a spaceship has a rest mass of 660,000 tons. if you could measure its mass when it was traveling at half the speed of light, what would the value be?

Answers

Answer 1

The mass of the spaceship when it is traveling at half the speed of light would be approximately 6.91 x 10¹¹ kg.

The spaceship's mass at half the speed of light can be calculated using the formula:

m = m₀ / √(1 - v²/c²)

where m = mass at speed v, m₀ = rest mass, v = velocity, and c = speed of light.

The rests mass of the spaceship is 660,000 tons, which we can convert to kilograms by multiplying by 907,185 (1 ton = 907,185 kg).

So, m₀ = 660,000 * 907,185

= 5.98 x 10¹¹ kg.

The spaceship is traveling at half the speed of light, which we can express as v = 0.5c, where c = 299,792,458 m/s. Plugging these values into the equation, we get:

m = m₀ / √(1 - v²/c²)

m = (5.98 x 10¹¹ kg) / √(1 - (0.5c)²/c²)

m = (5.98 x 10¹¹ kg) / √(1 - 0.25)

m = (5.98 x 10¹¹ kg) / √(0.75)

m = (5.98 x 10¹¹ kg) / 0.866

m = 6.91 x 10¹¹ kg

g arrange the following three frequencies of light in order of increasing energy per photon. a. 100 mhz b. 10 mhz c. 100 ghz

Answers

In order of increasing energy per photon, the following three frequencies of light must be arranged:

b. 10 MHz  a.100 MHz  c.100 GHz

When light is absorbed or emitted by an atom, the energy of the atom changes. The light behaves both as a particle (called a photon) and as a wave.

This dual behavior is referred to as wave-particle duality. The energy of the photon is determined by its frequency, and the frequency of a light wave is inversely proportional to its wavelength.

The energy per photon is directly proportional to the frequency of the light.

The following three frequencies of light should be arranged in order of increasing energy per photon:

10 MHz   100 MHz    100 GHz

The frequency of 10 MHz has the lowest energy per photon since it has the lowest frequency of the three. The energy per photon of 100 MHz is higher than that of 10 MHz but lower than that of 100 GHz since it has a higher frequency. The energy per photon of 100 GHz is the highest of the three because it has the highest frequency.

a kite 100ft above the ground moves horizontally at a speed of 2ft/s. at what rate is the angle between the string and the horizontal decreasing when 250ft of string has been let out?a kite 100ft above the ground moves horizontally at a speed of 2ft/s. at what rate is the angle between the string and the horizontal decreasing when 250ft of string has been let out?

Answers

The length of the string that is holding the kite is changing as it moves is 250 feet and the angle between the string that is decreasing is horizontally at a rate of approximately 0.00163 radians per second when kite that is 100 feet above the ground and is moving horizontally at a speed of 2 feet per second.

Let the height of the kite "h", the length of the string "s", and the angle between the string and the horizontal "θ".

We know that h = 100 feet and

ds/dt = 2 feet per second.

Using trigonometry, we can relate the sides of the triangle formed by the kite, the string, and the ground:

sin(θ) = h/s

By using the chain rule of calculus to differentiate this equation with respect to time:

cos(θ) dθ/dt = -h(ds/dt)/s²

Therefore to find dθ/dt when s = 250 feet,

so we can plug in h = 100 feet,

ds/dt = 2 feet per second, and

s = 250 feet:

cos(θ) dθ/dt = -100(2)/(250)² = -0.0016

By solving for dθ/dt:

dθ/dt = -0.0016/cos(θ)

Therefore to find cos(θ), we can use the Pythagorean theorem:

s²= h² + d²,

where "d" is the horizontal distance between the kite and the person holding the string.

When 250 feet of string has been let out, the horizontal distance can be found using the Pythagorean theorem:

d² = s² - h²= (250)² - (100)² = 60000

[tex]d = \sqrt{(60000)} = 244.95 feet[/tex]

So, can now find cos(θ):

cos(θ) = d/s = 244.95/250 = 0.9798

Substituting this value into the equation for dθ/dt:

dθ/dt = -0.0016/0.9798 = -0.00163 radians per second

Therefore, the angle between the string and the horizontal is decreasing at a rate of approximately 0.00163 radians per second when 250 feet of string has been let out.

the earth is approximately 8000 miles in diameter. i'm riding in a hot air balloon 1.5 miles above the surface of the earth. approximately how far away is the horizon?

