Frictional force

Explanation:

Frictional force is a force that opposes the motion between two surfaces that are in contact with one another.

Frictional force opposes motion and it is directed opposite the direction of motion.

There is also frictional force between liquids too.

  • Enough force must be supplied in order to overcome this frictional force so as to make a body move.
  • In humans, motion wouldn't be possible without the frictional force.

A rope is tied to a box and used to pull the box 2.3 m along a horizontal floor. The rope makes an angle of 30∘ with the horizon
Savatey [412]

Answer:

Answered

Explanation:

A) The work done by gravity is zero because displacement and the gravitational force are perpendicular to each other.

W= FS cosθ

θ= 90 ⇒cos90 = 0 ⇒W= 0

B) work done by tension

W= Tcosθ×S= 5cos30×2.30= 10J

C) Work done by friction force

W= f×s=1×2.30= 2.30 J

D) Work done by normal force is Zero because the displacement and the normal force are perpendicular to each other.

E) The net work done= Work done by tension in the rope - frictional work

=10-2.30= 7.7 J

A tennis player swings her 1000 g racket with a speed of 10 m/s. She hits a 60 g tennis ball that was approaching her at a speed
Mashutka [201]

(a)

consider the motion of the tennis ball. lets assume the velocity of the tennis ball going towards the racket as positive and velocity of tennis ball going away from the racket as negative.

m = mass of the tennis ball = 60 g = 0.060 kg

v₀ = initial velocity of the tennis ball before being hit by racket = 20 m/s

v = final velocity of the tennis ball after being hit by racket = - 39 m/s

ΔP = change in momentum of the ball

change in momentum of the ball is given as

ΔP = m (v - v₀)

inserting the above values

ΔP = (0.060) (- 39 - 20)

ΔP = - 3.54 kgm/s

hence , magnitude of change in momentum : 3.54 kgm/s

Answer:

The sun

Explanation:

In this system the energy of the sun heats the water in the pipe, producing a high pressured steam, which is used for moving a turbine and producing electricity, is a transformation of energy from solar to thermal, then to mechanical to electrical.

A high powered rifle can shoot a bullet at a speed of 1500 mi/hr. On the moon, with almost no atmosphere and an acceleration due
Amiraneli [1.4K]

Answer:

Explanation:

On the Moon :----

1500 x 1.6 = 2400 m /s is initial velocity of bullet .

g = 1.6 m /s²

v = u - gt

0 = 2400 - 1.6 t

t = 1500 s

This is time of ascent

Time of decent will also be the same

Total time of flight = 2 x 1500 = 3000 s

On the Earth : ---

v = u - a₁ t

0 = u - a₁ x 18

u = 18a₁

v² = u² - 2 x a₁ x 2743.2

0 = (18a₁ )² - 2 x a₁ x 2743.2

a₁ = 16.93

For downward return

s = ut + 1/2 a₂ x t²

2743.2 = 0 + .5 x a₂ x 31²

a₂ = 5.7 m /s²

If d be the deceleration produced by air

g + d = 16.93 ( during upward journey )

g - d = 5.7

g = (16.93 + 5.7) / 2  

= 11.315 m / s

d = 5.6 m /s²

So air is creating a deceleration of 5.6 m /s².
