Answer:

his feet feel warmer because of friction. when friction takes place then an object will warm up because friction is a universal law that always takes place. if you rub your hands together, you also experience the heat of frictional I hope that helped.

Likurg_2 [28]

Answer: $k_{min}=\frac{18mg}{h}$

Explanation:

Given

mass of person is m

Distance between bridge and river is h

chord has an un-stretched length of $\frac{2h}{3}$

Let spring constant be k

Person will just stop before hitting the river

Conserve energy i.e. Potential Energy of Person is converted in to elastic energy of chord

$mgh=\frac{kx^2}{2}$

$x=h-\frac{2h}{3}=\frac{h}{3}$

$mgh=\frac{kh^2}{18}$

$k=\frac{18mg}{h}$

Thus $k_{min}=\frac{18mg}{h}$

A mug rests on an inclined surface, as shown in (Figure 1) , θ=17∘.

Anna [14]

Refer to the figure shown below.

g = 9.8 m/s², the acceleration due to gravity.
W = mg, the weight of the mug.
θ = 17°, the angle of the ramp.

Let μ = the coefficient of static friction.

The force acting down the ramp is
F = W sin θ = W sin(17°) = 0.2924W N
The normal reaction is
N = W cosθ = W cos(17°) = 0.9563W N
The resistive force due to friction is
R = μN = 0.9563μW N

For static equilibrium,
μN = F
0.9563μW =0.2924W
μ = 0.3058

The frictional force is F = μN = 0.2924W
The minimum value of μ required to prevent the mug from sliding satisfies
the condition
R > F
0.9563μW > 0.2924W
μ > 002924/.9563 = 0.306

Answer:
The frictional force is 0.2924mg, where m = the mass of the mug.
The minimum coefficient of static friction is 0.306
