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.

Torque can be best described as which of the following? Give an example of both a force and a torque and explain why in a couple
kicyunya [14]

Answer: rotational force

Explanation:

Torque is the twisting force which cause rotation and the axis of rotation is the point at which the object rotates.

Torque is a rotational force as it leads to the rotation of an object about an axis. Force simply means a pull or push. When an unbalanced ball acts on a force, the ball, the ball will be moved towards the linear motion.

Then, the unbalanced force that is acting in the ball produces torque which causes the ball's rotational motion.
