Method of decreasing friction:By polishing: Friction between two surfaces can be reduced by polishing them. The interlocking and projections are minimized by this method.

Ball-bearing: As the rolling friction less than the sliding friction consequently in rotating machinery, the shafts are fixed on the ball bearing so that the friction can be reduced considerably. For example-the free wheel of a cycle, the axle of a motorcar, the shafts of the motor dynmo etc. are provided with ball-bearing.

Lubricants: Friction between two surfaces can be decreased by using lubricants. A lubricant is a substance (a solid or a liquid) which forms a thin layer between the two surfaces in contact. It also fills the depressions present in the surfaces of contact and reduces friction considerably. In light machinery thin oils with low viscosity are used, in heavy and fast moving machinery thick oils and solutes (grease) are used.
Streamline: The friction due to air is reduced by making the automobiles streamline.

Methods of increasing friction:By making the surface rough friction can be increased. Examples of increasing friction-the tires of a motor car and bicycles are made rough to increase the friction .when a ground or surface become slippery after rain or water splashing it is made rough by spreading sand to increase the friction.

A ball is thrown vertically downwards with a speed 7.3 m/s from the top of a 51 m tall building. With what speed will it hit the

ddd [48]

Answer:

32.46m/s

Explanation:

Hello,

To solve this exercise we must be clear that the ball moves with constant acceleration with the value of gravity = 9.81m / S ^ 2

A body that moves with constant acceleration means that it moves in "a uniformly accelerated motion", which means that if the velocity is plotted with respect to time we will find a line and its slope will be the value of the acceleration, it determines how much it changes the speed with respect to time.

When performing a mathematical demonstration, it is found that the equations that define this movement are the follow

$\frac {Vf^{2}-Vo^2}{2.a} =X$

Where

Vf = final speed

Vo = Initial speed =7.3m/S

A = g=acceleration =9.81m/s^2

X = displacement =51m}

solving for Vf

$Vf=\sqrt{Vo^2+2gX}\\Vf=\sqrt{7.3^2+2(9.81)(51)}=32.46m/s$

the speed with the ball hits the ground is 32.46m/s

A ski gondola is connected to the top of a hill by a steel cable of length 620 m and diameter 1.5 cm. As the gondola comes to th

xz_007 [3.2K]

Answer:

(a) 89 m/s

(b) 11000 N

Explanation:

Note that answers are given to 2 significant figures which is what we have in the values in the question.

(a) Speed is given by the ratio of distance to time. In the question, the time given was the time it took the pulse to travel the length of the cable twice. Thus, the distance travelled is twice the length of the cable.

$v=\dfrac{2\times 620 \text{ m}}{14\text{ s}} = \dfrac{1240\text{ m}}{14\text{ s}}=88.571428\ldots \text{ m/s}= 89\text{ m/s}$

(b) The tension, $T$ , is given by

$v =\sqrt{\dfrac{T}{\mu}}$

where $v$ is the speed, $T$ is the tension and $\mu$ is the mass per unit length.

Hence,

$T = \mu\cdot v^{2}$

To determine $\mu$ , we need to know the mass of the cable. We use the density formula:

$\rho = \dfrac{m}{V}$

where $m$ is the mass and $V$ is the volume.

$m=\rho\cdot V$

If the length is denoted by $l$ , then

$\mu = \dfrac{m}{l} = \dfrac{\rho\cdot V}{l}$

$T = \dfrac{\rho\cdot V}{l} v^{2}$

The density of steel = 8050 kg/m3

The cable is approximately a cylinder with diameter 1.5 cm and length or height of 620 m. Its volume is

$V = \pi \dfrac{d^{2}}{4} l$

$T = \dfrac{\rho\cdot\pi d^2 l}{4l}v^2 = \dfrac{\rho\cdot\pi d^2}{4}v^2$

$T = \dfrac{8050\times\pi\times0.015^2}{4} \times 88.57^2$

$T = 11159.4186\ldots \text{ N} = 11000 \text{ N}$

How can humidity be used to predict if it is going to rain?

postnew [5]

1. Humidity cannot be used to predict rain.
2. I'm pretty sure it's weather but I'm not 100% sure. Maybe like 89% sure.

3. Tempurature doesn't affect humidity.

4. Not sure but I think its the 3rd one
