A car is safely negotiating an unbanked circular turn at a speed of 25 m/s. The road is dry, and the maximum static frictional f

orce acts on the tires. Suddenly a long wet patch in the road decreases the maximum static frictional force to one third of its dry-road value. If the car is to continue safely around the curve, to what speed must the driver slow the car?

Answer:

The velocity must be reduced to one third to stay on the road

Explanation:

The sideways force that friction must resist comes from the centrifugal acceleration due to the turn.

fc=mv2Rfc=mv2R

the frictional force is given by

ff=μmgff=μmg where μμ is the static friction coefficient

if the car is not to skid

fc≤fffc≤ff so    

mv2R≤μmgmv2R≤μmg

v≤μgR−−−−√v≤μgR

thus vv varies as the square root of μμ

so if μμ is reduced by 9, vv must be reduced by 9–√=39=3

and thus the speed must be reduced to<u> 26</u> m/s

Answer:

11,100 N

Explanation:

Draw the car on the incline. Label the weight and normal forces. Call the direction normal to the incline y, and the direction parallel to the incline x.

If it helps, rotate the incline so that the surface of the incline is flat.

Use trigonometry to determine the components of the weight force. The y component of the weight is:

Wᵧ = mg cos θ

Wᵧ = (1150 kg) (9.8 m/s²) (cos 8.70°)

Wᵧ = 11,100 N

A plane flies at 400 north of East for 150 miles,then flies 200 miles at an angle of 150 west of North. What is the plane's fina
ivanzaharov [21]

Answer:

341.46miles

Explanation:

Find the diagram attachment.

To get the displacement D, we will use the cosine rule as shown;

D² = 200²+150²-2(160)(400)cos65°

D² = 40000+22500-128000cos65°

D² = 62500+54095.14

D² = 116595.14

D = √116595.14

D= 341.46 miles

Hence the plane final displacement is 341.46miles

a kid on a playground swing makes 6 complete to-and-from swings each 30 seconds (a) the frequency of the swinging is? (b) the pe
Mariana [72]

The frequency is how many per second:

       (6 swings)/(30 sec) = (6/30) swing/sec = 0.2 per sec = 0.2 Hz .

The period is how long each one takes, or seconds per swing.
It's exactly the flip of frequency.
So we could just take the frequency, flip it, and find   1 / 0.2 ,
but let's do it the long way:

      (30 sec) / (6 swings) = (30/6) sec/swing =  5 seconds  .

An elevator carrying a person of mass m is moving upward and slowing down. How does the magnitude f of the force exerted on the
V125BC [204]

The force f of the elevator on the man keeps reducing as the elevator keeps going up while the gravitational force mg keeps increasing moving upwards.

<h3>What is an elevator?</h3>

An elevator is an electrical device that lifts people up and down a tall building or structure.

for the elevator to go up, f > mg.

for the elevator to come down mg > f.

Analysis

since the force on the man is f = ma

where a is the acceleration of the elevator, then it means when a increases,  f will increase and when it decreases, f would decrease. slowing down means a, is decreasing going up and this reduces the force as the elevator keeps going up.

on the other hand, gravity acts faster on bodies that are slower in motion so since g, increases going up, mg would also increase.
