Answer:
It's helps Emily became when she swims her hair is not in the way creating friction and making her swim faster. friction acts between two metals blocks that slide past each other.
Explanation:
F = 2820.1 N
Explanation:
Let the (+)x-axis be up along the slope. The component of the weight of the crate along the slope is -mgsin15° (pointing down the slope). The force that keeps the crate from sliding is F. Therefore, we can write Newton's 2nd law along the x-axis as
Fnet = ma = 0 (a = 0 no sliding)
= F - mgsin15°
= 0
or
F = mgsin15°
= (120 kg)(9.8 m/s^2)sin15°
= 2820.1 N
Yes. Think of block sitting on top of a bigger block. If the bottom block moves, it will drag the top block with it. Since the force of friction on the small block and its displacement are in the same direction, the "work" is positive. The static friction is a passive force, It is not a source of energy; it transmits the force placed on the bottom block. (And the "work" done by the friction on the bottom block is exactly the negative of the work done on the top block.)
