The strength of the force of friction depends on which two factors?
Stolb23 [73]

Options A and D are correct. The strength of the force of friction depends on the objects' sizes and weights and the heat generated by the friction and the types of surfaces involved.

<h3 /><h3>What is the friction force?</h3>

It is a type of opposition force acting on the surface of the body that tries to oppose the motion of the body. its unit is Newton (N).

Mathematically, it is defined as the product of the coefficient of friction and normal reaction.

On resolving the given force and acceleration in the different components and balancing the equation gets. Components in the x-direction.

The strength of the force of friction depends on the two factors, as;

A. The objects' sizes and weights.

D. The heat generated by the friction and the types of surfaces involved.

Hence, options A and D are correct.

A vertical spring stretches 4.0 cm when a 12-g object is hung from it. The object is replaced with a block of mass 28 g that osc
marin [14]

Answer:

Time period of the osculation will be 0.0671 sec  

Explanation:

It is given a vertical spring is stretched by 4 cm

So change in length of the spring x = 4 cm = 0.04 m

Mass which is hung from it m = 12 gram = 0.012 kg

Sprig force will be equal to weight of the mass

So kx=mg

k\times 0.04=0.012\times 9.8

k = 244.7 N/m

Now new mass is m = 28 gram = 0.028 kg

So time period with new mass will be

T=2\pi \sqrt{\frac{m}{k}}

=2\times 3.14 \sqrt{\frac{0.028}{244.7}}=0.0671sec

At a particular instant, a proton at the origin has velocity &lt; 5e4, -2e4, 0&gt; m/s. You need to calculate the magnetic field
vesna_86 [32]

Answer:

9.7\times 10^{-5} T

Explanation:

Velocity =5\times 10^4i-2\times 10^4j

r=0.03i+0.05j

r=\mid r\mid=\sqrt{(0.03)^2+(0.05)^2}=0.058

v=\mid V\mid=\sqrt{(5\times 10^4)^2+(-2\times 10^{4})^2}=5.39\times 10^{2}

We know that

B=\frac{mv}{qr}

Where q=1.6\times 10^{-19} C

Mass of proton=1.67\times 10^{-27} kg

Using the formula

B=\frac{1.67\times 10^{-27}\times 5.39\times 10^2}{1.6\times 10^{-19}\times 0.058}

B=9.7\times 10^{-5} T

A bungee jumper jumps off a bridge and bounces up and down several times.
Stella [2.4K]

The energy that was lost due to air resistance while she was bouncing is determined as 3,360 J.

<h3>Conservation of energy</h3>

The amount of energy lost due to  air resistance while she was bouncing is determined from the principle of conservation of energy.

ΔE = P.E - Ux

ΔE = mgh - ¹/₂kx²

ΔE = (50)(9.8)(16) - ¹/₂(35)(16)²

ΔE = 3,360 J

Thus, the energy that was lost due to air resistance while she was bouncing is determined as 3,360 J.
