A 975-kg sports car (including driver) crosses the rounded top of a hill at determine (a) the normal force exerted by the road o
iVinArrow [24]
There are missing data in the text of the problem (found them on internet):
- speed of the car at the top of the hill: v=15 m/s
- radius of the hill: r=100 m

Solution:

(a) The car is moving by circular motion. There are two forces acting on the car: the weight of the car W=mg (downwards) and the normal force N exerted by the road (upwards). The resultant of these two forces is equal to the centripetal force, m \frac{v^2}{r}, so we can write:
mg-N=m \frac{v^2}{r} (1)
By rearranging the equation and substituting the numbers, we find N:
N=mg-m \frac{v^2}{r}=(975 kg)(9.81 m/s^2)-(975 kg) \frac{(15 m/s)^2}{100 m}=7371 N

(b) The problem is exactly identical to step (a), but this time we have to use the mass of the driver instead of the mass of the car. Therefore, we find:
N=mg-m \frac{v^2}{r}=(62 kg)(9.81 m/s^2)-(62 kg) \frac{(15 m/s)^2}{100 m}=469 N

(c) To find the car speed at which the normal force is zero, we can just require N=0 in eq.(1). and the equation becomes:
mg=m \frac{v^2}{r}
from which we find
v= \sqrt{gr}= \sqrt{(9.81 m/s^2)(100 m)}=31.3 m/s

Statements best explains why a scientific theory can be revised?
Vadim26 [7]

Answer: Because new theories can come out that better explain observations and experimental results can replace old theories.

Explanation: Theories more than ten years old are usually out of date. Scientists want to prove that the work of other scientists is wrong. New evidence that supports a change prompts scientists to modify earlier theories.

Air flows into a jet engine at 70 lbm/s, and fuel also enters the engine at a steady rate. The exhaust gases, having a density o
Andrews [41]

Answer:

1387908 lbm/h

Explanation:

Air flowing into jet engine = 70 lbm/s

ρ = Exhaust gas density = 0.1 lbm/ft³

r = Radius of exit with a circular cross section = 1 ft

v = Exhaust gas velocity = 1450 ft/s

Exhaust gas mass (flow rate)= Air flowing into jet engine + Fuel

Q = (70+x) lbm/s

Area of exit with a circular cross section = π×r² = π×1²= π m²

Now from energy balance

Q = ρ×A×v

⇒70+x = 0.1×π×1450

⇒70+x = 455.53

⇒ x = 455.53-70

⇒ x = 385.53 lbm/s

∴ Mass of fuel which is supplied to the engine each minute is 1387908 lbm/h
