How does friction slow things down?

Physics

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.

How to calculate the slope of position time graph?
Mashcka [7]

Answer:

The slope of a position-time graph can be calculated as:

m=\frac{\Delta y}{\Delta x}

where

\Delta y is the increment in the y-variable

\Delta x is the increment in the x-variable

We can verify that the slope of this graph is actually equal to the velocity. In fact:

\Delta y corresponds to the change in position, so it is the displacement, \Delta s

\Delta x corresponds to the change in time \Delta t, so the time interval

Therefore the slope of the graph is equal to

m=\frac{\Delta s}{\Delta t}

which corresponds to the definition of velocity.

At take off, a plane flies 100 km north before turning to fly 200 km east. How far is its destination from where the plane took
IRINA_888 [86]

<u>Answer</u>

224 Km

4 Km


<u>Explanation</u>

<u>Part 1</u>

The plane flies 100 Km north and then 200 Km east. This makes a 90° turn. To get the distance taken by the plane we get the hypotenuse.

c² = a² + b²

c² = 100² + 200²

   = 50,000

c = √50,000

    = 223.606 Km

The answer to the nearest whole number is 224 Km

<u>Part 2</u>

If the runner run 15 Km north then 11 Km south, the resultant distance would be,

15 - 11 = 4 Km

A bicycle wheel with radius 0.3 m rotates from rest to 3 rev/s in 5 s. What is the magnitude and direction of the total accelera
AlekseyPX

Answer:

Explanation:

Given

Radius of bicycle wheel r=0.3\ m

Initial angular velocity \omega _0=0

It rotates 3 revolution in 5 s therefore

\omega =2\pi 3=\6\pi =18.85\ rad/s

using \omega =\omega _0+\alpha t

where \alpha =angular\ acceleration

\omega =Final\ angular\ velocity

t=time

\alpha =\frac{18.85}{5}=3.77 rad/s^2

Total acceleration of any point will be a vector sum of tangential acceleration and centripetal acceleration

\omega at t=1

\omega =0+3.77\times 1=3.77 rad/s

a_c=\omega ^2\cdot r

a_c=(3.77)^2\cdot 0.3=4.26 m/s^2

Tangential acceleration a_t=\alpha \times r

a_t=3.77\times 0.3=1.13 m/s^2

a_{net}=\sqrt{a_t^2+a_c^2}

a_{net}=\sqrt{(1.13)^2+(4.26)^2}

a_{net}=4.41 m/s^2
