Describe the factors that cause static friction between two surfaces to increase.

Physics
1 answer:
maw [93]3 years ago
4 0

Answer : The static friction depends on two factors

1. Roughness of the surface

2. Force

Explanation : Friction occur when surface is not smooth.

The formula of friction is

F= \mu mg

Static friction depends on the roughness of the surface and force which is trying to push to object along the surface.

Static friction is caused by the attraction between two surfaces that are in contact.  when the surface will rough and the object will heavier then the force will be larger.

Anne has a sample of a substance. Its volume is 20 cm3, and its mass is 100 grams. What is the sample’s density?
JulsSmile [24]
The answer is:  " 5 g / cm³ " .
____________________________________________
Explanation:  
____________________________________________
Density = mass divided by volume ; or: "D = m / V " ;
____________________________________________
    and is expressed as:  "mass per unit volume" ;

The mass, "m", is expressed in units of "g" (grams) ; and
the volume, "V" is expressed in units of "cm³ " or "mL" ; ("cm³ ", in this case);

{Note the exact conversion:  " 1 cm³ = 1 mL " .} .
_____________________________________________________
So, if:  the mass, "m = 100 g"  {given} ; 

and the volume,  " V = 20 cm³ " {given} ;
_______________________________
Plug these values into the formula/equation to solve for the density, "D" ;
________________________________________________
    D =  m / V =  (100 g) / (20 cm³)  
 
         = (100 ÷ 20)  g / cm³  = 5 g /cm³ .
____________________________________________
    The answer is:  " 5 g / cm³ " .

4. How does temperature affect the density of a material?
lara31 [8.8K]

Answer:

Heating a substance causes molecules to speed up and spread slightly further apart, occupying a larger volume that results in a decrease in density. ... Hot water is less dense and will float on room-temperature water. Cold water is more dense and will sink in room-temperature water.

Kinetic energy is the energy of an object in motion. It is expressed as the product of its mass and the square of its velocity. The opposite of this energy is called the potential energy, the energy of an object at rest. Calculations are as follows:

KE = mv^2
</span><span>1.8x10^5 J = m(20 m/s)^2

When light of wavelength 350 nm is incident on a metal surface, the stopping potential of the photoelectrons is measured to be 0
Alenkasestr [34]

Answer:3.05 eV

Explanation:

Given

wavelength of light \lambda =350 nm

Stopping Potential =0.5 V

and We know Energy of an incoming light is given by

E=\frac{hc}{\lambda }

E=\frac{6.626\times 10^{-34}\times 3\times 10^8}{350\times 10^{-9}}

E=5.68\times 10^{-19} J

or E=3.55 eV

From Einstein Photo Electric Equation

E=\omega _0+K.E.

and Stopping Potential is equal to gain in kinetic Energy by ejected Electron

3.55=\omega _0+0.5

\omega _0=3.05 eV
