) A 1000-kg car is moving at 30 m/s around a horizontal unbanked curve whose diameter is 0.20 km. What is the magnitude of the f
1 answer:
The frictional force required is 9000 N
Explanation:
In order to keep the car in the turn in circular motion without sliding, the frictional force must provide the centripetal force necessary for the circular motion.
Therefore, we can write:
where the term on the left is the frictional force while the term on the right is the centripetal force, and where:
m is the mass of the car
v is its speed
r is the radius of the curve
For the car in this turn, we have
m = 1000 kg
v = 30 m/s
(since the diameter is 0.20 km, the radius is half that value)
And substituting, we find

First we find the energy level with the following formula, where a is the energy level, n1 is the final energy level, n2 is the starting energy level and r is Rydberg's constant in Joules
We insert the values
The wavelength is found with this formula, where h is Planck's constant and c is the speed of light
Finally we insert the values
Which is the same as 93.8 nm
