Answer:

Friction does not oppose motion, it oppose relative motion.

Explanation:

static friction opposes relative motion

Answer:

there are three types or friction

1) Static friction

2) Rolling Friction

3) Sliding friction

Static friction comes to end when the object starts moving(or starts motion ) so Sliding Friction and Rolling Friction opposes motion l.

Which describes the movement of a fluid during convection?

VikaD [51]

The movement of a fluid during convection is a circular/oval motion since the fluid at the top sinks and the fluid at the bottom rises.

Hope this helps :)

Distinguish between a converging lens and a diverging lens.

andriy [413]

Answer:A converging lens is thickest in the middle and causes parallel light rays to converge through the focal point on the opposite side of the lens. A diverging lens is thinner in the middle and causes parallel light rays to diverge away from the focal point on the same side of the lens.

A truck loaded with sand accelerates along a highway. The driving force on the truck remains constant. What happens to the accel

pickupchik [31]

Answer:

Acceleration will increase.

Explanation:

The relation between force, mass and acceleration according to the Newton's second law of motion is given as:

F = ma

We are given that the driving force on the truck remains constant, so F is constant here. We can rewrite the above equation as:

$a=\frac{F}{m}$

Since, F is constant, the acceleration of the truck is inversely proportional to the mass.

There is a hole at the bottom of the truck through which the sand is being lost at a constant rate. Since, the sand is being lost, the overall mass of the truck is being reduced.

Since, the acceleration of the truck is inversely proportional to the mass, the reduced mass will result in an increased acceleration.

So, the acceleration of the truck will increase.

Energy that flows from somthing with a higher temperature to something with a lower

spayn [35]

Answer:

Heat Transfer

Explanation:

This is called heat transfer. Heat transfer is the process in which energy flows from a matter that is higher in heat to a matter that is cooler, until the two matters reach the same temperature.

The old rubber boot has two leaks. The top of the boot is 0.3 m higher than the leaks. What is the velocity of the water coming

Otrada [13]

Answer:

Leak 1 = 3.43 m/s

Leak 2 = 2.42 m/s

Explanation:

Given that the top of the boot is 0.3 m higher than the leaks.

Let height H = 0.3m and the acceleration due to gravity g = 9.8 m/s^2

From the figure, the angle of the leak 1 will be approximately equal to 45 degrees. While the leak two can be at 90 degrees.

Using the third equation of motion under gravity, we can calculate the velocity of leak 1 and 2
