Answer

Greater than.

Static friction is the force that opposes motion between two objects that are not in motion. For the object to move one have to overcome the static friction. This force is usually greater than the force that exist between two surfaces that are in relative motion. This force is called kinetic friction.

For this reason the coefficient of static friction is greater that coefficient of kinetic friction.

The unit used to measure electric current is the ampere (A). Now, assume that the current delivered at a wall socket reaches the

pav-90 [236]

Answer:

T = 0.017s

Explanation:

period is the time it takes a particle to make one oscillation

An electric current is periodic in nature

The current reaches 3.8A ten times.

So there must have been 10 cycles (10 periods) in 0.17s. let 'T' be the period:

$T=\frac{t}{n}$

t is the total time interval

n is the number of oscillations

$T=\frac{0.17}{10}$

10T = 0.17

T = 0.17/10 = 0.017s

The atmospheric pressure on a mountain is 550 mmHg and 1 atm is equal to 760 mmHg. What is the pressure in atm? Give your answer

Svetradugi [14.3K]

Answer:

0.72 atm

Explanation:

Given that the atmospheric pressure on a mountain is 550 mmHg.

Where 1 atm is equal to 760 mmHg.

To Convert millimetre mercury (mmHg) into atmospheric pressure units (atm) , divide the magnitude of pressure by 760. That is,

Pressure = 550/760

Pressure = 0.724 atm

Therefore, pressure in atm is 0.72 atm in two significant figures
