<u>Answer:</u>
<em>A water strider can walk along the surface of earth due to the surface tension of water.
</em>
<u>Explanation:</u>
Fluids have a <em>tendency to shrink to minimum possible surface area</em> and this is called surface tension. It usually occurs due to the greater force of cohesion between molecules of same substance when compared to adhesive force between molecules of different substances. Objects with greater densities can float along water surface due to the <em>role played by surface tension.
</em>
When insects walk along the water surface they are pulled down due to gravity. But the force of attraction between the legs of the insect and water molecules is minimal. Thus the surface tension would always tend to maintain the <em>flatness of water overcoming</em> the push by the legs of the strider.
When the insect’s weight pulls it down , the surface tension pushes it upwards overcoming this force of gravity. This is how<em> water striders move along the surface of water. </em>

Answer:
1. True WA > WB > WC
Explanation:
In this exercise they give work for several different configurations and ask that we show the relationship between them, the best way to do this is to calculate each work separately.
A) Work is the product of force by distance and the cosine of the angle between them
WA = W h cos 0
WA = mg h
B) On a ramp without rubbing
Sin30 = h / L
L = h / sin 30
WB = F d cos θ
WB = F L cos 30
WB = mf (h / sin30) cos 30
WB = mg h ctan 30
C) Ramp with rubbing
W sin 30 - fr = ma
N- Wcos30 = 0
W sin 30 - μ W cos 30 = ma
F = W (sin30 - μ cos30)
WC = mg (sin30 - μ cos30) h / sin30
Wc = mg (1 - μ ctan30) h
When we review the affirmation it is the work where there is rubbing is the smallest and the work where it comes in free fall at the maximum
Let's review the claims
1. True The work of gravity is the greatest and the work where there is friction is the least
2 False. The job where there is friction is the least
3 False work with rubbing is the least
4 False work with rubbing is the least
Answer:
When the velocity doesn't change its direction
Explanation:
Since velocity vector has 2 components: direction and magnitude, and speed is the velocity's magnitude. So if the velocity doesn't change its direction, we essentially use its magnitude, aka speed, to calculate the rate of change for acceleration.