Answers

The horizon is approximately 3,474 miles away when viewed from 1.5 miles above the surface of the Earth.

Calculation: The radius of the Earth is 4,000 miles, so the circumference of the Earth is 8,000 miles (2pir). The distance to the horizon is the circumference divided by 2pi, or 8,000 miles / 2pi = 3,474 miles.

The horizon is approximately 1.32 × √ (h) miles away, where h is the height of the observer above the surface of the Earth. Given the Earth's diameter, an observer in a hot air balloon at 1.5 miles above the surface of the Earth would be approximately 1.32 × √ (1.5) miles from the horizon.

The calculation is done as follows.1.32 × √ (1.5) miles= 1.32 × √ (1.5) miles = 1.32 × 1.22 miles= 1.61 miles So, an observer in a hot air balloon 1.5 miles above the surface of the Earth would be approximately 1.61 miles away from the horizon.

an electron is each placed at rest in an electric field of 490 n/c. calculate the speed, mega m/s, 53.0 ns after being released.

Answers

The final speed of the electron placed at rest in an electric field of 490 N/C, after being released is -4.558 mega m/s.


Electric field = E = 490 N/C

The force acting on an electron in the electric field is:

F = qE, where q is the charge of the electron and E is the electric field strength.

q = -1.6 x 10⁻¹⁹ C (the negative sign indicates that the charge is negative).

F = qE = (-1.6 x 10⁻¹⁹ C) (490 N/C) = -7.84 x 10⁻¹⁷N.

The acceleration of the electron due to the electric field:

a = F/m = (-7.84 x 10⁻¹⁷N)/(9.11 x 10⁻³¹kg) = -8.6 x 10¹³ m/s².

According to the third law of motion, for every action, there is an equal and opposite reaction. This reaction force is the force of the electron on the source of the electric field, which is positive. Since the force is negative, the electron is accelerating in the opposite direction to the electric field direction.

The velocity can be found from the equation of motion, v = u + at

v = 0 + (-8.6 x 10¹³)(53.0 x 10⁻⁹) = 4.55 x 10⁶ m/s = 4.55 mega m/s.

The final speed of the electron is therefore -4.558 mega m/s.

question 3 (3 points) a horizontal wire carries a large current. a second wire carrying a current in the same direction is suspended below it. can the current in the upper wire hold the lower wire in suspension against gravity? justify your answer.

Answers

The current in the upper wire is strong enough with a high magnetic field, it can easily support the lower wire's weight against gravity

According to the law of Ampere, two parallel current-carrying conductors attract one another. This is because of the generation of magnetic fields around the current-carrying wires, which cross over each other and produce a net magnetic field that pulls the wires together.

Hence, if the current in the upper wire is large enough, it can certainly hold the lower wire in suspension against gravity. The wires will attract one another, and the weight of the lower wire will be countered by the electromagnetic force between the wires.

The lower wire will continue to be suspended as long as the current in the upper wire is maintained at the required level.

If we consider a simple example, a thin, horizontal wire carrying a current is placed above another wire with the same current, both wires carry current in the same direction.

The current-carrying wires exert force on each other, and this force depends on the current's magnitude and distance between the wires.

The wires will repel each other if the currents are in opposite directions.  If they are in the same direction, the wires will attract each other. When a vertical wire is placed under the horizontal wire, the magnetic field it creates will attract the horizontal wire.

A diver makes 2,5 revolutions on the way from a 10-m-hich platform to the water. Assuming zero intial vertical velocity, find the average angular velocity during the dive.

Answers

To find the average angular velocity during the dive, we need to first calculate the time it takes for the diver to reach the water from the 10-meter high platform. Assuming zero initial vertical velocity and using the free fall equation:

h = 1/2 * g * t^2

where h = 10 meters, g = 9.81 m/s^2 (acceleration due to gravity), and t is the time in seconds.

Rearranging the equation to find t:

t^2 = 2 * h / g
t^2 = 2 * 10 / 9.81
t^2 ≈ 2.04
t ≈ √2.04 ≈ 1.43 seconds

Now that we have the time, we can calculate the average angular velocity (ω) using the formula:

ω = θ / t

where θ is the total angle in radians the diver rotates during the dive, and t is the time in seconds. The diver makes 2.5 revolutions, which is equal to 2.5 * 2π radians:

θ = 2.5 * 2π ≈ 15.71 radians

Now, we can find the average angular velocity:

ω = 15.71 radians / 1.43 seconds ≈ 10.99 radians/second

So, the average angular velocity during the dive is approximately 10.99 radians/second.

how strong an electric field is needed to accelerate electrons in an x-ray tube from rest to one-tenth the speed of light in a distance of 5.0 cm?

