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.

7. Two bikes travelling in the same direction move at a speed of 30 km/hr. The bikes are separated by a distance of 5 km. What w
Fantom [35]

Answer:

Explanation:

Call the bike on the right A

Call the bike on the left B

The car begins it's time when it passes A

4 minutes later, it passes B.

But B has moved in 4 minutes and that is the key to the problem.

How far has B moved.

t = 4 minutes = 4/60 hours = 1/15 of an hour.

d = ?

rate = 30 km / hr

d = r * t

d = 30 km/hr * 1/15 hours = 2 km

The distance between the bikes is 5 km.

So the car has traveled 5 - 2 = 3 km

d = 3 km

r = ?

t = 4 minutes = 1/15 hour

r = d/t = 3/(1/15)= 3 / 0.066666666  = 45 km/hr.

Let’s tie this all together. It makes sense that, if the rope force remains greater than the gravitational force, the child keep
Pavlova-9 [17]

Answer:

If child weight is equal to rope force then child will move with uniform speed

or we can say that the child will remain at rest in his position

Explanation:

As we know that child is hanging by rope

so here there will be two forces on the child

1) Weight or gravitational force which act vertically downwards

2) Tension in the rope which act vertically upwards

Now if child will accelerate upwards then tension force must be more than the weight of the child

If tension force is less than the weight then child will decelerate and his speed will decrease

if tension force is equal to child weight then in that case the child will remain at rest or it will move with same speed
