If the mass of an object increases, predict what will happen to the coefficient of sliding friction.

1 answer:

8 0

The coefficient of sliding friction will decrease. When mass increases the acceleration deceases, when acceleration/sliding motion decreases, the friction opposing motion will also decrease.

Gemiola [76]

Answer:

Static friction is what keeps the box from moving without being pushed, and it must be overcome with a sufficient opposing force before the box will move. Kinetic friction (also referred to as dynamic friction) is the force that resists the relative movement of the surfaces once they're in motionExplanation:

Suppose Joe, who can type 40 words per minute, takes 2.5 hours to type his report. To speed things up, his friend Mark offers to

Vika [28.1K]

Explanation:

When Joe works alone, the total number of words he typed can be given by:

Total words = (40 words per minute) x (60 minutes per hour) x (2.5 hours)

Total words = 6000 words

Now, when Joe and Mark work together, let 'y' be the number of hours for which they both work simultaneously:

Total words = Words Typed by Joe + Words Typed by Mark

6000 = {(40 words per minute) x (60 minutes per hours) x (y hours)} + {(20 words per minute) x (60 minutes per hours) x (y hours)}

6000 = 2400y + 1200y = 3600y

y = 1.67 hours = 1 hour and 40 minutes

Thus, working together simultaneously, Joe and Mark will take 1 hour and 40 minutes to complete the report.

A circuit consists of a battery connected to three resistors (65 ω, 25ω, and 170ω) in parallel. the total current through the re

White raven [17]

A. To find the total emf of the battery, just remember that in a parallel circuit, the voltage is the same throughout the circuit. So you can get the total voltage of the circuit by using Ohm's Law.

$I= \frac{V}{R}$

Where:
I = current (A)
V = Voltage (V) (emf)
R = Resitance (Ω)

Now you can derive the formula of Voltage by transposing the Resistance to the other side of the equation to isolate Voltage. The formula you will now use will be:
$V = IR$

However, you cannot solve this yet because the resistance you need is the total resistance in the circuit. To do this, you need to get the total resistance in this parallel circuit and the formula would be:

$\frac{1}{R_{T}} = \frac{1}{R_{1}}+ \frac{1}{R_{2}}+ \frac{1}{R_{3}}...+ \frac{1}{R_{n}}$

You have three resistors with the following resistance:
65Ω, 25Ω and 170Ω
$\frac{1}{R_{T}} = \frac{1}{R_{1}}+ \frac{1}{R_{2}}+ \frac{1}{R_{3}}...+ \frac{1}{R_{n}}$

$\frac{1}{R_{T}} = \frac{1}{R_{65}}+ \frac{1}{R_{25}}+ \frac{1}{R_{170}}$

$\frac{1}{R_{T}} =0.0153+0.04+0.006+0.0059$
$\frac{1}{R_{T}} =0.0613$

Get the reciprocal of both sides and divide:

$R_{T} = \frac{1}{0.0613} =16.32$

The total resistance then is 16.32Ω

Now that you have the total resistance, you can solve for the total voltage:
$V = IR$
$V = (1.8)(16.32)$
$V = 29.376V$

The emf of the battery is 29.376V

B. To find the resistance in each resistor, just apply Ohm's law again. In a parallel circuit, the voltage is the same, but the current that runs through it is different for each resistor. Now just solve for the current of each using the same voltage.

Resistor 1: 65Ω
$I= \frac{V}{R}$
$I= \frac{29.376}{65}$
$I= 0.45A$

The current flowing through resistor 1 with a resistance of 65Ω is 0.45A.

Resistor 2: 25Ω
$I= \frac{V}{R}$
$I= \frac{29.376}{25}$
$I= 1.18A$
The current flowing through resistor 2 with a resistance of 25Ω is 1.18A.

Resistor 3: 170Ω
$I= \frac{V}{R}$
$I= \frac{29.376}{170}$
$I= 0.17A$

The current flowing through resistor 3 with a resistance of 170Ω is 0.17A.

If you add up all their current it confirms the given that the total current running through all of them is 1.8A.
