Answer:

Radius=15.773 m

Explanation:

Given data

v=29.5 km/h=8.2 m/s

μs=0.435

To find

Radius R

Solution

The acceleration is a centripetal acceleration  which is experienced by the bicycle given by

a=v^{2}/R

This acceleration is only due to static force which given as

f=ma\\f=m(v^{2}/R )

The maximum value of the static force is given as

Fs_{max}=u_{s}F_{N}

where

FN is normal force equal to mass*gravity

Therefore when the car is on the verge of sliding

f=fs_{max}\\ m(v^{2}/R )=u_{s}mg

Therefore the minimum radius should be found by the bicycle move without  sliding

So

v^{2}/R=u_{s}g\\  R=v^{2}/u_{s}g\\R=(8.2)^{2}/(0.435*9.8)\\R=15.773m

Increase the accurancy of a scientific experiment
ArbitrLikvidat [17]
The best way to increase the accuracy of a scientific experiment is to have a detailed plan of action for conducting the experiment. You should also repeat the experiment several times to ensure that you get the same result(s) consistently.<span />

A uniform rod of length L rests on a frictionless horizontal surface. The rod pivots about a fixed frictionless axis at one end.
Svet_ta [14]

Answer: a) 0.315 (V/L)

Explanation:

From Conservation of angular momentum, we know that

L1 = L2 ,

Therefore MV L/2 = ( Irod + Ib) x W

M/4 x V x L/2 = (M (L/2)^2 + 1/3xMxL^2) x W

M/8 X VL = (ML^2/16 + ML^2 /3 )

After elimination we have,

V/8 = 19/48 x L x W

W = 48/8 x V/19L = 6/19 x V/L

Therefore W = (0.136)X V/L

What type of electrical cord has a ground?<br><br> 3 pronged cord<br><br> 2 pronged cord
Kisachek [45]
<h3>Answer: A) 3 pronged cord</h3>

Explanation:

One prong is known as the hot wire, where the electricity comes in, while the second prong is the neutral wire and electricity leaves. Recall that a circuit must be made for electrons to flow. This means that electrons enters your house through the transmission wires and then the electrons leave along the same lines they entered (just along a different wire).

This set up describes a 2 pronged cord. Adding a third prong allows for a grounding to happen. In the event of an electrical surge, when too many electrons are flowing, disaster is likely to happen without some kind of safety features. The grounding prong allows electrons to seek the ground. You can think of it like a drain in a bathtub when too much water gets in the tub.