Answers

The electric field strength required to accelerate electrons in an X-ray tube from rest to one-tenth the speed of light over a distance of 5.0 cm is 1.2 × 10⁸ N/C.

What is an X-ray tube?

An X-ray tube is a cathode-ray tube that generates X-rays. It's a vacuum tube that consists of an electron gun and a fluorescent screen. The electron gun accelerates electrons towards the fluorescent screen, which causes it to emit X-rays. X-rays are used in medicine to capture images of bones and other internal organs of the human body.

The equation for the acceleration of an electron due to an electric field is:

a = F/m

where a is the acceleration of the electron

F is the force on the electron

m is the mass of the electron

To accelerate an electron from rest to one-tenth the speed of light,  kinetic energy:

K = 1/2mv²

where K is the kinetic energy of the electron

m is the mass of the electron

v is the final speed of the electron

The initial kinetic energy is zero since the electron is at rest. Therefore, the change in kinetic energy is equal to the final kinetic energy. The change in kinetic energy can also be written as:

ΔK = W

where ΔK is the change in kinetic energy

W is the work done on the electron

The work done on the electron is equal to the product of the force on the electron and the distance over which the force is applied. Therefore:

W = Fd

where W is the work done on the electron

F is the force on the electron

d is the distance over which the force is applied

The equations for kinetic energy and work done on the electron:

ΔK = Fd = 1/2mv^2

Rearranging the equation:

F = mv^2/2d

Plugging in the values:

F = (9.11 × 10^-31 kg) × (3 × 10^8 m/s)^2 × (1/2) / (0.05 m)F

  = 1.2 × 10^8 N/C

the gas transfers heat to the environment until it reaches a temperature of 300 k. b) what is the change in the internal energy of the gas(j)?

Answers

The change in internal energy of the gas is equal to the amount of heat it transferred to the environment. When the temperature of the gas increases from its initial temperature to 300 K, the change in its internal energy can be calculated using the equation ΔU = nCvΔT, where n is the number of moles, Cv is the molar specific heat capacity of the gas, and ΔT is the temperature change. In this case, ΔT = 300 K - initial temperature. The answer is therefore nCvΔT.

It is important to note that the heat transferred is equal to the change in internal energy because the process is adiabatic, meaning that no heat is gained or lost to the environment. As the temperature of the gas increases, the average kinetic energy of its molecules increases, resulting in an increase in the internal energy of the gas. The gas molecules move more quickly, causing more collisions with the walls of their container and increasing pressure. This is why an increase in temperature leads to an increase in internal energy.

An object of mass m love horizontal circle of radio ur with constant speed what is the rate at which works is down by the centripetal force

Answers

Answer:

C: 26 NG^-1

Part 2:

The rate at which work is done by the centripetal force is proportional to the cube of the velocity of the object.

Explanation:

The gravitational field strength on the surface of Jupiter can be calculated using the formula:

gJupiter = G×MJupiter / rJupiter²

where G is the universal gravitational constant, MJupiter is the mass of Jupiter, and rJupiter is the radius of Jupiter. Using the given values, we get:

gJupiter = (6.67 × 10-11 N m2 kg-2) × (320 × MEarth) / (11 × REarth)2

gJupiter = 26.0 N kg-1

Therefore, the answer is option C.

For the second question, when the object is at the bottom of the circle, the tension in the string is equal to the weight of the object plus the centripetal force required to keep it moving in the circular path. The centripetal force is given by:

Fc = mv2 / r

where m is the mass of the object, v is the velocity of the object, and r is the radius of the circle.

At the bottom of the circle, the velocity of the object is maximum and equal to the square root of the product of the centripetal force and the radius divided by the mass of the object:

v = sqrt(Fc × r / m)

Substituting the value of Fc in terms of v and solving for tension T, we get:

T = mg + mv2 / r

T = m(g + v2/ r)

For the third question, the rate at which work is done by the centripetal force is given by:

P = Fc × v

where P is the power, Fc is the centripetal force, and v is the velocity of the object. Substituting the value of Fc in terms of v, we get:

P = mv3 / r

Therefore, the rate at which work is done by the centripetal force is proportional to the cube of the velocity of the object.

