we know if we apply the force along the left, friction acts along the right and vice versa.But what about an object which is not

moving but at rest on a surface?​

Answer:

<em>Explanation below</em>

Explanation:

<u>Friction Force</u>

When two objects are in contact, the surface between them exerts a frictional force as long as the objects are tried to move with respect to each other.

If a given external force is applied to the left, then a friction force appears to the right and opposes the intent to move them. A similar situation occurs when the force is applied to the right side.

If the object is at rest and no force is applied, no friction force appears.

It's important to recall that two different friction forces are defined: the kinetic friction force and the static friction force, usually the latter is greater than the first.

The latin word (Cirro) mean that the clouds are in high level <br><br> True of false?
Ivahew [28]

Answer:

False

Explanation:

The Latin word "Cirro" means "curly" or "curl of hair" as in a cirrocumulus cloud. Cirrocumulus clouds are wispy clouds, and while they do appear high in the sky, the word "cirro" does not mean high in level.

Therefore, the answer is False.

Have a lovely rest of your day/night, and good luck with your assignments! ♡

Which of the following represents a fully plastic collision? 1. Two billiard balls hit each other then move in opposite directio
Nutka1998 [239]

Answer:

Option (4)

Explanation:

There are two types of collision.

Perfectly elastic collision: the collision in which the momentum and kinetic energy is conserved. There is no loss of energy in other forms of energy.

Perfectly plastic collision: The collision in which the momentum is conserved and kinetic energy is not conserved. The two bodies stick after the collision.

Here, the bullet hits the block and then embedded in the block, it is the example of plastic collision.

You can increase the capacitance of a capacitor by A. Decreasing the plate spacing B. Increasing the plate spacing. ° C. Decreas
eimsori [14]

You can increase the capacitance of a capacitor by decreasing the plate spacing (A) or by increasing the area of the plates (D).

'A' and 'D' both do the job, so the correct choice is<em> (E)</em> .

A person slaps her leg with her hand, which results in her hand coming to rest in a time interval of 2.65 ms from an initial spe
dezoksy [38]

Answer:

the magnitude of the average contact force exerted on the leg is  3466.98 N

Explanation:

Given the data in the question;

Initial velocity of hand v₀ = 5.25 m/s

final velocity of hand v = 0 m/s

time interval t = 2.65 ms = 0.00265 s

mass of hand m = 1.75 kg

We calculate force on the hand F_{hand

using equation for impulse in momentum

F_{hand × t = m( v - v₀ )

we substitute

F_{hand × 0.00265  = 1.75( 0 - 5.25 )

F_{hand × 0.00265  = 1.75( - 5.25 )

F_{hand × 0.00265  = -9.1875

F_{hand = -9.1875 / 0.00265  

F_{hand = -3466.98 N

Next we determine force on the leg F_{leg

Using Newton's third law of motion

for every action, there is an equal opposite reaction;

so, F_{leg = - F_{hand

we substitute

F_{leg = - ( -3466.98 N )

F_{leg = 3466.98 N

Therefore, the magnitude of the average contact force exerted on the leg is  3466.98 N
