Answer:

Coefficient of friction =  Magnitude depends on the interacting materials

Friction = A force that acts parallel to the surface.

kinetic friction = A force that is constant regardless of the applied force

Normal = A force that acts perpendicular to the surface

Static friction = A force that increases as applied force increases up to some maximum value

Explanation:

Let's define all the forces, and then let's solve the problem.

Normal force:

When an object rests on some place (like a book on the table) the force that causes the book to not fall through the table is called the normal force, which is usually equal to the weight of the object and acts perpendicular to the surface where the object is resting.

Friction force.

When an object moves (or tries to move) parallel to a surface, such that the object is in contact with that surface, there appears a force that opposes to the movement (the force is parallel to the surface, and in the opposite direction to the movement).

And this force can be written as:

F = -N*μ

Where μ is the coefficient of friction and N is the normal force.

If the object is not moving yet (but there is applied a force that would move the object) the coefficient is called the coefficient of static friction which increases in a given range, until it can't keep increasing and the object starts to move, while if the object is moving, the coefficient is called the coefficient of kinetic friction and it is constant, where usually the first one is larger than the second, and these coefficients depend on both materials, the surface one and the object one.

Then we have two friction forces, one called the kinetic friction and the other called the static friction.

Then:

Coefficient of friction =  Magnitude depends on the interacting materials

Friction = A force that acts parallel to the surface.

kinetic friction = A force that is constant regardless of the applied force

Normal = A force that acts perpendicular to the surface

Static friction = A force that increases as applied force increases up to some maximum value

In a closed system, a cart with a mass of 1.5 kg is rolling to the right at 1.4 m/s, while another cart of mass 1.0 kg is rollin
bija089 [108]

Answer: The correct option is (c.).

Explanation:

Mass of the cart A= 1.5 kg

Velocity of Cart A = 1.4 m/s towards right

Mass of the cart B = 1.0 kg

Velocity of Cart B = 1.4 m/s towards left

Momentum (P)= Mass × Velocity

P_A=1.5 kg\times 1.4 m/s=2.1 kg m/s

P_B=1.0 kg\times (-1.4m/s)=-1.4 kg m/s

(Negative sign means velocity of the cart is in opposite direction of that of the cart A)

Total Momentum =P_A+P_B=2.10 kg m/s-1.40 kg m/s=0.70 kg m/s

Hence, the correct option is (c.).

Answer:

Catapult on the ground: Normal, gravity

Catapult (I'm assuming launching marshmallow): Reaction of Force Applied

Marshmallow: Force Applied

Explanation:

This is the forces that act on a stationary object and a launched object. The catapult may also experience a force friction if your teacher is taking a more practical sense.

How are magnetic and electric fields similar?
Licemer1 [7]

Answer:

Similarities between magnetic fields and electric fields: ... Magnetic fields are associated with two magnetic poles, north and south, although they are also produced by charges (but moving charges). Like poles repel; unlike poles attract. Electric field points in the direction of the force experienced by a positive charge ...

Explanation:

copied and pasted from google. I copied and pasted your question into google and got this exact answer

Here is another thing from the same website just not shortened:

Similarities between magnetic fields and electric fields:

- Electric fields are produced by two kinds of charges, positive and negative. Magnetic fields are associated with two magnetic poles, north and south, although they are also produced by charges (but moving charges).

- Like poles repel; unlike poles attract

- Electric field points in the direction of the force experienced by a positive charge. Magnetic field points in the direction of the force experienced by a north pole.

Differences between magnetic fields and electric fields:

- Positive and negative charges can exist separately. North and south poles always come together. Single magnetic poles, known as magnetic monopoles, have been proposed theoretically, but a magnetic monopole has never been observed.

- Electric field lines have definite starting and ending points. Magnetic field lines are continuous loops. Outside a magnet the field is directed from the north pole to the south pole. Inside a magnet the field runs from south to north.
