Static friction keeps the car from skidding off the road and points toward the center of the curve. By Newton's second law, the car experiences

• net vertical force

F [normal] - F [weight] = 0

• net horizontal force

F [friction] = ma = mv²/r

where v is the tangential speed of the car.

It follows that

F [normal] = F [weight] = mg

and when static friction is maximized at the car's maximum speed,

F [friction] = µ F[normal] = 0.402 mg

Solve for v :

0.402 mg = mv²/r   ⇒   v = √(0.402 g (93.5 m)) ≈ 19.2 m/s

Svetradugi [14.3K]
The impulse imparted to the shells equals the change in the momentum:
Fav*(Delta t)= Delta m*v.
The mass change is
Delta m= n*m= (89.9shells)*(88.7g)=7.97Kg
So the average force is
F=((v)*(Delta m))/t= ((929)*(7.97))/4.84=1529.78 N
Since the velocity of the shells is much greater than the velocity of the helicopter, there is no need to use relative velocity.

An Aeolian harp (named after Aeolus, the Greek god of the wind) consists of several strings fixed to a frame or a sounding box.
Mashcka [7]

Answer:

0.434 m

Explanation:

We are given that

Mass per unit length=\mu=\frac{m}{l}=2.4 g/m=2.4\times 10^{-3} kg/m

1 kg=1000 g

Tension=350 N

Fundamental frequency=f=440 Hz

We have to find the length you should make it.

We know that

l=\frac{1}{2f}\sqrt{\frac{T}{\mu}}

Using the formula

l=\frac{1}{2\times 440}\times\sqrt{\frac{350}{2.4\times 10^{-3}}}

l=0.434 m

Hence, you should make it 0.434 m long.
