Differentiate between adhesion and cohesion.

Physics
1 answer:

<h2>Answer:</h2>

<h2>Cohesion </h2>

Is the attraction that molecules have for others of their same type.

<h2>Adhesion </h2>

Is the attraction that molecules have for others of different type by  intermolecular forces.

A good example of both is water  that can stick to itself through hydrogen bonds (cohesion) and can also stick to a glass due to adhesion.

So, while Cohesion is the force of attraction between adjacent particles within the same body, Adhesion is the interaction between the surfaces of different bodies.

A circus acrobat is shot out of a cannon with an initial upward speed of 34 ft/s. if the acrobat leaves the cannon 4 ft above th

<h2>It will take 0.125 seconds to reach the net.</h2>

Explanation:

Initial speed, u = 34 ft/s = 10.36 m/s

Acceleration, a = -9.81 m/s²

Displacement, s = Final height - Initial height = 8 - 4 = 4 ft = 1.22 m

We have equation of motion, s = ut + 0.5 at²

Substituting

              s = ut + 0.5 at²

              1.22 = 10.36 x t + 0.5 x -9.81 x t²

              4.905t² - 10.36 t + 1.22 = 0

              t = 1.99 s     or    t = 0.125 seconds

Minimum time is 0.125 seconds.

It will take 0.125 seconds to reach the net.

The eiffel tower is a steel structure whose height increases by 19.5 cm when the temperature changes from −8 to +42 °c. what is
Readme [11.4K]
 The coefficient of expansion is 13 * 10^-6 m per meter length.per oK 
The temperature difference = 42 - - 8 = 50 oC 
delta T = (42 + 273) - (-8 + 273) = 50 oK 
delta L = L * 13* 10^6 m/oK 
oK = 50 oK delta L = 19.5 cm = 19.5 cm [1m / 100 cm] = 0.195m 
So we need to find the length and it is computed by:
0.195= L * 13 * 10^-6 * 50 L = 0.195 / (13*10^-6*50) L = 300 m

The work-energy theorem states that a force acting on a particle as it moves over a ______ changes the ______ energy of the part
ololo11 [35]

Answer:

distance/ kinetic

Explanation:

According to the work energy theorem, the work done by all forces is equal to the change in kinetic energy of the body.

So, As the force is applied in the same direction of the distance traveled,so only the kinetic energy of the body changes as after application of force, the speed of the body changes.
