What is a physical property describes how smooth the surface of an object is?
The physical property that describes how smooth the surface of an object is called "texture". Texture refers to the feel or appearance of a surface, whether it is rough, smooth, bumpy, or uneven.
What physical property describes how smooth the surface of an object is?
Smooth Texture
What part of an object follows a smooth path when the object is made to spin through the air or across a flat smooth surface?
The center of mass of the object follows a smooth path when it spins through the air or across a flat smooth surface.
Does it matter how smooth or rough an object is to determine the amount of friction applied to an object?
yes a object will have less surface area than if it is smooth
Why do smooth surface produce less friction than rough surfaces?
Because there is less traction for an object to grab onto on a smooth surface rather than when an object runs over a rough surface.
Which property of an object can be describe as smooth?
The surface texture of an object can be described as smooth. Smooth surfaces have a lack of roughness or unevenness, giving them a sleek and even feel.
Is greater force needed to move an object over a smooth surface than over a rough surface?
No, greater force is typically needed to move an object over a rough surface compared to a smooth surface. This is because the irregularities on a rough surface create more friction, making it harder to overcome resistance and move the object. Smooth surfaces offer less resistance to movement.
Why does a smooth object glide when rubbed over a smooth surface?
Because if there are no rough edges then there is less resistance.
Why do smooth surfaces produce less friction than rough surfaces?
Because there is less traction for an object to grab onto on a smooth surface rather than when an object runs over a rough surface.
What must be true of the surface of an object for it to reflect an entire object?
it must be smooth
When all the light rays are reflected at the same angle because of a smooth surface you see?
You see a clear reflection of the object's image on the smooth surface.
Why do the shells of a wind turbine have to be very smooth?
The smooth surface reduces air resistance, which helps the turbine rotate more efficiently. A smooth surface also reduces noise and vibrations from air flow, contributing to the overall performance and longevity of the turbine.
