Answer;

The above statement is True

Kinetic friction is affected by the weight of the object.

<h3><u>Explanation;</u></h3>
  • Kinetic friction is a force that acts between moving surfaces. An object that is in motion over a surface experiences a force in the opposite direction to the direction of movement.
  • The equation for kinetic friction is given by the formula;

            F= coefficient of friction * Normal force.

  • Normal force is the force of the table pushing back on the block and can be calculated by formula;

              F = mass* acceleration due to gravity.

  • Therefore, the weight of an object determines its kinetic friction.

zvonat [6]
<span>The question is 'a centre seeking force related to acceleration is ............... force. The answer is centripetal force. Motion in a curved path is an accelerated motion and it requires a force that will direct the moving object towards the centre of curvature of the path of motion. This centre seeking force is known as centripetal force.</span>

A 1.00-kg sample of steam at 100.0 °C condenses to water at 100.0 °C. What is the entropy change of the sample if the latent hea
Sunny_sXe [5.5K]

Answer:

The entropy change of the sample of water =  6.059 x 10³ J/K.mol

Explanation:

Entropy: Entropy can be defined as the measure of the degree of disorder or randomness of a substance. The S.I unit of Entropy is J/K.mol

Mathematically, entropy is expressed as

ΔS = ΔH/T....................... Equation 1

Where ΔH = heat absorbed or evolved, T = absolute temperature.

<em>Given:  If 1 mole of water = 0.0018 kg,</em>

<em>ΔH = latent heat × mass = 2.26 x 10⁶ × 1 = 2.26x 10⁶ J.</em>

<em>T = 100 °C = (100+273)  K = 373 K.</em>

<em>Substituting these values into equation 1,</em>

<em>ΔS =2.26x 10⁶/373</em>

ΔS = 6.059 x 10³ J/K.mol

Therefore the entropy change of the sample of water =  6.059 x 10³ J/K.mol
