Answer:

An air hockey table has a very smooth and slippery surface which reduces friction by suspending the puck on cushion of air, so that this its motion is much less altered by friction, causing it to glide in a straight line at relatively constant velocity across the table.

ValentinkaMS [17]

Answer:

4.80 seconds

Explanation:

The velocity of sound is obtained from;

V= 2d/t

Where;

V= velocity of sound = 329.2 ms-1

d= distance from the wall = 790.5 m

t= time = the unknown

t= 2d/V

t= 2 × 790.5/ 329.2

t= 4.80 seconds

How do you identify short and long term comets
erica [24]
A second important difference between comets coming from the Kuiper Belt and from the Oort cloud is represented by their different characteristic periods.
In fact, short period comets are thought to generate in the Kuiper belt and have rather predictable orbits with short periods (up to 200 years). There are two major families of short period comets: the Jupiter family with periods of less than 20 years and the Halley family with periods form 20 to 200 years. That's short

jeka57 [31]

Answer:

Friction is a force that holds back the movement of a sliding object.

Explanation:

The two types of friction: Static friction and Kinetic friction.  Static friction operates between two surfaces that aren't moving relative to each other, while kinetic friction acts between objects in motion.
