Wind turbines work on a simple principle: instead of using electricity to make wind—like a fan—wind turbines use wind to make electricity. Wind turns the propeller-like blades of a turbine around a rotor, which spins a generator, which creates electricity.
A girl standing on a floor would have two opposite forces acting on it. These forces are the weight and the normal force. Since no other forces are acting and that the girl is at rest, then the weight must equate to the normal force. Therefore, the supporting force would be:
F = mg = 55kg (9.81 m/s^2) = 539.55 N
Answer:
Explanation:
Given:
- mass of vehicle,
- radius of curvature,
- coefficient of friction,
<u>During the turn to prevent the skidding of the vehicle its centripetal force must be equal to the opposite balancing frictional force:</u>
where:
coefficient of friction
normal reaction force due to weight of the car
velocity of the car
is the maximum velocity at which the vehicle can turn without skidding.
