Answer:

Explanation:

Friction is defined as a force which acts at the surface of separation between two objects in contact and tends to oppose motion of one over the other.

While kinetic friction is the force that must be overcome so that a body can move with uniform speed over another.

Hence let consider one of the laws of friction which states that: '' Frictional force is independent of the area of the surfaces in contact.''

The value did not vary with area. This is because when calculating the kinetic fiction, the total contact area is not relevant and only the total weight of the system as well of as the block is put into consideration.

Suppose that, instead of the Coulomb force law, one finds experimentally that the force between any two charge q1 and q2 is Writ

Answer: E= KQ/r^2

Explanation: An electric field is a region where an electric charge(positive or negative ) will experience a force.

The magnitude of an electric field E, at a point is given by Coulombs law as

E/ F/q

Where F= Coulombs force exertedon the charge and q= electric charge

E= F/q=(KQq)/r^2q

E=KQ/r^2

What is the final temperature when a 3.0 kg gold bar at 99 0C is dropped into 0.22 kg of water at 25oC?

slavikrds [6]

I will post my work, but is that 99 degrees Celsius and 25 degrees Celsius?

All you have to do is plug in the initial temperature for gold where it says Tg and the initial temperature for the water where it says Tw and then plug that in and you will have your answer.
