Answer:

Friction

Explanation:

Friction can be simply defined as the force that creates resistance to any motion of a particular object that moves relative to another object. It occurs because of the electromagnetic force of attraction that is generated by the charged particles located between the two distinct contacting surfaces. It is a non-fundamental force.

This type of force is mainly responsible for the resisting of sliding and/or rolling of an object over the other one.

A cat lies on the floor. can you say that no force acts on the cat? or is it correct to say that no net force acts on the cat? e
DIA [1.3K]

Odd though it seems at first, gravity is pulling the cat down while the floor is pushing the cat up - in equal amounts. Forces are absolutely acting on the cat but they balance - so there is no net force.

A motorcycle traveling at 36 m/s slams on the brakes to avoid an accident. The motorcycle skids 23m before stoping. What is the
Svetach [21]
Since the motor cycle was moving at 36 m/s before the brakes were applied, the initial velocity
u = 36 {ms}^{ - 1}
The motorcycle traveled 23m before stopping, that means
s = 23m
Since the motorcycle stopped moving the final velocity is zero.

v = 0{ms}^{ - 1}
We can use this 'suvat' equation of linear motion.

{v}^{2}  =  {u}^{2}  + 2as
Plugging in the above values gives,

{0}^{2}  =  {36}^{2}  + 2a(23)


0 =  1296+ 46a
46a =  - 1296
a =  - 28.2 {ms}^{ - 2}


We can use the equation
v = u + at
to find the time the motorcycle took to stop.

0 = 36  +  - 28.2t
- 36 =  - 28.2t
t = 1.3s

A car traveling at 30 m/s drives off a cliff that is 50 meters high? How far away does it land?
Semenov [28]

Answer:

The maximum range R_{max}= 132. 72 m

Explanation:

Given,

The initial velocity of the car, u = 30 m/s

The height of the cliff, h = 50 m

Let the car drives off the cliff with a horizontal velocity of 30 m/s.

The formula for a projectile that is projected from a height h from the ground is given by the relation

                                R_{max}= \frac{u}{g}\sqrt{u^{2} + 2gh }  m

Where,

                          g - acceleration due to gravity

Substituting the values in the above equation

                   R_{max}= \frac{30}{9.8}\sqrt{30^{2} + 2X9.8X50 }  

                                          = 132.72  m

Hence, the car lands at a distance, R_{max}= 132. 72 m
