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.

Reil [10]
The correct option is D.
Sound proofing is usually achieved by using materials that absorbed or reduce sounds. Different materials are used in sounding proofing and these differ in their abilities to absorb or reduce sounds. The coefficient of absorption of a material refers to that material ability to absorb sound. The higher the percentage of a material absorption coefficient, the better the material's ability to absorb sound. Thus, in the question given above, the material with 62% absorption coefficient have the greatest ability of the three materials to absorb sound effectively. <span />

Determine the displacement and distance covered by a man if he walks 10 m north, turns east and walks 20 m, and then turns right
NemiM [27]

Answer:

20m

Explanation:

The two tens cancel each other out, as they are in opposite directions. Now we only care about the 20m, which if we have no 10's, will end up 20m away.

Which of the following changes would increase the force between two
Tomtit [17]

The answer is A. Decreasing the distance between the particles by a factor of 3.

The Universal Law of Gravitation is :

F = Gm₁m₂ / r² (where 'r' is the distance between them)

Since force is inversely proportional to the square of the distance between them, distance has to be decreased by a factor of 3 to increase the force to 9 times the original force.
