Answer:
An <u>applied force</u> is a force that is applied to an object by a person or another object. If a person is pushing a desk across the room, then there is an applied force acting upon the object. The applied force is the force exerted on the desk by the person.
A <u>friction force</u> is the force exerted by a surface as an object moves across it or makes an effort to move across it. There are at least two types of friction force - sliding and static friction. Though it is not always the case, the friction force often opposes the motion of an object. For example, if a book slides across the surface of a desk, then the desk exerts a friction force in the opposite direction of its motion. Friction results from the two surfaces being pressed together closely, causing intermolecular attractive forces between molecules of different surfaces. As such, friction depends upon the nature of the two surfaces and upon the degree to which they are pressed together. The maximum amount of friction force that a surface can exert upon an object can be calculated using the formula below:

Answer: The diameter of the circular path is 2.96m
Explanation: centripetal acceleration = tangential speed^2 / radius of the circular path.
Centripetal acceleration = 2.7m/s^2
Tangential speed = 2.0m/s
Radius = 2.0^2 / 2.7 = 4/2.7
= 1.48m
Diameter = radius*2
= 1.48*2 = 2.96m.
Answer:
2.36 x 10^6 J
Explanation:
Tc = 0°C = 273 K
TH = 22.5°C = 295.5 K
Qc = heat used to melt the ice
mass of ice, m = 85.7 Kg
Latent heat of fusion, L = 3.34 x 10^5 J/kg
Let Energy supplied is E which is equal to the work done
Qc = m x L = 85.7 x 3.34 x 10^5 = 286.24 x 10^5 J
Use the Carnot's equation
QH = 309.8 x 10^5 J
W = QH - Qc
W = (309.8 - 286.24) x 10^5
W = 23.56 x 10^5 J
W = 2.36 x 10^6 J
Thus, the energy supplied is 2.36 x 10^6 J.
Answer: The atmosphere of trophic rainforest is hot and humid due to high rate of transpiration.
Explanation:
The tropical rainforest is a biome which exhibit rich biodiversity of plants and animals. The average temperatures in this region remain high with warm summer. It remains frost free. The soil is nutrient deficient. Due to hot temperature the rate of transpiration remains high as a result the concentration of the water vapors remain high. This is responsible for increasing the humidity in the atmosphere also this region receives appreciable amount of rainfall annually. The average rainfall range is 200-450 centimeters.
