Frictional force and Applied force has same “magnitude” and “opposite” direction.  

Option: B  

<u>Explanation</u>:  

When a book is moved horizontally by applying “force” on the book, the frictional force is opposed to the book by the table. Here, this “frictional force” is opposing the book has the same force what we applied on the book but this frictional force and the applied force are opposite in direction. Always the “frictional force” is opposite to the “applied force” which stops the object to move. For example, if a force applied leftward to the object the frictional force is acted on the right side of the object.

When two objects are in contact they experience a "frictional force". This "frictional force" acts opposite to the force applied on to move the object.

Formula for "frictional force" is \mu\times N

Where, \mu is coefficient of friction and N is normal force.

In an isolated system, Bicycle 1 and Bicycle 2, each with a mass of 10 kg,
dimulka [17.4K]

Answer: 20 kgm/s

Explanation:

Given that M1 = M2 = 10kg

V1 = 5 m/s , V2 = 3 m/s

Since momentum is a vector quantity, the direction of the two object will be taken into consideration.

The magnitude of their combined

momentum before the crash will be:

M1V1 - M2V2

Substitute all the parameters into the formula

10 × 5 - 10 × 3

50 - 30

20 kgm/s

Therefore, the magnitude of their combined momentum before the crash will be 20 kgm/s

an Olympic runner leaps over a hurdle.if the runner initial vertical speed is 2.2m/s how much will the runners center of mass be
Snowcat [4.5K]
Supposing the runner is condensed to a point and moves upward at 2.2 m/s.
It takes a time = 2.2/g = 2.2/9.8 = 0.22 seconds to increase to max height. 
Now looking at this condition in opposite - that is the runner is at max height and drops back to earth in 0.22 s (symmetry of this kind of motion). 
From what height does any object take 0.22 s to fall to earth (supposing there is no air friction)? 
d = 1/2gt²= (0.5)(9.8)(0.22)²= 0.24 m

During its swing, a pendulum on a clock has the kinetic energy of 6J and the potential energy of 5J. What formula will you use t
svlad2 [7]

Answer:

Potential energy is converted to kinetic energy, which is the energy exerted by a moving object. An active pendulum has the most kinetic energy at the lowest point of its swing when the weight is moving fastest.
