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

A spring of spring constant k is attached to a support at the bottom of a ramp that makes an angle θ with the horizontal. A bloc
Nikitich [7]

Answer:

x=\frac {kd^{2}}{2(mgsin\theta +\mu_{k}mgcos\theta)}

Explanation:

From the law of conservation of energy

Energy lost  by the spring, W=Kinetic energy gained, KE+Potential energy gained, PE+Work done by friction, Fr

0.5kd^{2}=0.5mv^{2}+mgLsin\theta+\mu_{k}mgcos\theta x

x(mgsin\theta+\mu_{k}mgcos\theta)=0.5kd^{2}

x=\frac {kd^{2}}{2(mgsin\theta +\mu_{k}mgcos\theta)}

The required distance from A to B is x=\frac {kd^{2}}{2(mgsin\theta +\mu_{k}mgcos\theta)}

Apilot of mass 70 kg rides a fighter jet The fighter jet moves in a vertical circle of radius 100 m at a constant
Cerrena [4.2K]

Answer:

the  force exerted by the seat on the pilot is 10766.7 N

Explanation:

The computation of the force exerted by the seat on the pilot is as follows:

F = Mg + \frac{MV^2}{R}\\\\= 70 \times 9.81  + \frac{70 \times 120^2}{100}\\\\= 10766.7 N

Hence, the  force exerted by the seat on the pilot is 10766.7 N

The sum of all forces acting on an object
Zina [86]

Answer:

The net force is the vector sum of all the forces that act upon an object. That is to say, the net force is the sum of all the forces, taking into account the fact that a force is a vector and two forces of equal magnitude and opposite direction will cancel each other out.

The energy from 0.015 moles of octane was used to heat 250 grams of water. The temperature of the water rose from 293.0 K to 371
arsen [322]

Answer : The correct option is, (B) -5448 kJ/mol

Explanation :

First we have to calculate the heat required by water.

q=m\times c\times (T_2-T_1)

where,

q = heat required by water = ?

m = mass of water = 250 g

c = specific heat capacity of water = 4.18J/g.K

T_1 = initial temperature of water = 293.0 K

T_2 = final temperature of water = 371.2 K

Now put all the given values in the above formula, we get:

q=250g\times 4.18J/g.K\times (371.2-293.0)K

q=81719J

Now we have to calculate the enthalpy of combustion of octane.

\Delta H=\frac{q}{n}

where,

\Delta H = enthalpy of combustion of octane = ?

q = heat released = -81719 J

n = moles of octane = 0.015 moles

Now put all the given values in the above formula, we get:

\Delta H=\frac{-81719J}{0.015mole}

\Delta H=-5447933.333J/mol=-5447.9kJ/mol\approx -5448kJ/mol

Therefore, the enthalpy of combustion of octane is -5448 kJ/mol.
