What is friction and how does it affect objects in motion?

2 answers:

Friction is an important force because it is a force that affects motion. This force exerted by the surface of an object when another object moves against it is the result of molecular attractions between the objects' surfaces, and works in the direction opposite to the direction of the motion. hope this helps you.

Friction is a force. A resistance force that tries to slow down and stop objects in motion. The difference between friction and air resistance is that friction acts on surfaces. For example, if I were skateboarding on a rough surface, more friction would occur so I would travel slower. If I were skareboarding on ice, I would go faster because there is much less friction to slow me down. Hope that helps:)

An 8.00- W resistor is dissipating 100 watts. What are the current through it and the difference of potential across it?

hjlf

Answer:

I= 3.5 amps

Explanation:

Step one:

given data

rating of resistor R= 8 ohms

power P= 100W

Required

The current I

Step two

Yet this power is also given by

$P = I^2R$

make I subject of the formula we have

$I= \sqrt{\frac{P}{R} }$

substitute

$I= \sqrt{\frac{100}{8} }\\\\I=\sqrt{12.5}\\\\I= 3.5 amps$

A planet has a surface temperature of 95.0 K and an atmospheric pressure of 1.60 atm. If 4.87 L of atmosphere has a mass of 28.6

mr Goodwill [35]

Answer:

M=28.88 gm/mol

Explanation:

Given that

T= 95 K

P= 1.6 atm

V= 4.87 L

m = 28.6 g

R=0.08206L atm .mol .K

We know that gas equation for ideal gas

P V = n R T

P=Pressure , V=Volume ,n=Moles,T= Temperature ,R=gas constant

Now by putting the values

P V = n R T

1.6 x 4.87 = n x 0.08206 x 95

n=0.99 moles

We know that number of moles given as

$n=\dfrac{m}{M}$

M=Molar mass

$n=\dfrac{m}{M}$

$0.99=\dfrac{28.6}{M}$

M=28.88 gm/mol

If two objects move farther apart from one another, the force of gravity will

jonny [76]

Gravity is universal. This force of gravitational attraction is directly dependent upon the masses of both objects and inversely proportional to the square of the distance that separates their centers. This means that as you move away from an object the gravitational force decreases.
