There are missing data in the text of the problem (found them on internet):
- speed of the car at the top of the hill: v=15 m/s
- radius of the hill: r=100 m

Solution:

(a) The car is moving by circular motion. There are two forces acting on the car: the weight of the car W=mg (downwards) and the normal force N exerted by the road (upwards). The resultant of these two forces is equal to the centripetal force, m \frac{v^2}{r}, so we can write:
mg-N=m \frac{v^2}{r} (1)
By rearranging the equation and substituting the numbers, we find N:
N=mg-m \frac{v^2}{r}=(975 kg)(9.81 m/s^2)-(975 kg) \frac{(15 m/s)^2}{100 m}=7371 N

(b) The problem is exactly identical to step (a), but this time we have to use the mass of the driver instead of the mass of the car. Therefore, we find:
N=mg-m \frac{v^2}{r}=(62 kg)(9.81 m/s^2)-(62 kg) \frac{(15 m/s)^2}{100 m}=469 N

(c) To find the car speed at which the normal force is zero, we can just require N=0 in eq.(1). and the equation becomes:
mg=m \frac{v^2}{r}
from which we find
v= \sqrt{gr}= \sqrt{(9.81 m/s^2)(100 m)}=31.3 m/s

What’s the velocity of a ball falling with 100 joules of kinetic energy and a mass of 2 kilograms
ohaa [14]

Answer:

the velocity is 10 m/s

Explanation:

Using the expression for kinetic energy we have:

Ek=\frac{1}{2} *m*v^{2} \\\\Ek=100J\\m=2kg\\v=\sqrt{(2*100/2)}\\ v=10[m/s]

Explain resolution of Force​
Margarita [4]

Answer:

it is defined as splitting up the given force into a number of components, without changing its effects on the body is called resolution of forces. A force is generally resolved along with two mutually perpendicular directions.

How is the electrostatic force affected when the magnitude of a charge is doubled?
BaLLatris [955]
The magnitude of the electrostatic force between two charges is given by:
F=k_e  \frac{q_1 q_2}{r^2}
where
ke is the Coulomb's constant
q1 and q2 are the two charges
r is the separation between the two charges

We can see that the magnitude of the force is directly proportional to the charges. This means that when one of the charges is doubled, the magnitude of the electrostatic force will double as well, so the correct answer is
A) <span>The magnitude of the electrostatic force doubles</span>
