If a car is moving with uniform velocity, then there is
no net force acting on it.

The force of the engine is exactly enough to balance
the forces of friction and air resistance against the car.

Also notice that there can't be any centripetal force, and the
car can't be on a curve. If it's moving with "uniform velocity",
that means steady speed in a straight line.

It is an important part of many cells and processes such as amino acids, proteins and even our DNA. It is also needed to make chlorophyll in plants, which is used in photosynthesis to make their food.

7. A toy car of mass 1.2 kg is driving vertical circles inside a hollow cylinder of radius 2.0m. It is moving at a constant spee

Answer:

$N_{top}=9.8N\\N_{bottom}=33.4N$

b) $v_{min}=4.4m/s$

Explanation:

The net force on the car must produce the centripetal acceleration necessary to make this circle, which is $a_{cp}=\frac{v^2}{R}$ . At the top of the circle, the normal force and the weight point downwards (like the centripetal force should), while at the bottom the normal force points upwards (like the centripetal force should) and the weight downwards, so we have (taking the upwards direction as positive):

$-m\frac{v^2}{R}=-N_{top}-mg\\m\frac{v^2}{R}=N_{bottom}-mg$

Which means:

$N_{top}=m\frac{v^2}{R}-mg=(1.2kg)\frac{(6m/s)^2}{2m}-(1.2kg)(9.8m/s^2)=9.8N\\N_{bottom}=m\frac{v^2}{R}+mg=(1.2kg)\frac{(6m/s)^2}{2m}+(1.2kg)(9.8m/s^2)=33.4N$
