Riders in a carnival ride stand with their backs against the wall of a circular room of diameter
Veseljchak [2.6K]

Answer:

option C

Explanation:

given,

diameter of circular room = 8 m

rotational velocity of the rider = 45 rev/min

                  = 45 \times \dfrac{2\pi}{60}

                  =4.712 rad/s

here in this case normal force is equal to centripetal force

N = m r ω²

N = m x 4 x 4.712²

N = 88.83m

frictional force = μ N

    = 88.83m x μ

now, for the body to not to slide

gravity force is equal to frictional force

m g = 88.83 m x μ

g = 88.83 x μ

9.8 = 88.83 x μ

 μ = 0.11

hence, the correct answer  is option C

A light bulb whose resistance is 240 ohms is connected to a 120 voltage source. What is the current through the bulb?
Sedaia [141]

Answer:

0.5A

Explanation:

Using R = \frac{V}{I},

R is the resistance (in Ohms)

V is the voltage (in V)

I is the current (in A)

240=\frac{120}{I}

I = 0.5A

Flura [38]

The given data is incomplete. The complete question is as follows.

At an accident scene on a level road, investigators measure a car's skid mark to be 84 m long. It was a rainy day and the coefficient of friction was estimated to be 0.36.  Use these data to determine the speed of the car when the driver slammed on (and locked) the brakes. (why does the car's mass not matter?)

Explanation:

Let us assume that v is the final velocity and u is the initial velocity of the car. Let s be the skid marks and \mu be the friction coefficient and m be the mass of car.

Hence, the given data is as follows.

                v = 0,     s = 84 m,     \mu = 0.36

According to Newton's law of second motion the expression for acceleration is as follows.

                      F = ma

                 -\mu N = ma

                 -\mu mg = ma

                      a = -\mu g

Also,    

               v^{2} = u^{2} + 2as

              (0)^{2} = u^{2} + 2(-\mu g)s

                  u^{2} = 2(\mu g)s

                            = \sqrt{2(0.36)(9.81 m/s^{2})(84 m)}

                            = 24.36 m/s

Thus, we can conclude that the speed of the car when the driver slammed on (and locked) the brakes is 24.36 m/s.
