Answer:

Coefficient of friction.

Explanation:

The amount of friction divided by the weight of an object is equal to the coefficient of friction. It is a dimensional less number. It can be given by :

$F=\mu N$

N is normal force.

$\mu$ = coefficient of friction

$\mu=\dfrac{F}{N}$

A particle moving on a plane curve what is the degree of freedom

kirill115 [55]

A particle confined to move along a curved path has only one degree of freedom. inclined plane are some examples of constrained motion. Every condition of constraint reduces the number of degree of freedom by one.

I hope this helps!

a ball is projected upward at time t = 0.00 s from a point on a roof 70 m above the ground. The ball rises, then falls and strik

grin007 [14]

Answer: 17.68 s

Explanation:

This problem is a good example of Vertical motion, where the main equation for this situation is:

$y=y_{o}+V_{o}t-\frac{1}{2}gt^{2}$ (1)

Where:

$y=0$ is the height of the ball when it hits the ground

$y_{o}=70 m$ is the initial height of the ball

$V_{o}=82m/s$ is the initial velocity of the ball

$t$ is the time when the ball strikes the ground

$g=9.8m/s^{2}$ is the acceleration due to gravity

Having this clear, let's find $t$ from (1):

$0=70m+(82m/s)t-\frac{1}{2}(9.8m/s^{2})t^{2}$ (2)

Rewritting (2):

$-\frac{1}{2}(9.8m/s^{2})t^{2}+(82m/s)t+70m=0$ (3)

This is a quadratic equation (also called equation of the second degree) of the form $at^{2}+bt+c=0$ , which can be solved with the following formula:

$t=\frac{-b \pm \sqrt{b^{2}-4ac}}{2a}$ (4)

Where:

$a=-\frac{1}{2}(9.8m/s^{2}$

$b=82m/s$

$c=70m$

Substituting the known values:

$t=\frac{-82 \pm \sqrt{82^{2}-4(-\frac{1}{2}(9.8)(70)}}{2a}$ (5)

Solving (5) we find the positive result is:

$t=17.68 s$

Determine the mass of Ar in 1.00 liter of a gas mixture at 25oC which contains 0.300 atm of Ne and has a total pressure of 4.00

sergejj [24]

Answer:

The mass of Ar is 36.91g

Explanation:

The gas mixture consist of Neon(Ne) and Argon(Ar)

Partial pressure of Ar = total pressure of mixture - partial pressure = 4 - 0.3 = 3.7 atm

Mole fraction of Ar = partial pressure of Ar ÷ total pressure of mixture = 3.7/4 = 0.925

Mass of Ar = 0.925 × molecular weight of Ar = 0.925 × 39.9 = 36.91g

Visit this website and locate the element mercury, whose chemical symbol is Hg. Click on the square to read about the history, p

Irina-Kira [14]

We simply asked to name three uses for mercury.
The most common and well-known use of mercury is the production of thermometers. It's property to stay liquid at room temperature makes it ideal for a temperature indicator. However, the use of mercury is thermometers has been phased out due to health hazards.
It is also used to form an amalgam which is the result of its combination with silver or gold. Mercury has been used to mine gold and silver. This application has also been phased out.
Today's use of mercury includes mercury-vapor lamps which are the bright lamps used in high-ways.
