Answer:
The normal force the seat exerted on the driver is 125 N.
Explanation:
Given;
mass of the car, m = 2000 kg
speed of the car, u = 100 km/h = 27.78 m/s
radius of curvature of the hill, r = 100 m
mass of the driver, = 60 kg
The centripetal force of the driver at top of the hill is given as;
where;
Fc is the centripetal force
is downward force due to weight of the driver
is upward or normal force on the drive
Therefore, the normal force the seat exerted on the driver is 125 N.
Answer:
(a) g = 8.82158145.
(b) 7699.990192m/s.
(c)5484.3301s = 1.5234 hours.(extremely fast).
Explanation:
(a) Strength of gravitational field 'g' by definition is
, here G is Gravitational Constant, and r is distance from center of earth, all the values will remain same except r which will be radius of earth + altitude at which ISS is in orbit.
r = 6721,000 meters, putting this value in above equation gives g = 8.82158145.
(b) We have to essentially calculate centripetal acceleration that equals new 'g'.
here g is known, r is known and v is unknown.
plugging in r and g in above and solving for unknown gives V = 7699.990192m/s.
(c) S = vT, here T is time period or time required to complete one full revolution.
S = earth's circumfrence , V is calculated in (B) T is unknown.
solving for unknown gives T = 5484.3301s = 1.5234hours.
