Friction slows things down because the tiny rough bumps on all surfaces hook on each other and slow down the object and produce heat

Friction slows things down because the force that is created through the interaction between two objects begins to decrease the acceleration and velocity of the object. Therefore, the object begins to slow down.

Two identical satellites orbit the earth in stable orbits. One satellite orbits with a speed v at a distance r from the center o
jolli1 [7]

Answer:

c)At a distance greater than r

Explanation:

For a satellite in orbit around the Earth, the gravitational force provides the centripetal force that keeps the satellite in motion:

G\frac{Mm}{r^2}=m\frac{v^2}{r}

where

G is the gravitational constant

M is the Earth's mass

m is the satellite's mass

r is the distance between the satellite and the Earth's centre

v is the speed of the satellite

Re-arranging the equation, we write

r = \frac{GM}{v^2}

so we see from the equation that when the speed is higher, the distance from the Earth's centre is smaller, and when the speed is lower, the distance from the Earth's centre is larger.

Here, the second satellite orbit the Earth at a speed less than v: this means that its orbit will have a larger radius than the first satellite, so the correct answer is

c)At a distance greater than r

What is air pressure?
dolphi86 [110]

Answer:

A. Earth's gravity pulling down on air molecules

Explanation:

Air pressure refers to the weight of the air per unit surface area. It is the amount of gravitational force which is pulling down the molecules of air.

The common unit of air pressure is: Pascal, atm

1 atm = 101325 Pa

As the column of the air above increases, the air pressure increase. This is because with the increase in amount of air, the weight increase of the air increases. This is the reason a diver feels immense pressure in the sea and cooking takes a lot of time on hilly areas because of low air pressure.

Describe an example where materials are prepared as fluids so that they can be moved easily
den301095 [7]

Answer:

In general solids are easier to transport than liquids, but the above metal example is a valid one and the only other one that comes to mind is that of concrete. It is mixed as a liquid and transported as such, but then sprayed or laid down to dry and form a solid surface or filler.
