Friction<span> is an important force because it is a force that </span>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<span>. hope this helps you. </span>

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:)

Some of the energy the car gained as it was pulled was lost because of heat from friction. The rest of the energy was transforme
Lisa [10]

Answer:

454,320 joules

Explanation:

The work done on an object is equal to its change in kinetic energy: Change in KE = F × d.

Plug the values for F and d into the formula and solve:

Change in KE = 2,524 × 180

= 454,320 joules

The roller coaster gains 454,320 joules of energy from the work done on it by the chain.

Which compares the thermal energy found in a piece of coal with the thermal energy found in a newly opened coal mine?
9966 [12]

<span>The thermal energy found in a piece of coal is lesser than in the thermal energy in a newly opened coal mine. The newly opened coal mine requires a greater thermal energy to really open it due to its solid structure. Whereas in a piece of coal, it only requires a lesser amount of thermal energy to extract it.</span>
