Answer:
Friction always acts in the direction opposing motion. This means if friction is present, it counteracts and cancels some of the force causing the motion (if the object is being accelerated).
Explanation:
Friction is the force resisting the relative motion of solid surfaces, fluid layers, and material elements sliding against each other.
Explanation:
1. Force applied on an object is given by :
F = W = mg
(a) A 160 lb human being, F = 160 lb
g = acceleration due to gravity, g = 32 ft/s²


m = 5 kg
(b) A 1.9 lb cockatoo, F = 1.9 lb


m = 0.059 kg
2. (a) A 2300 kg rhinoceros, m = 2300 kg

(b) A 22 g song sparrow, m = 22 g = 0.022 kg

Hence, this is the required solution.
Answer:
735N
Explanation:
Weight is a measurement of force.
F = Force
m = mass
a = acceleration
F = m*a
F = 75kg*9.8m/s²
F = 735N
Answer:
520 miles per hour
Explanation:
Let the speed of the Boeing 747 be x miles per hour.
The small airplane covers distance of 780 miles with speed 260 miles per hour.
Also,
After 1.5 hours the Boeing 747 leave the same place and reaches at same time. Both covered distance of 780 miles.
So,
<u>Time taken by Boeing 747 + 1.5 hours = Time taken by small plane.</u>
Also,
Time = Distance/ speed
So,
780 / x + 1.5 = 780/ 260
Solving for x, we get:
<u>x = 520 miles per hour</u>
