How is friction reduced between an air hockey puck and the table.

Physics
1 answer:
iren2701 [21]3 years ago
6 0

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.

3. <span>The second piston will experience the same force as compared with the first. This is because since the </span>pressure is the same everywhere inside the fluid system,<span> the force is proportional to the surface area. We are told that both the first and the second piston have the same surface area, therefore, they will both experience the same force/pressure.


4. </span>The situation is much the same as number 3 above, with the exception that the second piston is twenty times larger than the first. Again, since the pressure is the same everywhere inside the fluid system, the force is proportional to the surface area. We are told that the second piston is 20 times larger than the first, therefore, the larger piston will experience 20 times larger the force of the small one.


6. The answer is TRUE. The <span>hydraulic </span>braking system<span> of most cars makes use of a vacuum servo (or booster), which is located between the </span>brake pedal<span> and the master cylinder piston. </span><span>This vacuum servo amplifies the force applied </span><span>from the </span>brake pedal<span>.</span>

What are the units for the spring constant, k? A. newton meters B. newton seconds C. newtons/meter D. newtons/second E. newtons/
mr Goodwill [35]

Answer:

C. N/m (newtons/meter)

Explanation:

Since the equation for potential energy for a spring is PE = 1/2kx², after you know <em>k </em>and <em>x</em>, you will get an answer in Joules.

Please let me know if you want me to explain further!

Thanks!

Sloan [31]

Answer:

Constructive interference

Explanation:

Here, the medium is same, same wavelength, same frequency, same amplitude and same direction of propagation.

Let the intensity of waves be I which is same for both

The formula for the net intensity is

I^{2}=I_{1}^{2}+I_{2}^{2}+2I_{1}I_{2}Cos\phi

where, Ф be the phase difference

So, I_{R}^{2}=I^{2}+I^{2}+2IICos6\pi

Here, IR is maximum so the interference is constructive in nature.
