Answer:
The fireman will continue to descend, but with a constant speed.
Explanation:
In kinetic friction <em>(which is the case discussed here) </em>since the fireman is already in motion because of a certain force, once the frictional force matches the normal force, the fireman will stop accelerating and continue moving at a constant rate with the original speed he had. We will need a force greater than the normal force acting on the fireman to cause a deceleration.
We need to understand the difference between static friction and kinetic friction.
Static friction occurs in objects that are stationary, while kinetic friction occurs in objects that are already in motion.
In static friction, when the frictional force matches the weight or normal force of the object, the object remains stationary.
While in kinetic friction, when the frictional force matches the normal force, the object will stop accelerating. This is the case of the fireman sliding down the pole as discussed above.
Answer:
(35 N - 10 N)/8kg = 3.125 m/s^2
Explanation:
The formula for Force is:
Force = Mass*Acceleration
(Force is equal to Mass times Acceleration)
Since we're told to find the acceleration of the box. We make acceleration the subject of the equation:
Acceleration = Force/Mass
(Acceleration equal to Force divided by Mass)
We know that the force are 35 N forward and 10 N backward, and the weight of the box is 8kg.
= (35 N - 10 N)/8kg
The reason that 35 N minus 10 N is because the 10 N is pushing the box backward.
= 25 N/8kg
= 3.125 m/s^2
Hope it helps :DD
Answer:
Hans Christian Oersted began a new scientific epoch when he discovered that electricity and magnetism are linked. He showed by experiment that an electric current flowing through a wire could move a nearby magnet. The discovery of electromagnetism set the stage for the eventual development of our modern technology-based world.
Explanation:
Answer:
A : hot and moist, maritime tropical
B: cold and dry, maritime polar
C: hot and moist , maritime tropical
D: cold and dry, continental polar
E: hot and moist , maritime tropical
F: cold and dry , maritime polar
Explanation:
Cold air is denser than warm air. The more water vapor that is in the air, the less dense the air becomes. That is why cold, dry air is much heavier than warm, humid air.
Maritime polar (mP) air masses are cool, moist, and unstable. Some maritime polar air masses originate as continental polar air masses over Asia and move westward over the Pacific, collecting warmth and moisture from the ocean.
Maritime tropical (mT) air masses are warm, moist, and usually unstable.
