A phase change is occuring; the liquid water is changing to gaseous water, or steam. On a molecular level, the intermolecular forces between the water molecules are decreasing. The heat is providing enough energy for the water molecules to overcome these attractive forces.
The speed at the sound barrier is 343 m/s
Answer:
Explanation:
An object is at rest along a slope if the net force acting on it is zero. The equation of the forces along the direction parallel to the slope is:
(1)
where
is the component of the weight parallel to the slope, with m being the mass of the object, g the acceleration of gravity, 
the angle of the slope
is the frictional force, with 
being the coefficient of friction and R the normal reaction of the incline
The equation of the forces along the direction perpendicular to the slope is
where
R is the normal reaction
is the component of the weight perpendicular to the slope
Solving for R,
And substituting into (1)
Re-arranging the equation,
This the condition at which the equilibrium holds: when the tangent of the angle becomes larger than the value of , the force of friction is no longer able to balance the component of the weight parallel to the slope, and so the object starts sliding down.
The floor exerts 20 N of force on the chair
Explanation:
We can answer this question by using Newton's third law, which states that:
<em>"When an object A exerts a force (called action) on an object B, object B exerts an equal and opposite force (called reaction) on object A"</em>
In this problem, we can identify:
- Object A as the chair
- Object B as the floor
This means that the force of 20 N exerted by the chair on the floor is the action, and so the force exerted by the floor on the chair is the reaction. Newton's third law states that these two forces are equal and opposite: therefore, the force exerted by the floor on the chair is also 20 N, but in the opposite direction.
