Answer:
To increase kinetic friction, the amount of fine water droplets sprayed before the game is limited.
To reduce kinetic friction. increase the amount of fine water droplets during pregame preparation and sweeping in front of the curling stones.
Explanation:
In curling sports, since the ice sheets are flat, the friction on the stone would be too high and the large smooth stone would not travel half as far. Thus controlling the amount of fine water droplets sprayed before the game is limited pregame is necessary to increase friction.
On the other hand, reducing ice kinetic friction involves two ways. The first way is adding bumps to the ice which is known as pebbling. Fine water droplets are sprayed onto the flat ice surface. These droplets freeze into small "pebbles", which the curling stones "ride" on as they slide down the ice. This increases contact pressure which lowers the friction of the stone with the ice. As a result, the stones travel farther, and curl less.
The second way to reduce the kinetic friction is sweeping in front of the large smooth stone. The sweeping action quickly heats and melts the pebbles on the ice leaving a film of water. This film reduces the friction between the stone and ice.
Answer:
45km/hr
Explanation:
Total distance=450km
Total speed=50km/hr
Total time= distance/speed
=450/50
=9hrs
distance a=180km
speed a=60km/hr
Time a=180/60
=3hrs
Distance b=450-180=270km
Speed b=?
Time b=270/speed b
Total time=time a + time b
9=3+(270/speed b)
270/speed b =9-3
270/speed b =6
6*speed b =270
Speed b=270/6
Speed b=45km/hr
Answer:
If there is any sheets or padded material in this room you can cover the window, you could turn off all the lights if there is a light switch in the room, you could try to bring a bright flashlight in and shine it into the other room(try to annoy the person watching you so they leave), act really boring and hopefully make the other person lose interest.
Explanation:
(hint) If you actually get in a situation like this place your fingernail against the mirror or glass you think could possibly be a one-way mirror. If there's a gap between your nail and the mirror, it's most likely a genuine mirror :)
Answer:
Column X. Tangential Speed
Column Y. radius
Explanation:
The equation for centripetal acceleration is
= v² / r
Where v is the tangential velocity of the body and the radius of curvature.
To analyze this equation you must place the tangential velocity in one column and in the other the turning radius
Let's check the answers
Column X. Tangential Speed
Column Y. radius
This is the correct answer.
Answer:
μ = 0.692
Explanation:
In order to solve this problem, we must make a free body diagram and include the respective forces acting on the body. Similarly, deduce the respective equations according to the conditions of the problem and the directions of the forces.
Attached is an image with the respective forces:
A summation of forces on the Y-axis is performed equal to zero, in order to determine the normal force N. this summation is equal to zero since there is no movement on the Y-axis.
Since the body moves at a constant speed, there is no acceleration so the sum of forces on the X-axis must be equal to zero.
The frictional force is defined as the product of the coefficient of friction by the normal force. In this way, we can calculate the coefficient of friction.
The process of solving this problem can be seen in the attached image.
