A truck is carrying a refrigerator as shown in the figure. The height of the refrigerator is 158.0 cm, the width is 60.0 cm. The

center of gravity of the refrigerator is 67.0 cm above the midpoint of the base.
What is the maximum acceleration the truck can have so that the refrigerator doesn't tip over? (The static friction between the truck and the refrigerator is very large.)

In order for the refrigerator not to tip over, the maximum acceleration of  1.86 m/s² must not be exceeded.

<h3>What is acceleration?</h3>

The term acceleration has to do with the rate at which velocity changes with time.

We have to take the moments at the tipping point of rotation as follows;

Clockwise moment = Anticlockwise moment

Hence;

F₂ * 1.58 m = F₁ * 0.67 m

The weight at half the width= 30 cm or 0.3 m

Height of refrigerator = 158 cm 0r 1.58 cm

Then;

m * a * 1.58 = m * 9.81 * 0.30

a = 1.86 m/s²

In order for the refrigerator not to tip over, the maximum acceleration of  1.86 m/s² must not be exceeded.

A train travels 99 kilometers in 2 hours, and then 90 kilometers in 3 hours. What is its average speed?
Agata [3.3K]

Average speed =

(total distance)/(total time)

Average speed = (99+90)/(2+3)

That's (189 km) / (5 hr)

Average speed = 37.8 km/hr
