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

Physics
1 answer:
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.

The motor in a refrigerator has a power output of 294 W. If the freezing compartment is at 271 K and the outside air is at 310 K
dusya [7]

Answer:

Maximum amount of heat = 10002151.38J

Explanation:

Workdone by motor in 86.1 minutes I given by:

W = power × time

W= 294 × 86.1×60

W= 1439424 Joules

W= 1.4 ×10^6Joules

The amount of heat extracted is given by:

/QL /= K/W/ = TL/W/ /(TH - TL)

Where TL= freezing compartment temperature

TH = Outside air temperature

/QL /= 271 × 1439424 / (310 - 271)

/QL/ = 390083904/39

/QL/ = 10002151.38 Joules

A motorcycle has a mass of 2.50×10^2. A constant force is exerted on it for 60.0s. The motorcycles initial velocity is 6.00 m/s
Margarita [4]

The change in momentum is 5500 kg m/s

Explanation:

The change in momentum of an object is given by

\Delta p = m(v-u)

where

m is the mass of the object

v is the final velocity

u is the initial velocity

In this problem, we have:

m=2.50\cdot 10^2 kg (mass of the motorcycle)

v=28.0 m/s (final velocity)

u=6.0 m/s (initial velocity)

Therefore, the change in momentum is

\Delta p=(2.50\cdot 10^2)(28.0-6.0)=5500 kg m/s

How do vafiations in electronegativity result in the unequal sharign of electrons in polar molecuels?
nirvana33 [79]

Answer and Explanation:

Polar molecules are formed as a result of unequal sharing of electrons by the atoms in the molecule which creates polarization like that in water molecule.

If the electrons are shared equally by the atoms in the molecule then there won't be any polarization of the molecule and the molecule is non polar.

Electro-negativity is that property of an atom which lets it attract negative charges, i.e., electrons. The more the electro-negativity of an atom in the molecule the more are the chances of its polarization.

Explain melting and freezing using the kinetic theory of matter​
Alexxx [7]

As a liquid is cooled its molecules lose kinetic energy and their motion slows. When they've slowed to where intermolecular attractive forces exceed the collisional forces from random motion, then a phase transition from liquid to solid state takes place and the material freezes
