Does rubber have a high heat capacity?
No, rubber has a relatively low heat capacity compared to other materials. It does not easily absorb and store heat energy, and it also has a low thermal conductivity. As a result, rubber does not retain heat well and is not an ideal material for applications that require high heat capacity.
Why rubber is vulcanized?
Rubber is vulcanised to make it more stable and durable by adding sulphur at a high temperature. Vulcanization generates many sulfur-bond cross links between the rubber molecules, hardening the rubber and making it more elastic. Without these bonds rubber is a sticky gooey jelly like material.
Which surface friction is the highest carpet plastic wood marble?
carpet has the most fictionThis cannot be answered really. Friction requires 2 surfaces in contact with each other . Rubber on Wood, has a high coefficient of friction, but plastic on wood has a low coefficient of friction. You must state , the make of the material you are going to use to slide over the Carpet, or Plastic, or Wood. Also , different types of carpet or plastic or wood will have very different friction coefficients. Example Nylon carpet is very easy to slide things along, but wool or cotton carpet is a very different story. There are many types of plastic which are rubbery in nature and they offer a lot of frictional resistance.
What material can be hit without shattering?
A malleable material could be hit without being shattered, it would only flex or bend out of shape.
2 ways to increase friction?
find a materials with a high coefficient of static friction and use them against each other ( like rubber dry concrete ) and bound them to the object and the surface it rests on. Increase the normal force by adding mass on the object or applying a perpendicular force to the surface of the object.

Why does rubber erase pencil?
Rubber has a high co-efficient of friction.
What is a material that has a high resistance?
Diamond, rubber, plastic, styrofoam, ice, wood, glass, paper, concrete.
Is the rubber grip of a bike handlebar high friction or low friction?
it gets hot
Do rubber tyres show more friction or less friction?
Rubber will have a high coefficient of friction on most surfaces, but we cannot know whether there is more or less friction unless we have something to compare it to.
What are examples of low friction materials?
Some examples of relatively high friction surfaces are: sand paper, grass, and asphalt. In general, the rougher the surface, the more friction it has.
Jill is climbing where does she need high friction?
On her feet and hands. That is why they build climbing shoes from sticky rubber. Her belay partner will need friction in their belay device (ATC OR GRI GRI, etc)
What is the principal material used in glass glass?
Sand heated to a very high temperature.
How does a car tire get worn away by friction?
The heat from the friction of the tire rolling at a high speed on the street causes the rubber to slowly burn up.
What objects causes high friction?
Carpet Fridge door Skateboard Sandpaper Nail filler Rubber
Will a ball of glass Bounce higer then a ball of Rubber?
it is scientifically proven that a ball of glass bounces higher than a ball of rubber. No cause the glass would break if you drop it to high and the rubber one would not ! It depends on wether or not your counting the height the shards fly up.
What would make a good electrical?
An electrical insulator is a material whose internal electric charges do not flow freely. Rubber, glass, paper, and Teflon, which have high resistivity, are very good electrical insulators.
