A car driving along a highway at a speed of 22.9 m/s strays onto the shoulder. Evenly spaced parallel grooves called "rumble strips" are carved into the pavement of the shoulder. Rolling over the ru
Explain how this happens at an atomic level, taking into account what a current is, the opposite charges in an atom and how ionization occurs.
When a ball rolls down a incline plane it gains speed,because of gravity,when rolling up it losees speed because of gravity. Why doesn't gravity play a role when it rolls on a horizontal surface?
Ashlee pulls Andy on a skateboard. Ashlee pulls with a force of 52.2N to get it moving and 42.0N to keep it at a constant velosity. The mass of the skateboard and Andy are 75.0-kg. What is the Coeff
