Do you think that rubbing two pieces of woods together would have more or less friction than wood rubbing against smooth metal ?

why?

Answer: More friction

Explanation: The wood would probably splinter, causing even more friction, while the metal would probably smooth the wood out.

A total charge of 4.70 is distributed on two metal spheres. When the spheres are 10 cm apart, they each feel a repulsive force o

Anna35 [415]

Answer:0.114 C

Explanation:

Given

Total 4.7 C is distributed in two spheres

Let $q_1$ and $q_2$ be the charges such that

$q_1+q_2=4.7$

and Force between charge particles is given by

$F=\frac{kq_1q_2}{r^2}$

$4.7\times 10^11=\frac{9\times 10^9\times q_1\cdot q_2}{0.1^2}$

$q_1\cdot q_2=0.522$

put the value of $q_1$

$q_2\left ( 4.7-q_2\right )=0.522$

$q_2^2-4.7q_2+0.522=0$

$q_2=\frac{4.7\pm \sqrt{4.7^2-4\times 1\times 0.522}}{2}$

$q_2=0.114 C$

thus $q_1=4.586 C$

A piece of metal has attained a velocity of 107.8 m/sec after fallinf for 10 seconds what is its initial velocity

soldi70 [24.7K]

Answer:

7.8 m/s

Explanation:

Here object is falling with a gravitational acceleration there for we can take acceleration = 10 m/ s² and its constant through out the motion there for we can use motion equation

V = U + at

V - Final velocity

U - Initial velocity

a - acceleration

t - time

V=U+at

107.8=U + 10×10

= 7.8 m/s

Assume a maximum stopping acceleration of g/2 where g is acceleration due to gravity.

Answer:

2.99 m/s

Explanation:

Stopping distance, s = 3 ft = 0.914 m

final velocity, v = 0

a = g/2 = 4.9 m/s²

Use third equation of motion:

$v^2-u^2 = 2as$

substitute the values to find the speed of train:

$0 -u^2 = 2\times -4.9 \times 0.914 \\u^2=8.96 \\u=2.99 m/s$
