A solid ball is released from rest and slides down a hillside that slopes downward at an angle 51.0 ∘ from the horizontal. what

minimum value must the coefficient of static friction between the hill and ball surfaces have for no slipping to occur?

In order for the object not to slip, the component of the weight parallel to the surface must be equal to the frictional force (which acts in the opposite direction):
F_{//}= F_a

The parallel component of the weight is:
F_{//} = mg \sin \alpha
where m is the object mass and \alpha is the angle of the inclined plane.

The frictional force is
F_a = \mu m g \cos \alpha
where \mu is the coefficient of static friction.

Equalizing the two forces, we have
mg \sin \alpha = \mu m g \cos \alpha
from which we find
\mu =  \tan \alpha

and so, in our problem the coefficient of static friction must be
\mu=\tan 51^{\circ} =1.23

A train slows down as it rounds a sharp horizontal turn, going from 94.0 km/h to 46.0 km/h in the 17.0 s that it takes to round
Svetllana [295]

Answer:

1.41 m/s^2

Explanation:

First of all, let's convert the two speeds from km/h to m/s:

u = 94.0 km/h \cdot \frac{1000 m/km}{3600 s/h} = 26.1 m/s

v=46.0 km/h \cdot \frac{1000 m/km}{3600 s/h}=12.8 m/s

Now we find the centripetal acceleration which is given by

a_c=\frac{v^2}{r}

where

v = 12.8 m/s is the speed

r = 140 m is the radius of the curve

Substituting values, we find

a_c=\frac{(12.8 m/s)^2}{140 m}=1.17 m/s^2

we also have a tangential acceleration, which is given by

a_t = \frac{v-u}{t}

where

t = 17.0 s

Substituting values,

a_t=\frac{12.8 m/s-26.1 m/s}{17.0 s}=-0.78 m/s^2

The two components of the acceleration are perpendicular to each other, so we can find the resultant acceleration by using Pythagorean theorem:

a=\sqrt{a_c^2+a_t^2}=\sqrt{(1.17 m/s^2)+(-0.78 m/s^2)}=1.41 m/s^2

A satellite circles the Earth in an orbit whose radius is twice the Earth’s radius. The Earth’s mass is 5.98 x 1024 kg, and its
gavmur [86]

Hello!

Recall the period of an orbit is how long it takes the satellite to make a complete orbit around the earth. Essentially, this is the same as 'time' in the distance = speed * time equation. For an orbit, we can define these quantities:

d = 2\pi r ← The circumference of the orbit

speed = orbital speed, we will solve for this later

time = period

Therefore:

T = \frac{2\pi r}{v}

Where 'r' is the orbital radius of the satellite.

First, let's solve for 'v' assuming a uniform orbit using the equation:
v = \sqrt{\frac{Gm}{r}}

G = Gravitational Constant (6.67 × 10⁻¹¹ Nm²/kg²)

m = mass of the earth (5.98 × 10²⁴ kg)

r = radius of orbit (1.276 × 10⁷ m)

Plug in the givens:
v = \sqrt{\frac{(6.67*10^{-11})(5.98*10^{24})}{(1.276*10^7)}} = 5590.983 m/s

Now, we can solve for the period:

T = \frac{2\pi (1.276*10^7)}{5590.983} =\boxed{ 14339.776 s}

vladimir1956 [14]

Answer:

Therefore the rate of corrosion 37.4 mpy and 0.952 mm/yr.

Explanation:

The corrosion rate is the rate of material remove.The formula for calculating CPR or corrosion penetration rate is

CPR=\frac{KW}{DAT}

K= constant depends on the system of units used.

W= weight =485 g

D= density =7.9 g/cm³

A = exposed specimen area =100 in² =6.452 cm²

K=534 to give CPR in mpy

K=87.6  to give CPR in mm/yr

mpy

CPR=\frac{KW}{DAT}

        =\frac{534\times( 485g)\times( 10^3mg/g)}{(7.9g/cm^3) \times (100in^2)\times (24h/day)\times (365day/yr)\times 1yr}

        =37.4mpy

mm/yr

CPR=\frac{KW}{DAT}

        =\frac{87.6\times (485g)\times (10^3 mg/g)}{(7.9g/cm^3)\times (100in^2)\times(2.54cm/in)^2\times (24h/day)\times (365day/yr)\times 1yr}

       =0.952 mm/yr

Therefore the rate of corrosion 37.4 mpy and 0.952 mm/yr.
