How important friction is?

Physics
1 answer:
kirill [66]3 years ago
3 0

Friction is important because;

  • It enables us to walk due to the grip our feet have on the ground.
  • It enables the planes to fly due to the drag force.
  • It enables vehicles to move and to stop due to brakes and tire marks
  • Friction enables us to write using a pen.

A spherical shell contains three charged objects. The first and second objects have a charge of − 14.0 nC and 31.0 nC , respecti
allsm [11]

Answer:

The charge on the third object is − 21.7nC

Explanation:

From Gauss's Law

Φ = Q/ε₀

where;

Φ is the total electric flux through the shell = − 533 N⋅m²/C

Q is the total charge Q in the shell = ?

ε₀ is the permittivity of free space = 8.85 x 10⁻¹²

From this equation; Φ = Q/ε₀

Q = Φ * ε₀ = − 533 * 8.85 x 10⁻¹²

Q =  −4.7 X 10⁻⁹ C = -4.7nC

Q = q₁ + q₂ + q₃

− 4.7nC = − 14.0 nC + 31.0 nC + q₃

− 4.7nC − 17nC = q₃

− 21.7nC = q₃

Therefore, the charge on the third object is − 21.7nC

A head-on, elastic collision between two particles with equal initial speed v leaves the more massive particle (mass m1) at rest
ZanzabumX [31]
<span>1/3 The key thing to remember about an elastic collision is that it preserves both momentum and kinetic energy. For this problem I will assume the more massive particle has a mass of 1 and that the initial velocities are 1 and -1. The ratio of the masses will be represented by the less massive particle and will have the value "r" The equation for kinetic energy is E = 1/2MV^2. So the energy for the system prior to collision is 0.5r(-1)^2 + 0.5(1)^2 = 0.5r + 0.5 The energy after the collision is 0.5rv^2 Setting the two equations equal to each other 0.5r + 0.5 = 0.5rv^2 r + 1 = rv^2 (r + 1)/r = v^2 sqrt((r + 1)/r) = v The momentum prior to collision is -1r + 1 Momentum after collision is rv Setting the equations equal to each other rv = -1r + 1 rv +1r = 1 r(v+1) = 1 Now we have 2 equations with 2 unknowns. sqrt((r + 1)/r) = v r(v+1) = 1 Substitute the value v in the 2nd equation with sqrt((r+1)/r) and solve for r. r(sqrt((r + 1)/r)+1) = 1 r*sqrt((r + 1)/r) + r = 1 r*sqrt(1+1/r) + r = 1 r*sqrt(1+1/r) = 1 - r r^2*(1+1/r) = 1 - 2r + r^2 r^2 + r = 1 - 2r + r^2 r = 1 - 2r 3r = 1 r = 1/3 So the less massive particle is 1/3 the mass of the more massive particle.</span>

Which of the following choices defines energy in scientific terms?
snow_tiger [21]
1) B. Energy is the ability to do work

2) C. Energy is conserved, it just goes from one form to another.

3) Work = Force x displacement
= 300 x 100 = 30,000 Joules

4) leaning a brick because no displacement is taking place.

5) They change the amount/strength or direction of the force needed.

6) Less force is needed and applied over a longer distance.

7) Heat is the flow of thermal energy from one object to another.
