If a car takes a banked curve at less than the ideal speed, friction is needed to keep it from sliding toward the inside of the

curve (a real problem on icy mountain roads). (a) Calculate the ideal speed in (m/s) to take a 100 m radius curve banked at 15°. m/s (b) What is the minimum coefficient of friction needed for a frightened driver to take the same curve at 15.0 km/h?

Answer:

a. v₁ = 16.2 m/s

b. μ = 0.251

Explanation:

Given:

θ = 15 ° , r = 100 m , v₂ = 15.0 km / h

a.

To determine v₁ to take a 100 m radius curve banked at 15 °

tan θ  = v₁² / r * g

v₁ = √ r * g * tan θ

v₁ = √ 100 m * 9.8 m/s² * tan 15° = 16.2 m/s

b.

To determine μ friction needed for a frightened

v₂ = 15.0 km / h * 1000 m / 1 km * 1h / 60 minute * 1 minute / 60 seg

v₂ = 4.2 m/s

fk = μ * m * g

a₁ = v₁² / r = 16.2 ² / 100 m = 2.63 m/s²

a₂ = v₂² / r = 4.2 ² / 100 m = 0.18 m/s²

F₁ = m * a₁  ,  F₂ = m * a₂

fk = F₁ - F₂   ⇒  μ * m * g = m * ( a₁ - a₂)

μ * g = a₁ - a₂   ⇒  μ = a₁ - a₂ / g

μ = [ 2.63 m/s² - 0.18 m/s² ] / (9.8 m/s²)

μ = 0.251

Be sure to answer all parts. Compare the wavelengths of an electron (mass = 9.11 × 10−31 kg) and a proton (mass = 1.67 × 10−27 k
Harrizon [31]

Explanation:

Given that,

(a) Speed, v=6.66\times 10^6\ m/s

Mass of the electron, m_e=9.11\times 10^{-31}\ kg

Mass of the proton, m_p=1.67\times 10^{-27}\ kg

The wavelength of the electron is given by :

\lambda_e=\dfrac{h}{m_ev}

\lambda_e=\dfrac{6.63\times 10^{-34}}{9.11\times 10^{-31}\times 6.66\times 10^6}

\lambda_e=1.09\times 10^{-10}\ m

The wavelength of the proton is given by :

\lambda_p=\dfrac{h}{m_p v}

\lambda_p=\dfrac{6.63\times 10^{-34}}{1.67\times 10^{-27}\times 6.66\times 10^6}

\lambda_p=5.96\times 10^{-14}\ m

(b) Kinetic energy, K=1.71\times 10^{-15}\ J

The relation between the kinetic energy and the wavelength is given by :

\lambda_e=\dfrac{h}{\sqrt{2m_eK}}

\lambda_e=\dfrac{6.63\times 10^{-34}}{\sqrt{2\times 9.11\times 10^{-31}\times 1.71\times 10^{-15}}}

\lambda_e=1.18\times 10^{-11}\ m

\lambda_p=\dfrac{h}{\sqrt{2m_pK}}

\lambda_p=\dfrac{6.63\times 10^{-34}}{\sqrt{2\times 1.67\times 10^{-27}\times 1.71\times 10^{-15}}}

\lambda_p=2.77\times 10^{-13}\ m

Hence, this is the required solution.

A man of mass 85 kg runs up a flight of stairs of height 4.6 m in a time period
seraphim [82]

Explanation:

a) Power = work / time = force × distance / time

P = Fd/t

P = (85 kg × 9.8 m/s²) (4.6 m) / (12 s)

P ≈ 319 W

b) P = Fd/t

0.70 (319 W) = (m × 9.8 m/s²) (4.6 m) / (9.6 s)

m = 47.6 kg
