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.

14. If the spring constant of a simple harmonic oscillator is doubled, by what factor will the mass of the system need to change
klio [65]

Lets se

And

\\ \rm\Rrightarrow T=2\pi\sqrt{\dfrac{m}{k}}

\\ \rm\Rrightarrow \sqrt{k}T=2\pi\sqrt{m}

So

\\ \rm\Rrightarrow k\propto m

If spring constant is doubled mass must be doubled

You are watching a magic show. For one trick the magician rolls a ball down a hill. Suddenly the ball stops moving down the hill
poizon [28]
The forces (what causes the ball to accelerate) are gravity, friction, and the normal force. In this case, gravity is a downward force caused by the gigantic mass of the Earth and the mass of the ball. Keep in mind that a force is acceleration. Acceleration is a change in velocity. The ball speeds up. Than it stops speeding up at a certain point where the frictional force (along with air friction) equals the parallel component of gravity. 




Newton's Second Law States- The greater mass of an object, the more force it will take to accelerate the object.

What is the mass of an object that creates 33,750 joules of energy by traveling at 30 m/sec?
nikklg [1K]
The Energy is Kinetic Energy.

Kinetic Energy = 1/2*mv²,  Where m is mass in kg, v is velocity in m/s

Energy is 33750 Juoles,  v = 30m/s

1/2*mv² = E

1/2*m*30² = 33750

m = (2*33750) / (30²)     Using a calculator

m = 75 kg

Mass of object is 75 kg.
