Mass, m = 85 kg, velocity = 15 m/s, radius = 20m.

Centripetal force = mv²/r

F = 85*15²/20 =  85*15*15/20 = 956.25 N

A 2000 kg car moving at 100 km/h crosses the top of a hill with a radius of curvature of 100 m. What is the normal force exerted
Tpy6a [65]

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;

F_c = F_g - F_N

where;

Fc is the centripetal force

F_g is downward force due to weight of the driver

F_N is upward or normal force on the drive

F_N = F_g-F_c\\\\F_N = mg - \frac{mv^2}{r} \\\\F_N = (60 \times 9.8) -\frac{60 \ \times \ 27.78^2 \ }{100} \\\\F_N = 588 \ N - 463 \ N\\\\F_N = 125 \ N

Therefore, the normal force the seat exerted on the driver is 125 N.

A ______ is something that can be placed between the sun and the subject to diffuse the light. *
Gekata [30.6K]

Answer:

scrim

Explanation:

A scrim is something that can be placed between the sun and the subject to diffuse the light.

An instance of a diffuser is a softbox that is put on its front side around a strobe containing diffusion content. The sun is a form of hard light that is often diffused through a scrim. The light rays are dispersed by putting a scrim between the sun and the object, and the harsh sun's rays is gentler.

What is happening in the diagram?
pishuonlain [190]
In the diagram, the ship send sound(?) waves to the water, to determine if there is anything there. If there is something like a sunken ship shown in the diagram, the waves return in a shorter time hence you can understand if theres something or now. This is the principle of radars and sonars.
