Hi there!

For an object to have a constant velocity, the SUM of the forces must equal 0. This means that the forces are balanced.

When a car is accelerating downhill, it is experiencing a force due to gravity of F = MgsinФ.

In order to balance the forces, there must be an equal and OPPOSITE force acting on the object. This would be a force of kinetic friction.

Thus:

∑F = -F (Kinetic Friction) + MgsinФ

0 = -F (Kinetic Friction) + MgsinФ

MgsinФ = F (Kinetic Friction)

Thus, the force of Kinetic Friction = -3674 N

(Negative indicates in the opposite direction)

Gemiola [76]

Answer:

Please find the answer in the explanation

Explanation:

Friction is a force that opposes motion. One or two of the advantages of friction are break and ability of an object to walk.

Writing yes it is useful because when your writing because friction helps you see what your writing

ii. Rubbing. Yes, it is useful.

friction make it possible for two object to rub each other

iii. Skiing. No. It is not useful because With presence of friction, skiing will not be possible.

iv. Rotating a wheel No. It is not useful because Friction will oppose the rotation of the wheel.

Why is honesty especially important in a scientist when the results of an experiment go against predictions❓❔
kramer
Because other scientists and science in general rely on their collegues' research which in turn allows development of our knowledge on the given subject. The more dont-to-earth reason may be safety. If someone performs an experiment without knowledge of its true results it might result in some danger to the safety of those perforning it without knowledge of all the risks.

Sati [7]

The question is missing alternatives. Here is the complete question.

An infrared spectrometer on Dawn found something unexpected on Ceres's surface. Its presence suggested that Ceres might have formed farther from the Sun, or been impacted by objects from a more-distant part of the solar system. What was this finding?

1. The fact that Ceres is covered with small dark particles  that appear identical to the composition of Uranus's rings.

2. The presence of a thick cloud layer made of sulfuric acid, similar to what is observed at Venus.

3. The presence of clay-like minerals with ammonia bound up in them.

4. The infrared spectrum of Ceres's surface is essentially identical to that of most objects in the Kuiper Belt.

Answer: 3. The presence of clay-like minerals with ammonia bound up in them.

Explanation: The discovery of ammonia clay-like minerals in Ceres is surprising because it would be encoutered in planets that are far from the Sun, since ammonia requires colder temperatures, which is found beyond Jupiter's orbit, to condense. This finding can ascertain not only the origins of the dwarf planet as how the solar system was formed, were organized and evolved, because understanding where smaller planets are formed is important to determine their destiny.