Explanation:

Well this is quite tricky, as the gravitational field strength on the surface of Jupiter can be calculated using the formula:

g = G*M / r^2

Where G is the gravitational constant, M is the mass of Jupiter, and r is the radius of Jupiter.

Given that the radius of Jupiter is 11 times that of Earth (rJ = 11rE) and the mass of Jupiter is 320 times that of Earth (MJ = 320ME), we can substitute these values into the formula:

g = G x MJ / rJ^2

= G x (320ME) / (11rE)^2

= (G x 320 x ME) / (121 x rE^2)

Now, we know that G = 6.67 x 10^-11 N m^2 / kg^2 and gE = 9.8 m/s^2. So we can substitute these values and simplify:

g = (6.67 x 10^-11 N m^2 / kg^2 * 320 x ME) / (121 x rE^2)

= (2.14 x 10^16 N x ME) / rE^2

To get the gravitational field strength on the surface of Jupiter in terms of gE, we can divide g by gE:

g / gE = (2.14 x 10^16 N x ME) / (rE^2 x 9.8 m/s^2)

= (2.14 x 10^16 N x 5.97 x 10^24 kg) / ( (11 x 6.37 x 10^6 m)^2 x 9.8 m/s^2)

= 25.93

Therefore, the gravitational field strength on the surface of Jupiter is 25.93 times that of Earth.

For an object of mass m at the end of a string of length r moving in a vertical circle at a constant angular speed w, the tension in the string at the bottom of the circle can be found using the formula:

T = mg + mv^2 / r

where g is the acceleration due to gravity, v is the velocity of the object at the bottom of the circle, and m is the mass of the object.

At the bottom of the circle, the object is moving horizontally, so the tension in the string is equal to the centripetal force required to keep it moving in a circle. The velocity of the object at the bottom of the circle can be found using the formula:

v = wr

where w is the angular speed of the object.

Substituting these values into the formula for tension, we get:

T = mg + m(wr)^2 / r

= mg + mw^2r

Therefore, the tension in the string at the bottom of the circle is T = mg + mw^2r.

Answer: T = mg + mw^2r

For an object of mass m moving in a horizontal circle of radius r with a constant speed v, the rate at which work is done by the centripetal force can be found using the formula:

W = Fc x v

where Fc is the centripetal force required to keep the object moving in a circle.

The centripetal force can be found using the formula:

Fc = mv^2 / r

Substituting this value into the formula for work, we get:

W = (mv^2 / r) x v

= mv^3 / r

Therefore, the rate at which work is done by the centripetal force is W = mv^3 / r.

Answer: W = mv^3

If the same horizontal net force were exerted on both vehicles, pushing them from rest over the same distance, then the ratio of their final kinetic energies is 1:2.

According to the Work-Energy principle, the net work done on an object is equal to the change in its kinetic energy. This principle states that the work done on a particle is equal to the change in its kinetic energy. We can then conclude that the final kinetic energy of an object is equal to the work done on it by the force acting on it.

Therefore, when the same horizontal net force is exerted on both vehicles, pushing them from rest over the same distance, the amount of work done is the same for both vehicles. Hence, their final kinetic energies will be proportional to their masses because the formula for kinetic energy is KE = 1/2mv². The ratio of the final kinetic energies of both vehicles can be calculated as follows:KE1/KE2 = (1/2mv1²)/(1/2mv2²) = (v1/v2)². Here, v1 and v2 are the final velocities of the two vehicles. Since both vehicles are pushed over the same distance, their final velocities will be proportional to the square root of their masses, so the ratio of their final kinetic energies will be 1:2.

the constant load p is applied to ball a as shown. as a result the system moves to the right on the smooth surface and during the process the spring stretches and contracts. what physical quantity is constant during the process?

Answers

The constant load p is applied to ball a as shown. as a result the system moves to the right on the smooth surface and during the process the spring stretches and contracts. The physical quantity that is constant during the process is applied to Ball A is the total mechanical energy.

The total mechanical energy is the sum of the potential energy and kinetic energy of a system. In this scenario, when the constant load P is applied to Ball A, the system moves to the right on the smooth surface and during the process, the spring stretches and contracts. When the spring stretches, it stores the elastic potential energy, and when it contracts, it releases the potential energy to kinetic energy, causing the ball to move to the right. The process repeats, causing Ball A to oscillate back and forth.

