A car rounds a flat curve and experiences a centripetal force directed toward the center of the curve and perpendicular to the d

irection of its motion. If the driver of the car doesn't hit the brake OR the gas, how will the curve affect the motion of the car?

Answer:

The answer is The car's speed will remain constant and its direction will change.

Explanation:

The answer is The car's speed will remain constant and its direction will change. The applied force is perpendicular to the direction of motion, so the speed of the car won't change. Going into a curve doesn't necessarily change the speed of the object.

<h2>Answer:</h2>

If a car is rounding a flat curve, it experiences a centripetal force that pulls it towards the center of the circle it is rotating in.

Now,

The centripetal force can be balanced by the centrifugal force caused due to the acceleration of the body at the high speed which counters the centripetal force and in turn <u>prevents the car from slipping down the curve.</u>

So,

If the car doesn't hit the gas then the <em><u>car will fall down from the curve</u></em> as the Centripetal force will exceed the Centrifugal force of the car.

However, if the car doesn't hit the brake then the <em><u>car will maintain it's position on the flat curve</u></em> track as the centrifugal force will counter the effect of centripetal force directed towards the center.

Find the x and y coordinates of the position at which an electron would be in equilibrium.
love history [14]
Let e be the charge of the electron.
Then F1 + F2 = 0
F1 = K (-1.5) * (-e) /r1^2
F2 = K (15) * (-e) /r2^2
(-1.5) * /r1^2 + (15) /r2^2 = 0
-1 /r1^2 + (10) /r2^2 = 0
[r2/r1]^2 = 10
[R2/r1] = ± 3.162
r2 = ± 3.162 r1.

Given r1 + r2 = √ [1^2 + 0.5^2] = 1.1180-----1
Also tan θ = 0.5 => θ = 26.57°
====================================
Substituting r2 = 3.162 r1 in 1
4.162 r1=1.1180
r1 = 0.2686 m

x coordinate = r1 cos θ = 0.2403 m
y coordinate = r1 sin θ = 0.1201m
===================================

Substituting r2 = - 3.162 r1 in 1
-2.162 r1=1.1180
r1 = -0.5171m
x coordinate = r1 cos θ = -0.4625m
y coordinate = r1 sin θ = -0.2313m
===============================

A boy in a wheelchair (total mass 54.5 kg) has speed 1.40 m/s at the crest of a slope 2.10 m high and 12.4 m long. At the bottom
babymother [125]

Answer:

630.75 j

Explanation:

from the question we have the following

total mass (m) = 54.5 kg

initial speed (Vi) = 1.4 m/s

final speed (Vf) = 6.6 m/s

frictional force (FF) = 41 N

height of slope (h) = 2.1 m

length of slope (d) = 12.4 m

acceleration due to gravity (g) = 9.8 m/s^2

work done (wd) = ?

  • we can calculate the work done by the boy in pushing the chair using the law of law of conservation of energy

wd + mgh = (0.5 mVf^2) - (0.5 mVi^2) + (FF x  d)

wd = (0.5 mVf^2) - (0.5 mVi^2) + (FF x  d) - (mgh)

where wd = work done

m = mass

h = height

g = acceleration due to gravity

FF = frictional force

d = distance

Vf and Vi = final and initial velocity

wd =  (0.5 x 54.5 x 6.9^2) - (0.5 x 54.5 x 1.4^2) + (41 x 12.4) - (54.5 X 9.8 X 2.1)            

wd = 630.75 j

The result of changing a physical sound wave into an analogous electrical signal using a transducer (such as a microphone) is ca
Marina CMI [18]

The result of changing a physical sound wave into an analogous electrical signal using a transducer (such as a microphone) is called analogue audio. In this system, the rapid electrical level is directly proportional to the rapid air pressure taken by the transducer. The analogue signal is then augmented and can be kept on an analogue medium such as tape or transformed further into a succession of discrete mathematical numbers. The advantages of using this device is that it yields a subtle sound and is pleasing to the ear by pushing the signal level and overdriving it. But the disadvantages are editing it would be tedious and prone to degradation.
