When friction slows a sliding block___

Physics
1 answer:
Svetradugi [14.3K]3 years ago
6 0

Answer:

A

Explanation:

When friction slows a sliding block, <u>the kinetic energy of the block is transformed into internal energy .</u>

<em>The frictional movement of two surfaces over one another leads to the conversion of some of their kinetic energies to another energy - heat or thermal energy. Hence, the temperatures of the objects are raised in the process. </em>

<u>Therefore, when a sliding block is slowed down due to friction, some of the kinetic energy of the block would be transformed into internal energy in the form of heat.</u>

The correct option is A.

________ occurs when the horizontal winds move air against mountain ranges, forcing air to rise as it passes over the mountains.
Semenov [28]
The answer would be:
Precipitation sometimes occurs when the horizontal winds move air against mountain ranges, forcing air to rise as it passes over the mountains.
This happens when the air is forced to move from low elevation to high elevation due to rising terrain. This causes the air to cool adiabatically. This increases the relative humidity and causes clouds to form, under certain conditions it can also create precipitation.
