<u>Friction:</u>
When an object slips on a surface, an opposing force acts between the tangent planes which acts in the opposite direction of motion. This opposing force is called Friction. Or in other words, Friction is the opposing force that opposes the motion between two surfaces.
The main component of friction are:
<u>Normal Reaction (R):
</u>
Suppose a block is placed on a table in the above picture, which is in resting state, then two forces are acting on it at that time.
The first is due to its weight mg which is working from its center of gravity towards the vertical bottom.
The second one is superimposed vertically upwards by the table on the block, called the reaction force (P). This force passes through the center of gravity of the block.
Due to P = mg, the box is in equilibrium position on the table.
<u>Coefficient of friction ( </u>μ )<u>:
</u>
The ratio of the force of friction and the reaction force is called the coefficient of friction.
Coefficient of friction, µ = force of friction / reaction force
μ = F / R
The coefficient of friction is volume less and dimensionless.
Its value is between 0 to 1.
<u>Advantage and disadvantage from friction force:
</u>
- The advantage of the force of friction is that due to friction, we can walk on the earth without slipping.
- Brakes in all vehicles are due to the force of friction.
- We can write on the board only because of the force of friction.
- The disadvantage of this force is that due to friction, some parts of energy are lost in the machines and there is wear and tear on the machines.
<u>How to reduce friction:
</u>
- Using lubricants (oil or grease) in machines.
- Friction can be reduced by using ball bearings etc.
- Using a soap solution and powder.
<span>In this problem, we need to solve for Bubba’s mass. To do this, we let A be the area of the raft and set the weight of the displaced fluid with the raft alone as ρwAd1g and ρwAd2g with the person on the raft, </span>where ρw is the density of water, d1 = 7cm, and d2= 8.4 cm. Set the weight of displaced fluid equal to the weight of the floating objects to eliminate A and ρw then solve for m.
<span>ρwAd1g = Mg</span>
ρw<span>Ad2g = (M + m) g</span>
<span>d2∕d1 = (M + m)/g</span>
m = [(d2<span>∕d1)-1] M = [(8.4 cm/7.0 cm) - 1] (600 kg) =120 kg</span>
This means that Bubba’s mass is 120 kg.
We need to be careful here.
The calculation of the gravitational force between two objects
refers to the distance between their centers.
The minimum possible distance between the Earth's and moon's
centers is the sum of their radii (radiuses).
Earth's radius . . . . . 6,360 km = 6.36 x 10⁶ meters
Moon's radius . . . . . 1,738 km = 1.738 x 10⁶ meters
Sum of their radii = 8.098 x 10⁶ meters
Also:
Earth's mass . . . . . 5.972 x 10²⁴ kg
Moon's mass . . . . . 7.348 x 10²² kg
<span>
and now we're ready to go !
Gravitational force =
G M₁ M₂ / R²
= (6.67 x 10⁻¹¹ N-m²/kg²)(</span><span>5.972 x 10²⁴ kg)(7.348 x 10²² kg)/</span>(8.098 x 10⁶ m)²
= (6.67 · 5.972 · 7.348 / 8.098²) · (10²³) Newtons
= (I get ...) 4.463 x 10²³ Newtons
That's almost exactly 10²³ pounds
= 50,153,000,000,000,000,000 tons.
Those are big numbers.
All I can say is: I wouldn't exactly call that "resting" on the surface".
Answer:
Low-cost energy. Although building nuclear power plants has a high initial cost, it’s relatively cheap to produce energy from them and they have low operating costs.
Reliable. One of the biggest benefits of nuclear energy is that it is a reliable power generation source.
Zero carbon emissions. Nuclear power reactors do not produce any carbon emissions.
Promising future energy supply.
