Answer:

maximum possible velocity = \sqrt{ugR}

Explanation:

centripetal acceleration when the  car is going in the circle must be less than the maximum friction for the car to not slip.

centripetal acceleration \frac{mv^{2}}{r}

where v is the velocity of car and r is the radius of circle

maximum friction = umg

where u is the coefficient of static friction.

thereforeumg\geq \frac{mv^{2}}{R}

therefore maximum possible velocity = \sqrt{ugR}

A loaded barge has a mass of 1 500 000 kg and is traveling at 3 m/s. If a tugboat applies an opposing force of 12 000 N for 10 s
yan [13]

Answer:

Explanation:

Initial momentum is 1.5e6(3) = 4.5e6 kg•m/s

An impulse results in a change of momentum

The tug applied impulse is 12000(10) = 120000 N•s or 0.12e6 kg•m/s

The remaining momentum is 4.5e6 - 0.12e6 =  4.38e6 kg•m/s

The barge velocity is now 4.38e6 / 1.5e6 = 2.92 m/s

The tug applies 0.012e6 N•s of impulse each second.

The initial barge momentum will be zero in

t = 4.5e6 / 0.012e6 = 375 s or 6 minutes and 15 seconds

To stop the barge in one minute(60 s), the tug would have to apply

4.5e6 / 60 = 75000 N•s /s or 75 000 N

A police car with its 300-Hz siren is moving toward a warehouse at 30 m/s, intending to crash through the door. The sound bounce
Lady bird [3.3K]

Answer: The frequency heard will be f = 275.675Hz

Explanation: When an object emitting sound is moving, it occurs a phenomenon called Doppler shift or Doppler effect. What happens is that the sound gets higher when the moving object comes closer the observer and becomes lower after it passes, This change is due to the quantity of waves that passes through an area in an unit of time.

The formula to calculate the Doppler effect is as follows

f = (\frac{c}{c+Vs}) · f₀

f is the observed frequency;

c is the speed of sound;

Vs is velocity of the source;

f₀ is the emitted frequency of source;

Substituting and calculating,

f = \frac{340}{340+30} · 300

f = 275.675 Hz

Thus, the frequency heard by the police officer is 275.675Hz.

Does sand stay sand forever?
Gemiola [76]

Answer:

No sand doesn't stay sand forever.

Explanation:

  • We may have a thought that the sand we see on the beach areas are always the same one for eternal, but it is not true.
  • Due to different activities like beach nourishment, sand replenishment etc. the sand in the beach areas are changed and replaced.
  • If the sand remained there for long time, it also affects the sand eating organisms and plants.
