Define the types of friction and give FOUR examples of each

Physics
1 answer:
Verdich [7]3 years ago
4 0

Answer:

Static Friction - acts on objects when they are resting on a surface

Sliding Friction -  friction that acts on objects when they are sliding over a surface

Rolling Friction - friction that acts on objects when they are rolling over a surface

Fluid Friction - friction that acts on objects that are moving through a fluid

Explanation:

Examples of static include papers on a tabletop, towel hanging on a rack, bookmark in a book , car parked on a hill.

Example of sliding include sledding, pushing an object across a surface, rubbing one's hands together, a car sliding on ice.

Examples of rolling include truck tires, ball bearings, bike wheels, and car tires.

Examples of fluid include water pushing against a swimmer's body as they move through it , the movement of your coffee as you stir it with a spoon,  sucking water through a straw, submarine moving through water.

A bullet is fired into the air at an angle of 45°. How far does it travel before it is 1,000 feet above the ground? (Assume that
Readme [11.4K]

Answer:

It travels 1414 feets.

Explanation:

Let's take the length the bullet travels <em>l </em>as the hypotenuse of a right triangle and the height it reaches one of its sides. Since we got the angle α at which it was fired and the height <em>h</em> it reached, we can calculate <em>l</em> using the <em>sin(α)</em> function:

sin(\alpha )=\frac{opposite side}{hypotenuse}\\sin(\alpha)=\frac{h}{l}\\l=\frac{h}{sin(\alpha)}

Replacing:

l=\frac{1000ft}{sin(\frac{\pi}{4})}

Solving and roundin to the nearest foot:

l=1414 ft

What happenes to our body temperature on a cold winter day or a hot summer day
viva [34]

In cold winter day, the body temperature falls down from normal temperature of 98.6°F (37°C) to 95°F (35°C). In winter body losses heat faster than it generates heat. If the temperature fall further below 95°F (35°C), it is emergency condition known as Hypothermia. One has to consult doctor in this case.

In summer hot days, body evaporates water in the form of sweat, in order to remain itself cool. Rise of temperature up to 100°F is normal. It is recommended to hydrate body to maintain temperature in summer days.

The latent heat of fusion for Aluminium is 3.97 x 105. How much energy would be required to melt 0.75 kg of it?
RoseWind [281]

Answer:

E = 2.9775\times10^5 J

Explanation:

Given:  The latent heat of fusion for Aluminum is L = 3.97\times10^5  J/Kg

mass to be malted m = 0.75 Kg

Energy require to melt E = mL

E = 3.97\times10^5\times0.75 = 2.9775\times10^5 J

Therefore, energy required to melt 0.75 Kg aluminum

E = 2.9775\times10^5 J

A copper wire 1.0 meter long and with a mass of .0014 kilograms per meter vibrates in two segments when under a tension of 27 Ne
Furkat [3]

Answer:

the frequency of this mode of vibration is 138.87 Hz

Explanation:

Given;

length of the copper wire, L = 1 m

mass per unit length of the copper wire, μ = 0.0014 kg/m

tension on the wire, T = 27 N

number of segments, n = 2

The frequency of this mode of vibration is calculated as;

F_n = \frac{n}{2L} \sqrt{\frac{T}{\mu} } \\\\F_2 = \frac{2}{2\times 1} \sqrt{\frac{27}{0.0014} }\\\\F_2 = 138.87 \ Hz

Therefore, the frequency of this mode of vibration is 138.87 Hz
