Mass of the vehicle = 2000 kg
Velocity of the vehicle = 90 km/hr
= 25 m/s
Radius of the curve = 80 m
Then
Centripetal force = [2000 * (25)^2]/80
= (2000 * 625)/80
= 15625 kg m/s
= 15625 Newton second

A farmer lifts his hay bales into the top loft of his barn by walking his horse forward with a constant velocity of 1 ft/s. Dete

Lesechka [4]

Answer:

The velocity of the hay bale is - 0.5 ft/s and the acceleration is $6.25\times 10^{- 3} ft/s^{2}$

Solution:

As per the question:

Constant velocity of the horse in the horizontal, $v_{x} = 1 ft/s$

Distance of the horse on the horizontal axis, x = 10 ft

Vertical distance, y = 20 ft

Now,

Apply Pythagoras theorem to find the length:

$20^{2} + 10^{2} = l^{2}$

$l^{2}= 500$

Now,

$x^{2} + y^{2} = 500$ (1)

Differentiating equation (1) w.r.t 't':

$2x\frac{dx}{dt} + 2y\frac{dy}{dt} = 0$

$x\frac{dx}{dt} = - y\frac{dy}{dt}$

where

$\frac{dx}{dt}$ = Rate of change of displacement along the horizontal

$\frac{dy}{dt}$ = Rate of change of displacement along the vertical

$v_{x}$ = velocity along the x-axis.

$v_{y}$ = velocity along the y-axis

$xv_{x} = -yv_{y}$

$v_{y} = - 10\times \frac{1}{20} = - 0.5 ft/s$

$|v_{y}| = 0.5\ ft/s$

Acceleration of the hay bale is given by the kinematic equation:

$v_{y}^{2} = u_{y} + 2ay$

$(-0.5)^{2} =0 + 2ay$

$0.25 = 2ay$

$\frac{0.25}{2y} = a$

$a = \frac{0.25}{2\times 20} = 6.25\times 10^{- 3} ft/s^{2}$

A frame hanging on a wall is held by two cables. The tension in each cable is 30 N, and the cables make an angle of 45° with the

Dimas [21]

Answer: option D) 42.4 N

The weight of the frame is balanced by the vertical component of tension.

W = T sin θ + T sin θ = 2 T sin θ

The tension in each cable is T = 30 N

Angle made by the cables with the horizontal, θ = 45°

⇒ W = 2×30 N × sin 45° = 2 × 30 N × 0.707 = 42.4 N

Hence, the weight of the frame is 42.4 N. Correct option is D.

A common carnival ride, called a gravitron, is a large r = 11 m cylinder in which people stand against the outer wall. the cylin

Elena-2011 [213]

Answer:

The minimum speed is 14.53 m/s.

Explanation:

Given that,

r = 11 m

Friction coefficient = 0.51

Suppose we need to find the minimum speed, that the cylinder must make a person move at to ensure they will stick to the wall

When frictional force becomes equal to or greater than the weight of person

Then, he sticks to the wall

We need to calculate the minimum speed

Using formula for speed

$f_{s}=\mu N\geq mg$

Where, $N =\dfrac{mv^2}{r}$

$\mu\times\dfrac{mv^2}{r}\gep mg$

$v^2\geq\dfrac{gr}{\mu}$

Put the value into the formula

$v=\sqrt{\dfrac{9.8\times11}{0.51}}$

$v=14.53\ m/s$

Hence, The minimum speed is 14.53 m/s.

Two sound waves are traveling through the same medium. They have the same amplitude, wavelength, and direction of travel. If the

Sloan [31]

Answer:

Constructive interference

Explanation:

Here, the medium is same, same wavelength, same frequency, same amplitude and same direction of propagation.

Let the intensity of waves be I which is same for both

The formula for the net intensity is

$I^{2}=I_{1}^{2}+I_{2}^{2}+2I_{1}I_{2}Cos\phi$

where, Ф be the phase difference

So, $I_{R}^{2}=I^{2}+I^{2}+2IICos6\pi$

Here, IR is maximum so the interference is constructive in nature.

In the Hydrogen atom, the energy spacing between the is 4.07 x 101 J (Joules). When an is the frequency of the photons emitted?

agasfer [191]

Answer:

The frequency of the photon is $3.069\times10^{14}\ Hz$ .

Explanation:

Given that,

Energy $E=4.07\times10^{-19}\ J$

We need to calculate the energy

Using relation of energy

$E_{4}-E_{2}=\Delta E$

Where, $\Delta E$ = energy spacing

$4h\nu-2h\nu=4.07\times10^{-19}$

$\nu=\dfrac{4.07\times10^{-19}}{2h}$

Put the value of h into the formula

$\nu=\dfrac{4.07\times10^{-19}}{2\times6.63\times10^{-34}}$

$\nu=3.069\times10^{14}\ Hz$

Hence, The frequency of the photon is $3.069\times10^{14}\ Hz$ .
