Can some one help with this question? "What is the relationships between. The force due to friction and the force due to gravity

? Is it true for all four surfaces? (wood, rubber, carpet, and sandpaper)

Okay, so let's start off with the difference between the force of friction, and the force of gravity.
Friction, is when two things rub against each-other. (Such as tectonic plates.)
Gravity, is something being held down towards the center of the earth.
(They are both caused by forces.)

Let's imagine wood is being rubbed against your hand. It isn't very comfortable, yet it moves evenly over your skin.
Now, let's use rubber. The skin on your hand is moving back and forth, along with the rubber.
Carpet. This is moving over your skin, yet causing some irritation.
With sandpaper. It is moving over your hand slightly like the rubber was, except this is trying to shape your hand, so therefore it is causing irritation.

I hope this helped in some way. May not have been the exact thing you wanted, but this should help give you an idea. (:

(7) A 2500 lbm car moving at 25 mi/hr is accelerated at a constant rate of 15 ft/s2 up to a speed of 50 mi/hr. What is the force
balandron [24]

Answer:

The  force is  F =  1164.6\  lbf

The time is   \Delta t =  2.44 \  s

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

  The  mass of the car is  m  =  2500 \ lbm

   The  initial velocity of the car is u  =  25 \ mi/hr

   The final  velocity of the car is  v  =  50 \  mi/hr

  The acceleration is  a =  15 ft/s^2 =  \frac{15 *  3600^2}{ 5280} =  36818.2 \  mi/h^2

   

Generally the acceleration is mathematically represented as

      a =  \frac{v-u}{\Delta t}

=>   36818.2 =  \frac{50 - 25 }{ \Delta t}

=>   t = 0.000679 \  hr

converting to seconds

       \Delta t =  0.0000679 *  3600

=>     \Delta t =  2.44 \  s

Generally the force is mathematically represented as

        F  =  m * a

=>      F  =  2500 *  15

=>      F  =  37500 \ \frac{lbm *  ft}{s^2}

Now converting to foot-pound-second we have  

         F =  \frac{37500}{32.2}

=>        F =  1164.6\  lbf

What minimum heat is needed to bring 250 g of water at 20 ∘C to the boiling point and completely boil it away? The specific heat
Amiraneli [1.4K]

Answer:633.8 KJ

Explanation:

Given

mass of water\left ( m\right )=250gm

Initial temperature\left ( T_i\right )=20^{\circ}C

Final temperature \left ( T_f\right )=100^{\circ}C

Specific heat of water \left ( c \right )=4190 J/kg-k

heat of vaporization\left ( L\right )=22.6\times 10^5 J/kg

Heat required for process\left ( Q\right )=heat to raise water temperature from 20 to 100 +Heat to vapourize water completely

Q=mc\left ( T_f-T_i\right )+mL

Q=0.25\times 4190\times \left ( 100-20\right )+0.25\times 22\times 10^5

Q=\left ( 0.838+5.5\right )\times 10^5

Q=6.338\times 10^5J=633.8 KJ

11. You sit at the outer rim of a Ferris wheel that rotates 2 revolutions per minute (RPM). What would your rotational speed be
aalyn [17]
If you are instead clinging to a position halfway from the center to the outer rim of the Ferris wheel, YOUR ROTATIONAL SPEED WILL STILL BE 2 REVOLUTION PER MINUTE.
This is because, every part of the wheel is moving with the same speed, so it does not matter where you sit on the wheel, the rotation per minute will still be the same. It is just like travelling inside a motor car, it does not matter whether you are sitting in the front passenger seat or at the back, the speed of the car remains the same.

The diagram shows an example of convection.
const2013 [10]

Answer: Option (C) is the correct answer.

Explanation:

When we heat a fluid then the movement within the fluid makes hot (less dense) material to rise and cooler (more denser) material to sink at the bottom. This process is known as convection.

Thus, in the diagram hot (less dense) water will rise and cooler (more dense) water sinks at the bottom.

Therefore, we can conclude that according to the arrow the label belongs to cooler water sinks.
