The force that causes centripetal acceleration of a car making a turn on a flat road is friction

The centripetal acceleration is required to create a centripetal force. The centripetal force that cause an object to turn in a circular path is due to the force of friction between the tyres and the road. The magnitude of centripetal force is numerically equal to the magnitude of frictional force.

Fc = f

m v² / r = μ N

Fc ∝ 1 / r

The larger the centripetal force the the smaller the radius of curvature.

Therefore, the force that causes centripetal acceleration of a car making a turn on a flat road is friction

Verdich [7]

Therefore, if the block moves from its position of maximum spring stretch to maximum spring compression in 0.25 s, the time required for a full cycle is twice as much; T = 0.5 s.

Which telescope would be better viewing a faint, distant star? Why?
grin007 [14]
Reflecting telescope. Reflecting telescopes tend to have larger objective (due to the use of mirrors, mirrors are a lot cheaper than lenses) and have the ability to collect more light, while refracting telescopes are limited to objective lenses with smaller diameters due to their structural limitations (chromatic abbreviation, for example). Therefore, reflecting telescopes should be better at viewing faint distant stars

An 800-kHz radio signal is detected at a point 2.7 km distant from a transmitter tower. The electric field amplitude of the sign
dimaraw [331]

Answer:

Option D is correct: 170 µW/m²

Explanation:

Given that,

Frequency f = 800kHz

Distance d = 2.7km = 2700m

Electric field Eo = 0.36V/m

Intensity of radio signal

The intensity of radial signal is given as

I = c•εo•Eo²/2

Where c is speed of light

c = 3×10^8m/s

εo = 8.85 × 10^-12 C²/Nm²

I = 3×10^8 × 8.85×10^-12 × 0.36²/2

I = 1.72 × 10^-4W/m²

I = 172 × 10^-6 W/m²

I = 172 µW/m²

Then, the intensity of the radio wave at that point is approximately 170 µW/m²
