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

4 0

Answer:

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

A plane passes over Point A with a velocity of 8000 m/s north. Forty seconds later it passes over Point B at a velocity of 10,00
Airida [17]

Answer:

The planes’ acceleration from A to B is 500m/s^2

Explanation:

Given that the initial velocity u is 8000m/s

and also given the final velocity v=10,000 m/s

the time taken to move from A to B = 40 second

The acceleration is defined as the rate of change of velocity with time

we know that the expression for acceleration is given as

a=(v-u)/t

substituting our given data into the expression for a we have

a=(10000-8000)/40

a=2000/40

a=500m/s^2

The planes’ acceleration from A to B is 500m/s^2

What can be found by counting the number of troughs per second in a wave diagram? amplitude direction frequency speed wavelength
Nutka1998 [239]
The period T is time it takes for one complete cycle or from "trough to trough" so the reverse is trough per sec = 1/T = frequency

For a bronze alloy, the stress at which plastic deformation begins is 294 MPa and the modulus of elasticity is 121 GPa. (a) What
FromTheMoon [43]

Answer:

a) load in Newton is 96,138 b) 129.314mm

Explanation:

Stress = force/ area (cross sectional area of the bronze)

Force(load) = 294*10^6*327*10^-6 = 96138N

b) modulus e = stress/ strain

Strain = stress/ e = (294*10^6)/ (121*10^ 9) = 2.34* 10^ -3

Strain = change in length/ original length = DL/ 129

Change in length DL = 129 * 2.34*10^ -3 = 0.31347

Maximum length = change in length + original length = 129.314mm

A car maintains a constant speed v as it traverses the hill and valley as shown below. Both the hill and valley have a radius of
Zigmanuir [339]

Answer:

As given that the car maintains a constant speed v as it traverses the hill and valley where both the valley and hill have a radius of curvature R.

(i) At point C, the normal force acting on the car is largest because the centripetal force is up. gravity is down and normal force is up. net force is up so magnitude of normal force must be greater than the car's weight.

(ii) At point A, the normal force acting on the car is smallest because the centripetal force is down. gravity is down and normal force is up. net force is up so magnitude of normal force must be less than car's weight.

(iii) At point C, the driver will feel heaviest because the driver's apparent weight is the normal force on her body.

(iv) At point A, the driver will feel the lightest.

(v)The car can go that much fast without losing contact with the road at A can be determined as follow:

Fn=0 - lose contact with road

Fg= mv²/r

mg=mv²/r

v=sqrt (gr)
