If you look two surfaces at microscopic level, you'll see that they have tiny interlocks. When you bring two surfaces in contact, they are held together strongly because of this interlocks which makes two objects difficult to perform motion.

How the movement of the earth cause the appeared daily and annual movement of the sun and stars​
timurjin [86]
As the Earth rotates on it’s axis we perceive the sky differently depending on where we are. This is known as a day, where the Earths rotation controls the day/night cycle. As Earth orbits the sun our axis wobbles, thus at different times in the year different regions of the Earth can see different areas in the sky.

Hope this helps!

What would happen if the difference between the earth and moon decreased?
Natali5045456 [20]
Now, moving the Moon closer to the Earth will increase the gravitational exertion of the satellite onto our planet. If the satellite were slightly closer, the tidal bulge would grow. Low tideswould be lower and high tideswould be higher and any low lying coastline would be flooded.

Assuming that the uncertainty in mass is negligible, and the uncertainty in velocity is 5 %, what is the uncertainty in the mome
Flura [38]

Answer:

 Δp = 0.05 p

Explanation:

The moment is

      p = m v

The uncertainty of the moment is

       Δp = dp/dm Δm + dp/dv Δv

Like the uncertainty in the mass is zero

       Δm = 0

       ΔP = m Δv

We divide for the moment

       Δp / p = Δv / v

  They do not indicate that Δv / v = 0.05

       Δp / p = 0.05

       Δp = 0.05 p

In the case of a system consisting of two cars

      p = m₁ v₁ + m₂ v₂

     Δp = dp / dv₁ Δv₁ + dp / dv₂ Δv₂

     Δp = m₁ Δv₁ + m₂ Δv₂

     Δv₁ / v₁ = 0.05

     Δv₁ = 0.05 v₁

     Δv₂ / v₂ = 0.05

     Δv₂ = 0.05 v₂

We replace

       Δp = m₁ 0.05 v₁ + m₂ 0.05 v₂

       Δp = 0.05 p

A mass of 150 g stretches a spring 1.568 cm. If the mass is set in motion from its equilibrium position with a downward velocity
nadezda [96]

Answer:

u(t)=\frac{1}{5} sin\ (25t)

Explanation:

Given:

  • mass of the body stretching the spring, m=150\ g
  • extension in spring, \Delta x=1.568\ cm
  • velocity of oscillation, u'(0)=20\ cm.s^{-1}
  • initial displacement position of equilibrium, u(0)=0

<u>According to given:</u>

m.g=k.\Delta x

150\times 980=k\times 1.568

k=93750\ dyne.cm^{-1}

<u>we know frequency:</u>

\omega=\sqrt{\frac{k}{m} }

\omega=\sqrt{\frac{93750}{150} }

\omega=25

Now, for position of mass in oscillation:

u= A.sin\ (\omega.t)+B.cos\ (\omega.t)

u= A.sin\ (25.t)+B.cos\ (25.t)

at t=0;\ u(0)=0\ \Rightarrow A=0

∴u(t)=B.sin\ (25.t)

∵ at t=0;\ u'(0)=20\ cm.s^{-1}\ \Rightarrow B=\frac{1}{5}

u(t)=\frac{1}{5} sin\ (25t)
