Describe how the size of the force of friction depends on the size of the normal force?

Physics
1 answer:
Hoochie [10]3 years ago
7 0

Answer:

mark brainliest

Explanation:

When a greater normal force is exerted, the actual contact area increases, and it is found that the friction is proportional to this area. Two rough surfaces in contact have a much smaller area of actual contact than their total area.

A speedboat increases its speed from 14.5 m/s to 29.3 m/s in a distance of 172 m.
dalvyx [7]

Answer:

a. Acceleration, a = 1.88 m/s²

b. Time, t = 7.87 seconds.

Explanation:

Given the following data;

Initial velocity, U = 14.5m/s

Final velocity, V = 29.3m/s

Distance, S = 172m

a. To find the acceleration of the speedboat;

We would use the third equation of motion;

V² = U² + 2aS

Substituting into the formula

29.3² = 14.5² + 2a*172

858.49 = 210.25 + 344a

344a = 858.49 - 210.25

344a = 648.24

a = 648.24/344

Acceleration, a = 1.88 m/s²

b. To find the time;

We would use the first equation of motion;

V = U + at

29.3 = 14.5 + 1.88t

1.88t = 29.3 - 14.5

1.88t = 14.8

Time, t = 14.8/1.88

Time, t = 7.87 seconds.

A proton moving with a velocity of 4.0 × 104 m/s enters a magnetic field of 0.20 t. if the angle between the velocity of the pro
svlad2 [7]

Answer:

Magnitude of the force on proton = F = 1.1085 × 10^-15 N

Explanation:

Charge on proton = q = 1.60 × 10^-19 C

Velocity of proton = V = 4.0 × 10^4 m/s

Magnetic field = B = 0.20 T  

Angle between V and B = θ = 60

We know that,  

F = qVBsin θ = (1.60 × 10^-19)( 4.0 × 10^4)( 0.20)sin(60)

F = 1.1085 × 10^-15 N

A pendulum is hanging from a tower. The pendulum almost touches the ground and has a period of 18.0 s. What is the height of the
nadya68 [22]
We apply the following equation

T = 2π * sqrt (L/g)

Where g is the gravity = 9.8 m/s^2

L is the longitude of the pendulum (Height of the tower)

T is the period. (T = 18s)

We find L.............> (T /2π)^2 = L/g

L = g*(T /2π)^2...........> L = 80.428 meters
