Driving your car with a constant speed of 11 m/s, you encounter a hump in the road with a circular cross section. If the radius

of curvature of the hump is 54 m, what is the apparent weight of a 80 kg person in your car as you pass over the top of the hump?

Answer:604.74  N

Explanation:

Given

Speed of car=11 m/s

radius of curvature is 54 m

mass of person=80 kg

At Top

mg-N=\frac{mv^2}{r}

where N=normal reaction

N=mg-\frac{mv^2}{r}

N=80\time 9.8-\frac{80\times 11^2}{54}

N=604.74 N

Apparent weight will be equal to Normal reaction

A projectile is fired with an initial velocity of 450 feet per second at an angle of 70° with the horizontal.
pav-90 [236]
<h2>After 26.28 seconds projectile returns 26.28 seconds.</h2>

Explanation:

Initial velocity = 450 ft/s = 137.16 m/s

Angle, θ = 70°

Consider the vertical motion of projectile,

When the projectile return to the ground we have

           Displacement, s = 0 m

           Acceleration, a = -9.81 m/s²

            Initial velocity, u = 137.16 x sin70 = 128.89 m/s

Substituting in s = ut + 0.5 at²

                s = ut + 0.5 at²

                0 = 128.89 x t + 0.5 x (-9.81) x t²

                t² - 26.28 t = 0

                t ( t- 26.28) = 0

               t = 0 s or t = 26.28 s

After 26.28 seconds projectile returns 26.28 seconds.

On average, how many stars would we have to search before we would expect to hear a signal? assume there are 500 billion stars i
Keith_Richards [23]

We would have to search at least 5,000,000,000 (5 billion) stars before we would expect to hear a signal.

To find out the number of stars that we will need to search to find a signal, we need to use the following formula:

  • total of stars/civilizations
  • 500,000,000,000 (500 billion) stars / 100 civilization = 5,000,000,000 (5 billion)

This shows it is expected to find a civilization every 5 billion stars, and therefore it is necessary to search at least 5 billion stars before hearing a signal from any civilization.

Note: This question is incomplete; here is the complete question.

On average, how many stars would we have to search before we would expect to hear a signal? Assume there are 500 billion stars in the galaxy.

Assuming 100 civilizations existed.

The _______ is a factor that's affected by changes in the independent variable. A. dependent variable B. hypothesis C. experimen
Irina18 [472]
A. dependent variable

As the the independent variable (i.e. number of cats being sold) increases, the dependent variable (i.e. money made) will also increase. You can have 1,000,000 cats for sale and make no money, but you cannot make money without having sold some cats first.
Hope my weird example helped!

Two boxes (24 kg and 62 kg) are being pushed across a horizontal frictionless surface, as the drawing shows. The 36-N pushing fo
defon

Answer:

F = 26.04 N

Explanation:

As we know that system of two boxes are moving on frictionless surface

So here if two boxes are considered as a system

then we have

F = (m_1 + m_2) a

m_1 = 24 kg

m_2 = 62 kg

F = 36 N

36 = (24 + 62) a

a = 0.42 m/s^2

Now since we know that both the boxes are moving together so force applied by first box on other box is given as

F = ma

F = (62 \times 0.42)

F = 26.04 N
