Answer:

The speed of the car at the apex of the loop must be grater than 2.45 m/s

Explanation:

In order for the car to not fall off the track at the apex of the loop, the norm force of the track at the apex must be greater than zero.

Assuming frictionless life on the track which is also to have a perfectly circular shape near the top (radius being 0.25m), the norm force of the track and gravity both point down and result in the centripetal force:

F_c=F_N+F_g

The formula for centripetal force on a circular trajectory is

F_c = m\frac{v^2}{r}

and so the condition for the car to stay on the track can be written as

m\frac{v^2}{r} = F_N + mg\implies F_N = m\frac{v^2}{r}-mg>0\\\implies |v| >\sqrt{gr}=\sqrt{9.8\frac{m}{s^2}0.25m}=2.45\frac{m}{s}

The speed of the car at the apex of the loop must be grater than 2.45 m/s

John realized that his orchard has been invaded by certain harmful invasive plants. These plants are consuming all the soil nutr
Dovator [93]
John used smothering as the method to control the harmful invasive plants in his orchard. Smothering is an example of a manual method of control and it works best in a small population of invasive species. Smothering involves covering the invasive species with a barrier that is highly impenetrable for one growing season in order to prevent these species from thriving in the environment.

A(n) 131 g ball is dropped from a height
larisa [96]

Answer:

26.59 N/m

Explanation:

From the question given above, the following data were obtained:

Mass (m) = 131 g

Extention (e) = 4.82755 cm

Acceleration due to gravity (g) = 9.8 m/s²

Spring constant (K) =?

Next, we shall convert 131 g to Kg. This can be obtained as follow:

1000 g = 1 Kg

Therefore,

131 g = 131 g × 1 Kg / 1000 g

131 g = 0.131 Kg

Thus, 131 g is equivalent to 0.131 Kg.

Next, we shall the force exerted by the ball on the spring. This can be obtained as follow:

Mass (m) = 0.131 Kg

Acceleration due to gravity (g) = 9.8 m/s²

Force (F) =?

F = ma

F = 0.131 × 9.8

F = 1.2838 N

Next, we shall convert 4.82755 cm to metre (m)

This can be obtained as follow:

100 cm = 1 m

Therefore,

4.82755 cm = 4.82755 cm × 1 m / 100 cm

4.82755 cm = 0.0482755 m

Thus, 4.82755 cm is equivalent to 0.0482755 m

Finally, we shall determine the spring constant as follow:

Force (F) = 1.2838 N

Extention (e) = 0.0482755 m

Spring constant (K) =?

F = Ke

1.2838 = K × 0.0482755

Divide both side by 0.0482755

K = 1.2838 / 0.0482755

K = 26.59 N/m

Thus the spring constant is 26.59 N/m

How much work is done when a 214 newton force pushes a sleeping cow 37m across a field.
nata0808 [166]
Hello!

Answer: 
7918 J

Explanation:

We are assuming that the floor (field) is completely horizontal since there's no information about that in the statement. 

We are going to use the following formula:

W= F . Cos \alpha . D

Where:

F=214 N
\alpha =0º
D= 37m

Then, by substituting we have:

W=214N . Cos (0).37m= 7918 N.m=7918 J
