Two horizontal curves on a bobsled run are banked at the same angle, but one has twice the radius of the other. The safe speed (

no friction needed to stay on the run) for the smaller radius curve is v. What is the safe speed on the larger radius curve?

Answer:

safe speed for the larger radius track u= √2 v

Explanation:

The sum of the forces on either side is the same, the only difference is the radius of curvature and speed.

Also given that r_1= smaller radius

r_2= larger radius curve

r_2= 2r_1..............i

let u be the speed of larger radius curve

now, \sum F = \frac{mv^2}{r_1} =\frac{mu^2}{r_2}................ii

form i and ii we can write

v^2= \frac{1}{2} u^2

⇒u= √2 v

therefore, safe speed for the larger radius track u= √2 v

Answer:

359 m/s

Explanation:

Highest frequency a person can hear is 20,000Hz.

f = c × λ

Frequency = Wave speed × Wavelength

Wavelength = 20,000 ÷ 343 = 58.31m

Wavespeed = Frequency ÷ Wavelength

c = 20,950 ÷ 58.31 = 359.3 m/s

= 359 m/s (3 s.f.)
