while taking a turn on a track, the track provides the frictional force acting towards the center of the curve. we know that to move in a curve, centripetal force is required. here since the frictional force acts towards the center, it provides the necessary centripetal force to move in circle. hence the correct choice is

friction

It's actually Friction.

I just did the test and got it right.

If a gun is fired straight up and has a muzzle velocity of 424 m/s how long will it take the bullet to reach its maximum height?
mr Goodwill [35]

Answer:

43.3 s

Explanation:

At the maximum height, the velocity is 0 m/s.

Given:

v₀ = 424 m/s

v = 0 m/s

a = -9.8 m/s²

Find: t

v = at + v₀

0 = -9.8t + 424

t ≈ 43.3

The time is approximately 43.3 seconds.

hypnotist covers a distance of 5 kilometre in one hour and Rahul covers the same distance in 2 hour calculate the speed and stat
adell [148]

Answer:

At 5km/hr; Hypnotist travels with a higher speed.

Explanation:

Let hypnotist be H while Raul be R.

Given the following data;

Distance H = 5km

Time H = 1 hour

Distance R = 5km

Time R = 2 hours

To find the their respective speed;

a. For H;

Speed = distance/time

Speed H = 5/1

Speed H = 5km/hr

b. For R;

Speed = distance/time

Speed R = 5/2

Speed R = 2.5 km/hr

Therefore, hypnotist travels with a higher speed.

What is a partial and total lunar eclipse?
Minchanka [31]

Partial Lunar Eclipse:

A partial lunar eclipse is when the earth gets between the Sun and Moon. However, all three bodies are not in alignment meaning we are able to see some more like part of the moon's surface as it moves in route of the Earth's shadow.

Total Lunar Eclipse:

The three celestial bodies are perfectly aligned which allows for the earth to completely block the sun's rays from hitting/reaching the moon. The sun is positions is in back of the Earth which then causes the shadow of the earth to be cast on the Moon covering the moon completely. When that happens you get the phenomenon called a total lunar eclipse.

Hopefully this helped and good luck.

Susan's 12.0 kg baby brother Paul sits on a mat. Susan pulls the mat across the floor using a rope that is angled 30∘ above the
Pavlova-9 [17]

Answer:1.71 m/s

Explanation:

Given

mass of Susan m=12 kg

Inclination \theta =30^{\circ}

Tension T=29 N

coefficient of Friction \mu =0.18

Resolving Forces Along x axis

F_x=T\cos \theta -f_r

where f_r=friction\ Force  

F_y=mg-N-T\sin \theta

since there is no movement in Y direction therefore

N=mg-T\sin \theta

and f_r=\mu N

Thus F_x=T\cos \theta -\mu N

F_x=29\cos (30)-\0.18\times (12\times 9.8-29\sin (30))                

F_x=25.114-18.558

F_x=6.556 N

Work done by applied Force is equal to change to kinetic Energy

F_x\cdot x=\frac{1}{2}\cdot mv_f^2-\frac{1}{2}\cdot mv_i^2

6.556\times 2.7=\frac{1}{2}\cdot 12\times v_f^2

v_f^2=\frac{6.556\times 2.7\times 2}{12}

v_f^2=2.95

v_f=1.717 m/s
