The type of friction you are looking for is static friction, which is friction that acts between two stationary objects.

The type of friction friction acts on an object that is not moving is called "static friction" also called potential energy. Potential energy is energy a object has when it's not moving, static energy the force that takes place in a object when it's not moving. A example of static friction would be a ball, at first it would be static friction because it has the potential to move because of it's shape, then it would be fraction when it gets kicked then, it would be slide fraction once it slides over the edge of a hill.

Hope this helps!

A 0.8 g object is placed in a 534 N/C uniform electric field. Upon being released from rest, it moves 12 m in 1.2 s. Determine t
Mice21 [21]

Explanation:

It is given that,

Mass of the object, m = 0.8 g = 0.0008 kg

Electric field, E = 534 N/C

Distance, s = 12 m

Time, t = 1.2 s

We need to find the acceleration of the object. It can be solved as :

m a = q E.......(1)

m = mass of electron

a = acceleration

q = charge on electron

"a" can be calculated using second equation of motion as :

s=ut+\dfrac{1}{2}at^2

s=0+\dfrac{1}{2}at^2

a=\dfrac{2s}{t^2}

a=\dfrac{2\times 12\ m}{(1.2\ s)^2}

a = 16.67 m/s²

Now put the value of a in equation (1) as :

q=\dfrac{ma}{E}

q=\dfrac{0.0008\ kg\times 16.67\ m/s^2}{534\ N/C}

q = 0.0000249 C

or

q=2.49\times 10^{-5}\ C

Hence, this is the required solution.

Answer:

-\frac{1}{2}

Diverging lens

Explanation:

Given parameters:

Power of lens  = -2.0D

Unknown:

Focal length  = ?

Solution:

The power of lens is the reciprocal of the focal length;

   P  = \frac{1}{f}

where  f is the focal length

 f  = \frac{1}{P}   = -\frac{1}{2}

The lens is a diverging lens

A speed-time graph is shown below:
VladimirAG [237]

Answer: 0.5 m/s^{2}

Explanation:

Average acceleration a_{ave} is the variation of velocity \Delta V over a specified period of time \Delta t:

a_{ave}=\frac{\Delta V}{\Delta t}}

Where:

\Delta V=V_{f}-V_{o} being V_{o}=0 cm/s the initial velocity and V_{f}=4 cm/s the final velocity  (according to the information given from the described graph)

\Delta t=8 s

Then:

a_{ave}=\frac{4 cm/s -0 cm/s}{8 s}}

a_{ave}=0.5 m/s^{2}

You are in your car at rest when the traffic light turns green. You place your coffee cup on the horizontal dash and hit the gas
umka21 [38]

Answer:

(d) Negative.

Explanation:

let's test each at a time.

(a) It can't be 0, because cup would slide back other wise.

(b) Positive, well if forward is positive, than the work done against the forward acceleration must be negative , so it can't be positive.

(c) Equal to non-conservative work done by the car's engine.

well no, because work done by car's engine dosen't go all of it into getting car to move, so it can't be that.

(d) negative, this look like it, because work that friction does must be nagative to counteract positive thrust of car which is positive and in forward direction.

(d) this can't be true.

So the answer is (d) negative.
