Physics

Answer:

Frictional force is produced when two bodies are rubbed against each other. It is the force that oppose the motion and therefore it stops or slow down a moving body.It depends upon the roughness or smoothness of the surface of the body in contact.Rough surface have more friction that the smooth surface. Similarly, the heavier body produces more friction than a lighter body. Frictional force acts in the opposite direction of the motion of the body.

When refrigeration can’t work how does the molecules work to keep it cool
Simora [160]
The compressor constricts the refrigerant vapor, raising its pressure, and pushes it into the coils on the outside of the refrigerator. 2. When the hot gas in the coils meets the cooler air temperature of the kitchen, it becomes a liquid. ... The refrigerant absorbs the heat inside the fridge, cooling down the air.

Earth's gravitational force just got three times stronger! What happens to your weight?
kicyunya [14]

Your "weight" is the name you give to that gravitational force.
So your question actually says:

           "Your weight just got three times stronger !
             What happens to your weight ?"

 why are waves faster in liquids and gases than in air
Alika [10]

Answer:

Sound travels faster in liquids than in gases because molecules are packed more closely together. This means that when the water molecules begin to vibrate, they quickly begin to collide with each other forming a rapidly moving compression wave. Sound travels over four times faster than in air

a vector has an x-component of 19.5m and a y-component of 28.4m. Find the magnitude and direction of the vector
Delicious77 [7]

Answer:

magnitude=34.45 m

direction=55.52\°

Explanation:

Assuming the initial point P1 of this vector is at the origin:

P1=(X1,Y1)=(0,0)

And knowing the other point is P2=(X2,Y2)=(19.5,28.4)

We can find the magnitude and direction of this vector, taking into account a vector has a initial and a final point, with an x-component and a y-component.

For the magnitude we will use the formula to calculate the distance d between two points:

d=\sqrt{{(Y2-Y1)}^{2} +{(X2-X1)}^{2}} (1)

d=\sqrt{{(28.4 m - 0 m)}^{2} +{(19.5 m - 0m)}^{2}} (2)

d=\sqrt{1186.81 m^{2}} (3)

d=34.45 m (4) This is the magnitude of the vector

For the direction, which is the measure of the angle the vector makes with a horizontal line, we will use the following formula:

tan \theta=\frac{Y2-Y1}{X2-X1}  (5)

tan \theta=\frac{24.8 m - 0m}{19.5 m - 0m}  (6)

tan \theta=\frac{24.8}{19.5}  (7)

Finding \theta:

\theta= tan^{-1}(\frac{24.8}{19.5})  (8)

\theta= 55.52\°  (9) This is the direction of the vector