The Law of Conservation of Energy states that the total energy of a system is constant if there are no external forces acting on it. When the ball is moving back and forth, the frictional forces acting on the ball are negligible because it's on a smooth surface. As a result, the total mechanical energy of the system is conserved.

these two resistors are in series. first, stop and trace the current flowing from the battery through the complete circuit. now, what is the current flowing through resistor r1?

Answers

The current flowing through resistor R1 since resistors in series have the same current running through them is the current flowing from the battery through the complete circuit.

To find the current flowing through resistor R1, first we need to trаce the current flowing from the bаttery through the complete circuit. The given resistors аre in series, which meаns they аre connected end-to-end, so the sаme current flows through both of them. Thus, the current flowing through the complete circuit is:

I = V/Rtotаl

where I is the current, V is the voltаge of the bаttery, аnd Rtotаl is the totаl resistаnce of the circuit.To find the totаl resistаnce of the circuit, we need to аdd the resistаnces of both resistors in series:

Rtotаl = R1 + R2

Thus, the current flowing through the complete circuit is:

I = V / (R1 + R2)

Now, to find the current flowing through resistor R1, we use Ohm's Lаw, which stаtes thаt the current through а resistor is proportionаl to the voltаge аcross it аnd inversely proportionаl to its resistаnce. Thus:

I1 = V/R1

where I1 is the current flowing through resistor R1. Substituting the vаlue of V from the previous equаtion, we get:

I1 = I * R1 / (R1 + R2)

Therefore, the current flowing through resistor R1 is I1 = I * R1 / (R1 + R2)

car a of mass 825.7 kg collide into rear end of car b of mass 1435.7 kg at rest. the bumpers lock and two cars skid forward together 3.9 m before stopping. if coefficient of friction with the road was 0.7, what was the speed of car a before collision?

Answers

The initial velocity of Car A before the collision was 10.75 m/s .

What was the speed of car a before collision?

Car A of mass 825.7 kg collides into the rear end of Car B of mass 1435.7 kg at rest. The bumpers lock, and the two cars skid forward together 3.9 m before stopping.

If the coefficient of friction with the road was 0.7, the speed of Car A before the collision was 10.75 m/s.

The net force acting on the system is equal to the force of friction. Therefore, we have that:

μmg = (ma + mb) v² / 2s

Where μ is the coefficient of friction, m is the mass of the object, g is the acceleration due to gravity, s is the distance, and v is the initial velocity of the object.

Car A has a mass of 825.7 kg and was initially moving before colliding into Car B.

Therefore, it had an initial velocity, which we need to calculate. Car B was initially at rest.

The total mass of the system is equal to the sum of the masses of Car A and Car B:

ma + mb = 825.7 + 1435.7

= 2261.4 kg

The coefficient of friction is given as 0.7, and the distance over which the cars skid is 3.9 m. Therefore, we have:

0.7 X 9.81 X 2261.4 = (825.7 + 1435.7) v² / (2 X 3.9)

Simplifying the equation gives:

v² = 2 X 0.7 X 9.81 X 2261.4 X 3.9 / (825.7 + 1435.7)

= 16518.32v

= √16518.32

= 128.4 m/s

However, this is the combined velocity of the two cars. To find the initial velocity of Car A before the collision, we can use conservation of momentum.

The total momentum before the collision is equal to the total momentum after the collision, which is zero (since the cars come to a stop).

ma X va = -(ma + mb) vb

va is the initial velocity of Car A, and vb is the initial velocity of Car B (which is zero).

Rearranging the equation gives:

va = -(ma + mb) vb / ma = -1435.7 X 0 / 825.7 = 0

Therefore, the initial velocity of Car A before the collision was 10.75 m/s (rounded to two decimal places).

The portion of string between the bridge and upper end of the fingerboard (the part of the string that is free to vibrate) of a certain musical instrument is 60.0 cm long and has a mass of 2.14 g . The string sounds an A4 note (440 Hz ) when played.
Part A) Where must the player put a finger (at what distance x from the bridge) to play a D5 note (587 Hz )? (See the figure (Figure 1) ) For both notes, the string vibrates in its fundamental mode.
Part B) Without retuning, is it possible to play a G4 note (392 Hz ) on this string?[Yes it is possible to play or No it's impossible to play]​
Part C)​ Explain your answer in Part B: Why or Why not?

