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

Two balloons (m = 0.021 kg) are separated by a distance of d = 16 m. They are released from rest and observed to have an instant
evablogger [386]

(a) 2.56\cdot 10^{-5} C

According to Newton's second law, the force experienced by each balloon is given by:

F = ma

where

m = 0.021 kg is the mass

a = 1.1 m/s^2 is the acceleration

Substituting, we found:

F=(0.021)(1.1)=0.0231 N

The electrostatic force between the two balloons can be also written as

F=k\frac{Q^2}{r^2}

where

k is the Coulomb's constant

Q is the charge on each balloon

r = 16 m is their separation

Since we know the value of F, we can find Q, the magnitude of the charge on each balloon:

Q=\sqrt{\frac{Fr^2}{k}}=\sqrt{\frac{(0.0231)(16)^2}{9\cdot 10^9}}=2.56\cdot 10^{-5} C

(b) 1.6\cdot 10^{14} electrons

The magnitude of the charge of one electron is

e=1.6\cdot 10^{-19}C

While the magnitude of the charge on one balloon is

Q=2.56\cdot 10^{-5} C

This charge can be written as

Q=Ne

where N is the number of electrons that are responsible for this charge. Solving for N, we find:

N=\frac{Q}{e}=\frac{2.56\cdot 10^{-5}}{1.6\cdot 10^{-19}}=1.6\cdot 10^{14}

What object currently has the most gravitational potential energy?<br><br>A, B, C, or D​
eduard

Answer:

A

Explanation:

this because

gravitational potential energy = mass x height x gravitational field strength

so let's assume mass is 2 kg and gravitational field strength is 10 N /kg

so when height is very low, take it as 3 m

gravitational potential energy= 2 x 3 x 10 = 60 j

but when height is 6m

gravitational potential energy = 2 x 6 x 10 = 120 j

so when the height is the greatest, the gravitational potential energy is the highest

so A is the heighest so it has the highest gravitational potential energy.

hope this helps

please mark it brainliest :D

A wave amplitude 0.36m interferes with a second wave of amplitude 0.22m traveling in the same direction. What is the largest res
DerKrebs [107]
The largest resultant amplitude would be that created by constructive interference, basically when the two waves are of the same phase, so it would be 0.36m+0.22m= 0.58 m.

A rocket moves upward from rest with an acceleration of 40 m/s2 for 5 seconds. It then runs out of fuel and continues to move up
Snezhnost [94]

Answer:

Maximum height of rocket  = 2538.74 m

Explanation:

We have equation of motion s = ut + 0.5 at²

For first 5 seconds

          s = 0 x 5 + 0.5 x 40 x 5² = 500 m

Now let us find out time after 5 seconds rocket move upward.

We have the equation of motion v = u + at

After 5 seconds velocity of rocket

         v = 0 + 40 x 5 = 200 m/s

After 5 seconds the velocity reduces 9.8m/s per second due to gravity.

Time of flying after 5 seconds

          t=\frac{200}{9.81}=20.38s

Distance traveled in this 20.38 s

          s = 200 x 20.38 - 0.5 x 9.81 x 20.38² = 2038.74 m

Maximum height of rocket = 500 +2038.74 = 2538.74 m
