What is the main reason people and bears slip and fall on ice, be careful when outside in the snow/ice.

Physics
1 answer:
Ket [755]3 years ago
8 0

Answer:

Both ice and snow have a lower coefficient of friction in comparison with grass, wood or pavement.

Explanation:

The main reason why people and bears, slip and fall on ice/snow is that both ice and snow have a lower coefficient of friction in comparison with grass, wood or pavement. We present below a comparative chart of coefficients of friction associated with different materials:

Material       Coefficient of Friction - Static                  

Ice/Snow                   0.05 - 0.3

Wood                          0.2 - 0.6

Asphalt                        0.5 - 0.7

Grass                            0.3 - 0.5

Dovator [93]

Answer:

m = 45 kg

Explanation:

Given that,

Mass of Jadan, m = 45 kg on Earth

Jupiter has more gravity than the Earth.

Mass of an object is the amount of matter contained inside an object. We need to tell about the mass of Jaden on Jupiter. The mass of the object remains same everywhere.It does not change in any of the location.

Hence, Jaden's mass will be 45 kg on Jupiter.

How does the resistance change as you add bulbs to a series circuit? The resistance does not change. The resistance decreases. T
Anon25 [30]
Light bulbs are loads, so they have a certain amount of resistance associated with them. In series, Resistance total = R1 +R2 +R3...
So the more resistance you add, the more resistance there is! Therefore, the resistance increases!

Weekend A<br> Assignment<br> Differentiate between forced and damped oscillation
4vir4ik [10]

Answer:

A damped oscillation means an oscillation that fades away with time while Forced oscillations occur when an oscillating system is driven by a periodic force that is external to the oscillating system.

Explanation:

Damping is the reduction in amplitude (energy loss from the system) due to overcomings of external forces like friction or air resistance and other resistive forces. ... When a body oscillates by being influenced by an external periodic force, it is called forced oscillation.
