A circular test track for cars has a circumference of 4.7 km. A car travels around the track from the southernmost point to the

northernmost point. What distance does the car travel? What is the car's displacement from its original position?

Well, for the distance traveled, the car goes from the northernmost point to the southernmost point. So, it travels half of the circle's circumference = 4.7/2 = 2.35 km.

For the displacement, by going from the northernmost point to the southernmost point, the car basically just travels the diameter of circle.

So, using the formula: Circumference = 2πr = <span>πd

Hence, the d = C/</span>π = 4.7/<span>π = 1.49605... = 1.5 km (2 significant figures)
Therefore, displacement = 1.5 km</span>

A body is placed on a rough inclined plane. Why does the frictional force decrease with the increase of angle of inclination
kondor19780726 [428]
The frictional force is directly proportional to the force that is perpendicular on the surface.

When the body is placed on a horizontal level with zero inclination, the only force acting on the body is the gravitational force which always pulls the body down. The gravitational force, in this case, is the perpendicular force to the surface. Accordingly, this entire force is used to generate friction

Now as the inclination of the surface increases, the gravitational force is no longer the perpendicular force of the body, its value decreases, which means only a part is used to generate frictional force. Consequently, frictional force decreases.

When the inclination reaches 90 degrees, the gravitational force does not act along the normal and accordingly, no friction force is generated.

Identify and sketch all the external forces acting on the chair. because the chair can be represented as a point particle of mas
SOVA2 [1]

There are two external force acts on the chair.

1. The force due to earth gravity, acts in the downward direction.

2. Reaction force of the gravity, which acts in the Upward direction (Normal Force).

On every object, there is a force acts due to gravity of earth, which pulls the object towards the centre of earth, known as gravity force, always acts in the downward direction. Mathematically it's given as

F=mg

here, m is the mass of the object, and g is the acceleration of gravity.

To balance this gravity force, a counter force acts in the opposite direction, whose magnitude is equal to the force of gravity
