How does a smoother surface affect braking distance

Physics
1 answer:
WARRIOR [948]3 years ago

Friction has to do with this.  If you have a smoother surface than another surface, the smoother surface will contain less friction.  Friction is an opposing force against a moving object.  If there is less opposing force towards a moving object, there is less friction.  If you have a smooth road, cars won't break as fast as they would break on bumpy roads, because bumpy roads have more bumps, creating more friction.  I hope that helped.  :D

Sidana [21]

Answer:

Independent, dependent, resistance

Explanation:

An independent variable is the one which is varied to test changes in the dependent variable. In the given experiment, voltage is an independent variable is which is being varied and it's effect on current (dependent variable) is being tested. Resistance being held constant.

According to Ohm's Law, current is proportional to voltage.

V = I R

R is resistance

Oliga [24]

Answer:

0.68 m

Explanation:

We know that the speed of sound in air is a product of frequency and wavelength. Taking speed of sound in air as 340 m/s

V=frequency*wavelength

Then wavelength is given by 350/500=0.68 m

Therefore, to repeat constructive interference at the listener's ear, a distance of 0.68 m is needed

if the bar and block are too heavy, one of the strings may break. assuming that the two strings are identical, which one will br
DerKrebs [107]

The string that will break first depends on the weight of the block or bar subjected to such string.

According to Hook's law, the force applied to an elastic material is directly proportional to the extension of the material.

F= kx

where;

  • <em>F is the force applied to the object = weight of the object</em>

For given two identical strings, the string that will break first depends on the mass of the bar and the block.

  • If the bar is heavier than the block, then the string subjected to the bar will break first.
  • On the other hand, if the block is heavier than the bar, then the string subjected to the block will break first.

Thus, the string that will break first depends on the weight of the block or bar subjected to such string.

OverLord2011 [107]
That will depend on the coefficient of friction between the sliding surfaces, and also on Zak's weight. We don't have any of that information.
