Answer:

Explanation:

AMU stands for atomic mass unit. It is used to define the mass of an atom.

1 amu is defined as the mas of one twelfth of the mass of one carbon - 12 atom.

1 amu = mass of 1/12 of one carbon 12 atom

It is said to be that 1 amu is the average mass of one proton and one neutron.

ICE Princess25 [194]

Answer:

a. 41.96ft/s

b. 1.096s

Explanation:

a. v²=u²+2gs

v²=31²+2×10×40

V=41.96ft/s

b. t=(v-u) /g

t=(41.96-31)/10

A car maintains a constant speed v as it traverses the hill and valley as shown below. Both the hill and valley have a radius of
Zigmanuir [339]

Answer:

As given that the car maintains a constant speed v as it traverses the hill and valley where both the valley and hill have a radius of curvature R.

(i) At point C, the normal force acting on the car is largest because the centripetal force is up. gravity is down and normal force is up. net force is up so magnitude of normal force must be greater than the car's weight.

(ii) At point A, the normal force acting on the car is smallest because the centripetal force is down. gravity is down and normal force is up. net force is up so magnitude of normal force must be less than car's weight.

(iii) At point C, the driver will feel heaviest because the driver's apparent weight is the normal force on her body.

(iv) At point A, the driver will feel the lightest.

(v)The car can go that much fast without losing contact with the road at A can be determined as follow:

Fn=0 - lose contact with road

Fg= mv²/r

mg=mv²/r

v=sqrt (gr)
