The force needed to keep a car from skidding on a curve varies inversely as the radius of the curve and jointly as the weight of
motikmotik

Explanation:

It is given that, the force needed to keep a car from skidding on a curve varies inversely as the radius of the curve and jointly as the weight of the car and the square of the car's speed such that,

F\propto \dfrac{mgv^2}{r}

F=\dfrac{kmgv^2}{r}

mg is the weight of the car

r is the radius of the curve

v is the speed of the car

Case 1.

F = 640 pounds

Weight of the car, W = mg = 2600 pound

Radius of the curve, r = 650 ft

Speed of the car, v = 40 mph

640=\dfrac{k(2600)(40)^2}{650}

k = 0.1

Case 2.

Radius of the curve, r = 750 ft

Speed of the car, v = 30 mph

F=\dfrac{0.1\times 2600\times (30)^2}{750}

F = 312 N

Hence, this is the required solution.

Wha is the frequency of a wave having a period equal to 18 seconds?
Rainbow [258]

Answer:

5.5 × 10-2 hertz

Explanation:

The time taken by a wave crest to travel a distance equal to the length of wave is known as wave period.

= 0.055 per second          (1 cycle per second = 1 Hertz)

Thus, we can conclude that the frequency of the wave is 5.5 X 10^{-2} hertz.

The tactile system is actually made up of two distinct skin senses.
Ludmilka [50]

The tactile system is actually made up of two distinct skin senses; protective and the discriminative system. The function of the protective system is to alert us to harmful stimuli. The receptors of the system are the hairs of our skin, head and genitals. The discriminative system is to show us what we are touching, where on our bodies is touching us and what are touching us. The receptors for his system are the hands, fingers, soles of feet and mouth and tongue.

Convert 15 joule into erg.​
GuDViN [60]

Answer:

<h2><u>Joule</u><u>:</u></h2>

1 Joule of work is said to be done when a force of 1 Newton is applied to move/displace a body by 1 metre.

1 Joule= 1 Newton × 1 metre

1 Newton is the amount of force required to accelerate body of mass 1 kg by 1m/s²

So units of N is kgm/s²

So,

1 Joule

=1kgm/s² × m

=1kgm²/s²

<h2><u>Erg</u><u>:</u></h2>

1 erg is the amount of work done by a force of 1 dyne exerted for a distance of one centimetre.

1 Erg =1 Dyne × 1 cm

1 dyne is the force required to cause a mass of 1 gram to accelerate at a rate of 1cm/s².

1 Erg=1 gmcm/s² × cm

1 Erg=1 gmcm/s² × cm=1gmcm²/s²

this is what you need to convert 1gmcm²/s² to 1kgm²/s²

<h3><u>what you need to know for conversion</u></h3>

[1gm=0.001kg

1cm²

=1cm ×1cm

=0.01 m × 0.01 m

=0.0001m²

second remains constant

]

So,

1gmcm²/s²

=0.001kg×0.0001m²/s²

=0.001kg×0.0001m²/s² =0.0000001kgm²/s²

Hence,

<h3><u>1 Erg</u><u>=</u><u>0.0000001</u><u> </u><u>Joule</u></h3><h3><u>1</u><u> </u><u>Joule</u><u>=</u><u>1</u><u>0</u><u>,</u><u>0</u><u>0</u><u>0</u><u>,</u><u>0</u><u>0</u><u>0</u><u> </u><u>Erg</u></h3>

<h2>⇒15 J=15×10000000 Erg</h2><h2> =150000000 Erg</h2><h2> =1.5×10⁶ Erg</h2>
