How can it be so hard to dragrubber across smooth glass iffriction is caused by surfaceroughness?

Answer»

Friction is not caused mainly by surface roughness. According to the book "Sliding Friction" by Bo N. J. Persson, friction is caused by weak electromagnetic forces between molecules, such as experienced in hydrogen bonds and Van der Waal bonds. If two electrically neutral, non-polar atoms are brought close enough together, they induce electric dipole moments in each other which then attract. These weak bonds cause the two objects with surfaces touching to be attracted, making it hard to slide one object along the other. Additionally, the sliding motion can generate vibrations (phonons) in the objects touching, which takes energy away from the sliding motion and therefore slows down the objects. Because friction is mainly caused by electrical attraction and not surface roughness, smooth objects can still have relatively high friction coefficients. In fact, nanoscopically smooth objects experience very high friction (as long as their chemical structure promotes significant electromagnetic forces) because they have much more of their surface in contact. Surface roughness can become significant if the roughness is very high. The best way to lower the friction of a surface is to combat both. Smooth down the surface to lower surface roughness, and then sprinkle on a lubricant which gets in the way of the chemical bonding, such as oil or graphite.

A wave yra sin (wt - kx) on a string meets withanother wave producing a node at x = 0. Thenthe equation of the unknown wave is :(a) y= a sin (t+kx)(b) y=- a sin (t + kar)(c) y= a sin (wt - kov) elle(d) y=- a sin (wt - kox) Janwavepatten

Answer»

let the other string eqn. be,y = asin(wt + kx)put x=0 in first wave eqn.we get,y = asin(wt)equate both,asin(wt + kx) – asinwt =0a(sin(wt +kx) – sinwt) = 0a cannot be zero.

WE will get -a sin (wt+kx)

-a Sin(wt+kt) is the right answer

Differentiate between static and slidingfriction. Which is greater?

Answer»

Static friction is the friction between two surfaces that are not in relative motion with each other, while Dynamic (aka Kinetic) friction is the friction between two surfaces that are in relative motion with respect to each other.

Static friction is the opposing force which comes into play when two bodies or one body and surface in contact tend to move but the actual motion has not yet started.

Sliding friction is a type of kinetic friction which operates when a body is actually sliding over another surface.

The maximum limit of static friction is called limiting friction . So,the coefficient of static friction is usually more than that of sliding or kinetic friction.

Cooling is produced when a gas at high pressure suddenly expands. Why?

Answer»
9127.

Explain why the internal energy of a compressed gas is less than that of a rarefied gas at the same temperature.

Answer»

When a real gas is compressed, its molecules come closer. Their mutual interactions become stronger. This increases the magnitude of potential energy. But potential energy is negative. Hence the total energy of the compressed gas decreases. However, the kinetic energy is same for both the compressed and rarefied gases as both are at the same temperatures.

An ideal gas is compressed in a closed container its U

Answer»

In general, if we compress a gas, the temperature of that gas will increase. The compression increases the pressure of the gas. There is a bit more, depending on how an investigator choses to look at the problem. If the pressure remains constant and the volume goes down, the temperature goes down.

9. A ball is dropped from a high rise platform at t 0starting from rest. After 6 seconds another ball isthrown downwards from the same platform with aspeed 'v'. The two balls meet at t 18 s. What is thevalue of v?[AIPMT 2010](1) 75 m/s(3) 40 m/s(2) 55 m/s(4) 60 m/s

Answer»

Distance between the two balls after 6 secs = ½ * 10 * 62= 180

Relative velocity of second ball(wrt first ball) so that it can cover this distance = 180/ 12 = 15m/s

Velocity of first ball (at t= 6) = 10* 6 = 60

v= 60 + 15 =75m/s
