Describe at least two ways that you can reduce the friction between two solid surfaces

Aclarinetist, setting out for a performance, grabs his 3.350 kg clarinet case (including the clarinet) from the top of the piano and carries it through the air with an upward force of 24.65 n. find the case's vertical acceleration. indicate an upward acceleration as positive and a downward one as negative.

Consider the growth of a 20-nm-diameter silicon nanowire onto a silicon wafer. the temperature of the wafer surface is maintained at 2400 k. assume the thermal conductivity of the silicon nanowire is 20 wm-1k-1 and all its surfaces including the tip are subjected to convection heat transfer with the coefficient h = 1×105 wm-2k-1 and t∞ = 8000 k. when the nanowire grows to l = 300 nm, what is the temperature of the nanowire tip (t (x =

Ascientist notices that an oil slick floating on water when viewed from above has many different colors reflecting off the surface, making it look rainbow-like (an effect known as iridescence). she aims a spectrometer at a particular spot and measures the wavelength to be 750 nm (in air). the index of refraction of water is 1.3
