Unlike friction, gravity relies on a natural source. Gravity happens naturally, but friction happens when a force that opposes motion between any surfaces that are touching.

Answer:

Friction is when a force is applied or done by weight dragging onto something.

Explanation:

Gravity is when an object is getting pulled toward the center of what is attracting it. And applied force is when someone/sommething is applying force.

Which is an example of positive peer pressure?
Firdavs [7]

Answer:

B. A student asking others to join the leadership club.

A parent isn't a peer, therefore can't be peer pressure. Drinking is negative for your body, therefore not positive peer pressure. A teacher isn't a peer, therefore the only answer left is B.

True or false. On a distance-versus-time graph, a speed of zero would appear as a horizontal line.
lidiya [134]

Yes, that's a true statement.

The slope of a distance-time graph is speed.  When speed is zero,
the slope of the graph is zero, and that's a horizontal line.

A certain humidifier operates by raising water to the boiling point and then evaporating it. Every minute 30 g of water at 20◦ C
Sveta_85 [38]

Answer:

The value of total energy needed per minute for the humidifier = 77.78 KJ

Explanation:

Total energy per minute the humidifier required = Energy required to heat water to boiling point) + Energy required to convert liquid water into vapor at the boiling point) ----- (1)

Specific heat of water = 4190 \frac{J}{kg k}

The heat of vaporization is =  2256 \frac{KJ}{kg}

Mass = 0.030 kg

Energy needed to heat water to boiling point =  m c ( T_{2} - T_{1} )

Energy needed to heat water to boiling point = 0.030 × 4.19 × (100 - 20)

Energy (E_{1}) = 10.08 KJ

Energy needed to convert liquid water into vapor at the boiling point

E_{2} = 0.030 × 2256 = 67.68 KJ

Thus the total energy needed E =  E_{1} + E_{2}

E = 10.08 + 67.68

E = 77.78 KJ

This is the value of total energy needed per minute for the humidifier.
