Suppose that you changed the area of the bottom surface of the friction cart without changing its mass, by replacing the Teflon
slab with one that was smaller but thicker. The contact area would shrink, but the normal force would be the same as before. Would this change the friction force on the sliding cart
in this case the weight of the vehicle does not change , consequently the friction force should not change
Explanation:
The friction force is a macroscopic manifestation of the interactions of the molecules between the two surfaces, this force in the case of solid is expressed by the relation
fr = μ N
W-N= 0
N = W
as in this case the weight of the vehicle does not change nor does the Normal one, consequently the friction force should not change
The capacitor should be connected in parallel as parallel connection gives the arithmetic sum of capacitance which will give a corresponding sum of energy while capacitors in series gives the sum of the reciprocal if the individual capacitance
