to current flow is a constant so that the current in the circuit is related to </span>voltage<span> and resistance by </span>Ohm's law, which is:
<span>
V = I*R
Where V = Voltage
I = Current
R = Resistance

(2) The answer is attached in image form down below(please find attachment)

(4) <span>Renewable energy is the energy which is generated from the natural sources i.e. sun, tides, wind etc. Examples are: Solar Energy, Wind energy( windmill) etc. for electricity generation.
Advantages of Renewable Energy:
1) It is available in abundant quantity.
2) It is free to use.
3) It has </span><span>low carbon emissions, therefore it is considered as green and environment friendly.
Disadvantages of Renewable Energy:
1) It is not easy to setup plants and machinery for renewable energy.
2) Initial costs for setting up those plants and machinery is quite high.
3) The energy from the natural sources is not available 24/7. In Solar energy case, energy </span><span>can be used during the day time and not during night or rainy season etc.
</span>
Non-Renewable energy is energy which is taken from the sources that are available on the earth in limited quantity. Sources may be <span>fossil fuels, natural gas, oil and coal etc.
</span><span>Advantages of Non-Renewable Energy Sources:
1) They are easy to use.
2) They are cheap.

Disadvantages:
</span>1) They will expire some day (as they are limited).
2) The speed at which such resources are being used can have serious environmental changes.
3) They release toxic gases in the air when burnt which are the major cause for global warming.
<span>4) Since these sources are going to expire soon, prices of these sources are proliferating day by day.
</span><span>
Now you should judge all by yourself which is the better energy source.

A child walks due east on the deck of a ship at 2 miles per hour. the ship is moving north at a speed of 18 miles per hour. find
garik1379 [7]
Refer to the figure shown below.

The velocity of the child and the velocity of the ship should be added vectorially to find the speed and direction of the child relative to the water surface.

The magnitude of the child's velocity is
v = √(2² + 18²) = 18.11 mph

The direction of the child's speed is
θ = tan⁻¹ (18/2) = tan⁻¹ 9 = 83.7° north of east or counterclockwise from the eastern direction.

Answer:
The magnitude is 18.1 mph.
The direction is 84° north of east.

Whats the answer???????????
Leviafan [203]

Answer: Less than 4 ohms

Explanation:

We have three resistors with the following resistance:

R_{1}=4\Omega

R_{2}=6\Omega

R_{3}=8\Omega

Now, when the resistors are connected in parallel, the total resistance R is calculated as follows:

\frac{1}{R}=\frac{1}{R_{1}}+\frac{1}{R_{2}}+\frac{1}{R_{3}}

Isolating R:

R=\frac{R_{1}R_{2}R_{3}}{R_{3}(R_{1}+R_{2})+R_{1}R_{2}}

Rewriting with th known values:

R=\frac{(4\Omega)(6\Omega)(8\Omega)}{8\Omega(4\Omega+6\Omega)+(4\Omega)(6\Omega)}

Finally:

R=1.84 \Omega

Hence, the correct option is less than 4 ohms.
