While working on some home repairs with his uncle, a student helps cut the wood. After the cut is made, she blows off the dust and feels the heat coming up from the wood onto her face. She also smells a slight burning smell. The student asks her uncle, "why did it get so hot?" and her uncle responds with one word: friction. Explain why the blade and wood became so hot while cutting. In your response, be sure to include:

1. A definition of friction.

2. How friction changes the temperature of substances.

3. How the width of the blade and depth of the cut would affect the amount of heat produced and why.

Be sure to consider the completeness of your response, supporting details, and accurate use of terms.

Aspring with a mass of 2 kg has a damping constant 14 kg/s. a force of 3.6 n is required to keep the spring stretched 0.3 m beyond its natural length. the spring is stretched 0.6 m beyond its natural length and then released. find the position of the mass at any time t. (assume that movement to the right is the positive x-direction and the spring is attached to a wall at the left end.)

Aperson gives a shopping cart an initial push along a horizontal floor to get it moving, and then lets go. the cart travels forward along the floor, gradually slowing as it moves. consider the horizontal force(s) on the cart while it is moving forward and slowing. which of the following statements is correct? (a) both a forward and a backward force are acting on the cart, but the forward force is larger. (b) only a forward force is acting which diminishes with time. (c) both a forward and a backward force are acting on the cart, but the backward force is larger. (d) only a backward force is acting, no forward force.