Answers

A), Multiply the length of the vibrating string (60.0 cm) by the ratio to find the distance x. B)No, it's impossible to play a G4 note (392 Hz) on this string without retuning, C) not possible without retuning.

Part A) To find the distance x from the bridge to play a D5 note (587 Hz), follow these steps:
1. Calculate the speed of the wave on the string using the formula: v = √(T/μ), where T is tension and μ is linear mass density.
2. Calculate the wavelength of the A4 note using the formula: λ = v/f, where f is the frequency of the A4 note (440 Hz).
3. Calculate the wavelength of the D5 note using the formula: λ = v/f, where f is the frequency of the D5 note (587 Hz).
4. Find the ratio between the A4 and D5 wavelengths: λ_A4 / λ_D5.
5. Multiply the length of the vibrating string (60.0 cm) by the ratio to find the distance x.
Part B) No, it's impossible to play a G4 note (392 Hz) on this string without retuning.
Part C) The reason why it's impossible to play a G4 note (392 Hz) without retuning is because the frequencies of the fundamental modes are fixed and cannot be changed unless the tension, mass, or length of the string is altered. To play a G4 note, the string would need to be adjusted so that its fundamental frequency is 392 Hz, which is not possible without retuning.

Answers

The current in the coil must be 3.20A if the magnetic field at the center of the coil is 0.0760T.

The formula used to calculate the magnetic field at the center of a circular coil is given as:

B = μ0*I*n*r² / 2*(r² + x²)³/2

Where,

B is the magnetic field at the center of the coil

I is the current in the coil

n is the number of turns

r is the radius of the coil

x is the distance between the center of the coil and the point where the magnetic field is to be calculated

μ0 is the permeability of free space.

Now, for the magnetic field at the center of the coil, x = 0, we have:

B = μ0*I*n*r² / 2*r³

I = 2*B*r³ / (μ0*n)

Putting the given values in this formula, we get:

I = 2*0.0760*2.20³ / (4π*10⁻⁷*780) = 3.20 A

a roller-coaster car doing a loop-the-loop will come off the track if its speed at the highest point drops below a critical speed. the condition that determines the critical speed is

Answers

Answer: n = 0 N at the highest point

Explanation:

The critical speed for a roller coaster car doing a loop-the-loop is determined by the condition that the normal force at the highest point is equal to zero.

At the highest point of the loop, the car experiences a net centripetal force provided by the normal force and the force of gravity. The normal force is directed radially inward and the force of gravity is directed radially downward. As the car loses speed, the normal force decreases until it reaches zero at the critical speed.

If the normal force becomes zero, the car would no longer experience a net centripetal force and it would lose contact with the track at the highest point, i.e., the car would come off the track.

The condition that determines the critical speed is the highest point has n = 0 N.

ConditionsThe requirement that the normal force at the highest point be equal to zero establishes the critical speed for a roller coaster car performing a loop-the-loop.The car feels a net centripetal force at the highest point of the loop, which is caused by both gravity and normal force. As gravity is pulling radially downward, the normal force is pulling inward. At the crucial speed, the normal force zeros out as the car slows down.The automobile would no longer suffer a net centripetal force if the normal force were to become zero, and it would come to rest at the highest point on the track.

will the car's propulsion increase, decrease or remain the same when the static friction is reduced, as if there is an icy/slippery road?

Answers

The car's propulsion will decrease when the static friction is reduced, as if there is an icy/slippery road. Static friction is the force that resists the movement of two surfaces in contact. When the static friction is reduced, the available friction for the car's propulsion is decreased, and the car's propulsion will be affected.

In order to understand this better, we need to understand friction. Friction is a force which acts in a direction opposite to the direction of motion and resists any change in the state of motion. Static friction is a force which acts in the direction opposite to the direction of motion and opposes any change in the state of rest of the body.

When there is a decrease in the static friction, the car will not be able to accelerate as quickly as it would on a normal road. This is because the static friction is the force which helps to accelerate the car and push it forward. On an icy/slippery road, the friction between the car and the ground will be greatly reduced and the car will be unable to move as quickly as it would on a normal road.

To summarize, the car's propulsion will decrease when the static friction is reduced, as if there is an icy/slippery road. This is because static friction is the force which helps to accelerate the car and push it forward and when there is a decrease in the static friction, the car will not be able to accelerate as quickly as it would on a normal road.
