A ball is rolling along at speed v without slipping on a horizontal surface when it comes to a hill that rises at a constant ang
MissTica

Answer:

The ball has an initial linear kinetic energy and initial rotational kinetic energy which can both be converted into gravitational potential energy. Therefore the hill with friction will let the ball reach higher.

Explanation:

The ball has an initial linear kinetic energy and initial rotational kinetic energy which can both be converted into gravitational potential energy. Therefore the hill with friction will let the ball reach higher.

This is because:

If we consider the ball initially at rest on a frictionless surface and a force is exerted through the centre of mass of the ball, it will slide across the surface with no rotation, and thus, there will only be translational motion.

Now, if there is friction and force is again applied to the stationary ball, the frictional force will act in the opposite direction to the force but at the edge of the ball that rests on the ground. This friction generates a torque on the ball which starts the rotation.

Therefore, static friction is infact necessary for a ball to begin rolling.

Now, from the top of the ball, it will move at a speed 2v, while the centre of mass of the ball will move at a speed v and lastly, the bottom edge of the ball will instantaneously be at rest. So as the edge touching the ground is stationary, it experiences no friction.

So friction is necessary for a ball to start rolling but once the rolling condition has been met the ball experiences no friction.

A chemical equation lists NaHCO3(s) as a reactant. What does (s) indicate?
Ostrovityanka [42]

Answer:

The (s) indicates that the state of matter for NaHCO3 is solid.

Explanation:

When a chemical reaction is written, the state of matter for each components of the reactants and products are mentioned in brackets along with their names or formulas.

For example, NaHCO3 has (s) mentioned in the brackets. The s shows that the state of matter for NaHCO3. (l) represents liquid format. (g) represents that the state of matter is gas.
