Why do clothes often cling together after tumbling in a clothes dryer?

Physics
1 answer:
nadya68 [22]3 years ago
8 0

Answer:

Explained

Explanation:

The electrons get rubbed off some items onto others. This causes an excess or electron on one item and deficiency of electron on the other. Therefore an electrostatic force of attraction is produced and hence clothes often cling together after tumbling in a clothes dryer

timama [110]

Answer:

Having a bigger angle above the horizontal

Explanation:

Applying the energy conservation theorem:

K_1+U_1+W_{ext}=K_2+U_2

The kinetic energy is reduced because of the work done by the friction force.

The friction force is given by:

F_f=F_N*\µ

so the friction force depends on the Normal force, because the slide has an angle the normal force is given by:

F_N=m.g*cos(\theta)

So when the angle of the slide is bigger, the friction force decreases, for example:

for 45 degrees:

F_N=m.g*cos(45)\\F_N=0.70(m.g)\\

for 75 degrees:

F_N=m.g*cos(75)\\F_N=0.26(m.g)\\

as you can see if the angle is bigger above the horizontal, the friction force is reduced and so the work done by that force. We didn't have to change the height of the slide, so the potential gravitational energy remains the same.

Find the sum of the vectors:11 km N ,11km E
vladimir1956 [14]

The resultant vector is 11√2 km due north east.

<h3><u>Explanation:</u></h3>

The vector is a type of quantity which has both magnitude and direction. This quantities when expressed needs to specify both magnitude and direction.

We need to calculate the magnitude and direction separately.

Here firstly for the magnitude,

The magnitudes are both 11 km and they are at right angles to each other.

So, the resultant magnitude = √(11² +11²) km

=11√2 km

Now for the direction, one vector is due north and the other is due east.

So the resultant vector is due north east.

So the final vector is 11√2 km due North-East.
