A woman places her briefcase on the backseat of her car. As she drives to work, the car negotiates an unbanked curve in the road

that can be regarded as an arc of a circle of radius 54.5 m. While on the curve, the speed of the car is 12.4 m/s at the instant the briefcase starts to slide across the backseat toward the side of the car. What force causes the centripetal acceleration of the briefcase when it is stationary relative to the car? Under what condition does the briefcase begin to move relative to the car?

Answer:

The force that cause the centripetal acceleration is the static friction, and the briefcase begin to move if the force of centripetal acceleration exceeds the force due to the static friction

Explanation:

Given data:

r = radius = 54.5 m

v = speed of the car = 12.4 m/s

The force due to the static friction that is exerted on the curve in the road is what causes the centripetal acceleration. If the force due to centripetal acceleration is greater than the force of static friction, then the briefcase will begin to roll.

The composition of the protoplanetary disk varies with distance from the protostar due to temperature.
lesantik [10]

Answer:

b) 1. Iron, silicates, carbon

   2. Water

   3. Methane, Ammonia, Carbon Dioxide.

Explanation:

Protoplanetry disk is the disk of gases and clouds of dust that rotates around the newly made star. The temperature of the protoplanetry disk actually determines the type of the planet that is to be formed. Inner part of the protoplanetry disk is closer to the sun thats why it is the hottest and denser part and composed of the materials like Iron, silicates, carbon as they have high melting points. Then comes those materials that exist in the solid form at lower temperatures such as the volatile materials like water. Ater that the protoplanetry disk is made of highly volatile materials that exists in solid from only at low coldest temperatures. So the outer part of the protoplanetry disk  is made up of the Methane, Ammonia and Carbon Dioxide.
