As the centripetal force<span> acts upon an </span>object moving <span>in a </span>circle<span> at constant speed, the </span>force<span> always acts inward as the velocity of the </span>object<span> is directed tangent to the </span>circle. ... In fact, whenever the unbalanced centripetal force<span> acts perpendicular to the direction of </span>motion<span>, the speed of the </span>object will<span> remain constant.</span>
If an airplane is flying at 300 km/h to the east and is facing a headwind of 18.0 km/h, the final velocity can be calculated using simple vector addition. In this case, the planes velocity is positive (+330 km/h) and head wind has a negative component (-18.0 km/h). Vector addition yields +330 km / h + (-18.0 km /h) = 312 km / h.
Answer:

Explanation:
<u>Frictional Force
</u>
When the car is moving along the curve, it receives a force that tries to take it from the road. It's called centripetal force and the formula to compute it is:

The centripetal acceleration a_c is computed as

Where v is the tangent speed of the car and r is the radius of curvature. Replacing the formula into the first one

For the car to keep on the track, the friction must have the exact same value of the centripetal force and balance the forces. The friction force is computed as

The normal force N is equal to the weight of the car, thus

Equating both forces

Simplifying

Substituting the values


Answer:

Explanation:
Power is related to energy by the following relationship:

where
P is the power used
E is the energy used
t is the time elapsed
In this problem, we know that
- the power of the fan is P = 120 W
- the fan has been running for one hour, which corresponds to a time of

So we can re-arrange the previous equation to find E, the energy (in the form of thermal energy) released by the fan:
