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

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

What is the difference between the equilibrium vector and the resultant vector
Tresset [83]

the difference between a resultant and equilibrant vector is that resultant vector is a direct quantity, one with both magnitude and direction, while the equilibrant vector is a force equal to, but opposite of, the resultant sum of vector forces, that force which balances other forces.

A mine elevator is supported by a single steel cable 0.0125 m in diameter. The total mass of the elevator cage and occupants is
Sonja [21]

Answer:

0.8895m

Explanation:

Cable diameter = 0.0125m

Mass of elevator = 6450kg

Young Modulus(E) = 2.11*10¹¹N/m

∇l (change in length) =

L = 362m

A = Πr², but r = d / 2 = 0.0125 / 2 = 0.00625m

A = 3.142 * (0.00625)² = 1.227*10^-4m²

Young Modulus (E) = Tensile stress / Tensile strain

E = (F / A) / ∇l / L

F = mg = 6450 * 9.8 = 63210N

2.11*10¹¹ = (63210 / 1.22*10^-4) / (∇l / 362)

2.11*10¹¹ = 5.18*10⁸ / (∇l / 362)

2.11*10¹¹ = (5.18*10⁸ * 362) / ∇l

2.11*10¹¹ = 1.875*10¹¹ / ∇l

∇l = 1.875*10¹¹ / 2.11*10¹¹

∇l = 0.8895m

The change in length is 0.8895m

If the truck has a mass of 2,000 kilograms , what's its momentum?(v=35 m/s)
katen-ka-za [31]

Answer:

\boxed {\boxed {\sf  70,000 \ kg*m/s}}

Explanation:

Momentum is the product of mass and velocity.

p=m*v

The mass of the truck is 2,000 kilograms and the velocity is 35 meters per second.

m= 2000 \ kg \\v= 35 \ m/s

Substitute the values into the formula and multiply.

p= 2000 \ kg * 35 \ m/s \\p= 70,000 \ kg*m/s

The truck's momentum is <u>70,000 kilograms meters per second.</u>
