Answer:
Friction produces unnecessary heat leading to the wastage of energy. The force of friction acts in the opposite direction of motion, so friction slows down the motion of moving objects. Forest fires are caused due to the friction between tree branches. However, friction can also cause problems in a car. Friction between moving engine parts increases their temperature and causes the parts to wear down. Friction can be both harmful and helpful, so it may be necessary to decrease or increase friction.
Answer:
8.6 m/s
Explanation:
We can find the final velocity of the dog by using the following SUVAT equation:
where
u is the initial velocity
a is the acceleration
d is the distance covered
For the dog in the problem, we have
u = 1.5 m/s
And the distance covered is
d = 3.0 m
Therefore, we can re-arrange the equation to find the final velocity, v:
The formula for force exerted on/by a spring is
F = k*e where k is the spring constant and x is the distance stretched from
unstrained position. This should allow you to find what you need.
Using F = k x e,
where k is the spring constant,
and e is the extension,
The F is her weight = 45 X 0.80
= 36 N
Answer: 10.3m/s
Explanation:
In theory and for a constant velocity the physics expression states that:
Eq(1): distance = velocity times time <=> d = v*t for v=constant.
If we solve Eq (1) for the velocity (v) we obtain:
Eq(2): velocity = distance divided by time <=> v = d/t
Substituting the known values for t=15s and d=155m we get:
v = 155 / 15 <=> v = 10.3
