Answer:

v= 10 m/s

Explanation:

 Given that

Radius ,r= 20 m

The total wight R

R=W+\dfrac{W}{2}      (  50% heavier)

Lets take ,mass = m kg

R=mg+\dfrac{mg}{2}

Now by applying Newton's Second law

Total ForceF= mg+\dfrac{mv^2}{r}

v=speed of the car at the bottom

Now by balancing the above forces

mg+\dfrac{mg}{2}= mg+\dfrac{mv^2}{r}

\dfrac{mg}{2}= \dfrac{mv^2}{r}

\dfrac{g}{2}= \dfrac{v^2}{r}

v=\sqrt{\dfrac{gr}{2}}

v=\sqrt{\dfrac{10\times 20}{2}}\ m/s             ( take g= 10 m/s²)

v= 10 m/s

Answer:

Explanation:

Force = weight + 50% of weight = 1.5 mg

Weight = mg

Let v be the speed.

radius, r = 20 m

According to the Newtons second law

F = mg + mv²/r

1.5 mg = mg + mv²/r

0.5 g = v²/r

v²  = 0.5 x 9.8 x 20

v = 9.8 m/s

A particular frost-free refrigerator uses about 710kWh of electrical energy per year. Express this amount of energy in J, kJ, &a
Dafna11 [192]
<span>A particular frost-free refrigerator uses about 710kWh of electrical energy per year. You are to express this amount of energy in J, kJ, & Calories. 

1 year (365 days / 1 year)(24 hours / 1 day)(3600s / 1h) = 31,536,000s

710 kWh/yr (1 yr) = 710 kWh
710 x 10^3 Wh = </span>710 x 10^3(J/s)(31,536,000s)<span> = 2.24 x 10^13 J
</span>2.24 x 10^13 J = 2.24 x 10^10 kJ = 5.35 x 10^12 cal

vichka [17]
Traveling against currents usually takes longer. Kinda like walking against the wind, you feel the heaviness against your jacket as you push through it. Where when you walking with the wind, it kind of gives your a push. Same for with currents.

1. explain why mid-sized cars and SUVs have different rollover fatality rates.
iris [78.8K]

Answer:

1.  They generally have poorer fuel efficiency and require more resources to manufacture than smaller vehicles, thus contributing more to climate change and environmental degradation. Their higher center of gravity increases their risk of rollovers.

2. Mid-sized cars and SUVs both have a fixed object fatality rate of 2.6/BVM. This is most likely because they have a similar mass and inertia. The force of the crash is likely to have about the same deceleration in both vehicles.

Explanation:
