it's how much it weighs and how much force is pushing on it like a egg if i drop it the weigh can cause it to break and how much force the gravity is pushing on it.

Marizza181 [45]

Answer:

11 m/s

Explanation:

Draw a free body diagram. There are two forces acting on the car:

Weigh force mg pulling down

Normal force N pushing perpendicular to the incline

Sum the forces in the +y direction:

∑F = ma

N cos θ − mg = 0

N = mg / cos θ

Sum the forces in the radial (+x) direction:

∑F = ma

N sin θ = m v² / r

Substitute and solve for v:

(mg / cos θ) sin θ = m v² / r

g tan θ = v² / r

v = √(gr tan θ)

Plug in values:

v = √(9.8 m/s² × 48 m × tan 15°)

v = 11.2 m/s

Rounded to 2 significant figures, the maximum speed is 11 m/s.

While traveling along a highway a driver slows from 24 m/s to 15 m/s in 12 seconds. What is the automobile's acceleration? (Reme

slava [35]

Answer:

Acceleration = -0.75 m/s²

Explanation:

Given the following data;

Initial velocity = 24 m/s

Final velocity = 15 m/s

Time = 12 seconds

To find the acceleration of the automobile;

Acceleration can be defined as the rate of change of the velocity of an object with respect to time.

This simply means that, acceleration is given by the subtraction of initial velocity from the final velocity all over time.

Hence, if we subtract the initial velocity from the final velocity and divide that by the time, we can calculate an object’s acceleration.

Mathematically, acceleration is given by the equation;

$Acceleration (a) = \frac {final \; velocity - initial \; velocity}{time}$

Substituting into the formula, we have;

$Acceleration = \frac{15 - 24}{12}$

$Acceleration = \frac{-9}{12}$

Acceleration = -0.75 m/s²

Therefore, the automobile is decelerating because its final velocity is lesser than its initial velocity, leading to a negative value.
