When friction slows a sliding block___

Physics
1 answer:
Svetradugi [14.3K]2 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.

Light traveling through air at 3.00 · 10^8 m/s reaches an unknown medium and slows down to 2.00 · 10^8 m/s. What is the index of
nataly862011 [7]
V 1= 3.00 · 10^8 m/s
v 2 = 2.00 · 10^8 m/s
The index of refraction:
n = v 1 / v 2 = 3.00 · 10^8 m/s : 2.00 · 10^8 m/s = 1.5
Answer:
The index of refraction of that medium is 1.5

The appropriate response is a Surface wave. It is a seismic wave that goes over the surface of the Earth rather than through it. Surface waves as a rule have bigger amplitudes and longer wavelengths than body waves, and they travel more gradually than body waves do. Adore waves and Rayleigh waves are sorts of surface waves.

When a rope is wrapped around a wheel (or pulley) and pulled, the lever arm is the ________ Blank 1 of the wheel and the angle b
m_a_m_a [10]

Answer:

the DISTANCE between the lever arm and the force is always 90º

Explanation:

In this exercise, you are asked to complete the missing words so that the phrase makes sense.

note that the torque is

              τ = F x r

where bold indicates vectors

When the rope is pulled, the DISTANCE between the lever arm and the force is always 90º
