Answer:

(a) FN = m (g - \frac{v^{2} }{r})

(b) vmin = 17.146 m/s

Explanation:

The radius of the arc is

r = 30m

The normal force acting on the car form the highest point is

FN = m (g - \frac{v^{2} }{r})

If the normal force become 0 we have

m (g - \frac{v^{2} }{r}) = 0

or

g - \frac{v^{2} }{r} = 0

This way, when FN = 0, then v = vmin, so

g - \frac{vmin^{2} }{r} = 0

vmin = \sqrt[.]{g*r} = \sqrt[.]{9.8 m/s^{2} * 30m } = 17.146 m/s

A ball falls off of a 3m tall shelf. How long will it take for the
natali 33 [55]

Answer:

0.8s

Explanation:

Given parameters:

Height of shelf  = 3m

Unknown:

Time it will take to hit the ground  = ?

Solution:

To solve this problem, we use the expression below;

         x  = ut + \frac{1}{2} gt²  

x is the height

u is the initial velocity  = 0m/s

g is the acceleration due to gravity  = 9.8m/s²

t is the time taken  = ?

Now insert the parameters and solve for t;

    3  = (0 x t) +( \frac{1}{2} x 9.8 x t²)

    3 = 4.9t²

       t² = 0.6

       t = 0.8s

Anuta_ua [19.1K]

Answer:

the final kinetic energy is 0.9eV

Explanation:

To find the kinetic energy of the electron just after the collision with hydrogen atoms you take into account that the energy of the electron in the hydrogen atoms are given by the expression:

E_n=\frac{-13.6eV}{n^2}

you can assume that the shot electron excites the electron of the hydrogen atom to the first excited state, that is

E_{n_2-n_1}=-13.6eV[\frac{1}{n_2^2}-\frac{1}{n_1^2}]\\\\E_{2-1}=-13.6eV[\frac{1}{2^2}-\frac{1}{1}]=-10.2eV

-10.2eV is the energy that the shot electron losses in the excitation of the electron of the hydrogen atom. Hence, the final kinetic energy of the shot electron after it has given -10.2eV of its energy is:

E_{k}=11.1eV-10.2eV=0.9eV

The earth has a mass ME = 5.98 · 1024 kg and the moon has a mass MM = 7.36 · 1022 kg. The distance from the center of the earth
ivann1987 [24]

Answer:

2 x 10^20 N

Explanation:

Me = 5.98 x 10^24 kg

Mm = 7.36 x 10^22 kg

r = 3.82 x 10^5 km = 3.82 x 10^8 m

The gravitational force between earth and moon is

F = G Me x Mm / r^2

F = (6.67 x 10^-11 x  5.98 x 10^24 x 7.36 x 10^22) / (3.82 x 10^8 x 3.82 x 10^8)

F = 2 x 10^20 N
