Friction occurs between two contacting surfaces. The coefficient of friction is very much dependent on the roughness of these surfaces. Some of the many ways in which the coefficient can be lessened or decreased are to lubricate the surface or make it shiny by eliminating the spikes which caused the roughness.

In a thermostat, what property of the bimetallic coil allows it to contract and expand? The two metals absorb different amounts
Reika [66]
Hello!

In a thermostat, the property of the bimetallic coil that allows it to contract and expand is that The two metals absorb different amounts of thermal energy. 

This bimetallic coil is used to transform thermal energy into mechanical movement. Two metals with different thermal expansivity are joined together parallelly and the changes of temperature cause bending in different directions depending on if the temperature is rising or descending. 

The differences in the thermal energy absorption of the two metals are the basis for the mechanism of this device.

2<br><br> How does Descartes' "quality of motion" differ from the modern<br><br> momentum?
Rzqust [24]

Answer: Descartes was more of speed which defers from modern day velocity.

Explanation:

Descartes law if conservation referred or defined “motion” rather than “momentum” as what is obtainable in today's world as ”speed” the rate at which something moves rather than “velocity” which is a product of speed and direction. So in conclusion Descartes was more of speed which defers from modern day velocity.

How fast, in rpm, would a 5.6 kg, 25-cm-diameter bowling ball have to spin to have an angular momentum of 0.26 kgm2/s
solong [7]

Answer:

71 rpm

Explanation:

Given that:

Angular momentum (L) = 0.26

Diameter = 25cm = 0.25 cm

Radius, r = (d/2) = 0.125m

Mass = 5.6 kg

Moment of inertia (I) = 2mr² / 5

I = (2 * 5.6 * 0.125^2) / 5

= 0.175

= 0.175 / 5

= 0.035 kgm²

Angular speed (w) ;

w = L / I

w = 0.26 / 0.035

= 7.4285714

= 7.429 rad/s

w = (7.429 * 60/2π)

w = 445.74 / 2π rpm

w = 70.941724

Angular speed = 70.94 rpm

= 71 rpm
