Friction always acts____ and in the ____ direction of the motion of an object ​

Physics
1 answer:
Fed [463]2 years ago
5 0

Answer:

Friction force always acts tangent to the surface at points of contact. Friction force acts opposite to the direction of motion. There are 2 types of friction: Static friction: If the two surfaces in contact do not move relative to each other, one has static friction.

An object is allowed to fall freely near the surface of a planet. The object has an acceleration due to gravity of 24 m/s2. How
Alborosie

Answer:

12 m

Explanation:

The object is in uniformly accelerated motion, so the distance covered can be found using the following suvat equation:

s=ut+\frac{1}{2}at^2

where

s is the distance

u is the initial velocity

t is the time

a is the acceleration

For this problem,

g=24 m/s^2

and

u = 0, since we are considering the first second of motion

So, substituting t = 1 s, we find

s=0+\frac{1}{2}(24)(1)^2=12 m

A body is dropped from the roof of a 20 m high building by how much:
USPshnik [31]

Answer:

t = 2.01 s

Vf = 19.7 m/s

Explanation:

It's know through the International System that the earth's gravity is 9.8 m/s², then we have;

Data:

  • Height (h) = 20 m
  • Gravity (g) = 9.8 m/s²
  • Time (t) = ?
  • Final Velocity (Vf) = ?

==================================================================

Time

Use formula:

  • \boxed{t=\sqrt{\frac{2*h}{g}}}

Replace:

  • \boxed{t=\sqrt{\frac{2*20m}{9.8\frac{m}{s^{2}}}}}

Everything inside the root is solved first. So, we solve the multiplication of the numerator:

  • \boxed{t=\sqrt{\frac{40m}{9.8\frac{m}{s^{2}}}}}

It divides:

  • \boxed{t=\sqrt{4.08s}}

The square root is performed:

  • \boxed{t=2.01s}

==================================================================

Final Velocity

use formula:

  • Vf = g * t

Replace:

  • Vf = 9.8 m/s² * 2.01 s

Multiply:

  • Vf = 19.7 m/s

==================================================================
