1). Walking / Driving
If there were no static friction between the soles of your shoes and the ground, then you could move your feet back and forth but your body would never go anywhere.
Same for using tires to move a car, a bus, a bicycle or a motorcycle.
2). Sleeping
If there were no static friction between your jammies and the sheet, you would slide right off of the bed whenever there was the slightest breeze of air in the room.
<span>Answer:
So it gets to the top of the ramp and stops. The parallel force pushing it down the ramp is mg sin θ, but for it to move, the frictional force must be overcome. This frictional force is μmg cos θ, where μ is the coefficient of static friction. For movement, then,
mg sin θ > μmg cos θ ==> tan θ > μ ==> θ > arctan 0.5 = 26.565° ==> θ = 27°</span>
Answer:
During convection, hot material expands & rises then moves to the side and cools & sinks. this circular pattern is called a convection current.
Explanation:
Convection is one of the three methods of transfer of heat. It occurs only in fluids (liquids or gases).
Convection occurs when there is a source of heat that heats a fluid, such as in a boiling pot of water. The water which is on the bottom of the pot becomes warmer before than the water at the top (because it is closer to the flame), and so it becomes less dense: for this reason, it expands and it becomes rising. On the contrary, the water on top is colder, so it is more dense and starts sinking, replacing the warmer water. As the new part of water gets warmer, it starts rising, and so the process is continuously repeated. This circular current is called convection current.
Newtons first law of motion is also known as the law of inertia
