Question: <span>When a bicycle tire gets mud on it, the tire becomes slippery. What does the mud do to the tire?

C. It decreases the force of friction.

First mud is not a solid. It is more of a slow liquid like corn syrup. And when you are caught in mud or trying to ride past the mud you loose friction with the ground.
You could also resemble friction with traction. In a car. If there is water & oil mixed on the road and you go past it at a high mph range. You will loose traction and start skipping against the mixed substance. This reduces your traction (friction) with the ground.

Final Answer:

C. It decreases the force of friction

Which of the following is a definition of glass transition temperature?
aleksandr82 [10.1K]

Answer:

c. The temperature at which a glass transforms from a solid to liquid.

Explanation:

The glass transition temperature is said to be a temperature range when a polymer structure transition from a glass or hardy(solid) material to a rubber like or viscous liquid material.

The glass transition temperature is an important property that is critical in product design.

to start an avalanche on a mountain slope, an artillery shell is fired with an initial velocity of 290 m/s at 53.0° above the ho
kap26 [50]
So this is easy to calculate when you split the velocity into x and y components. The x component is going to equal cos(53) * 290 and the y component is going to equal sin(53)*290.

The x location therefore is 290*cos(53)*35 = 6108.4m

The y location needs to factor in the downwards acceleration of gravity too, which is 9.81m/s^2. We need the equation dist. = V initial*time + 0.5*acceleration*time^2.

This gives us d=290*sin(53)*35 + (0.5*-9.81*35^2)=2097.5m

So your (x,y) coordinates equals (6108.4, 2097.5)
