Answer:

Yes. Towards the center. 8210 N.

Explanation:

Let's first investigate the free-body diagram of the car. The weight of the car has two components: x-direction: towards the center of the curve and y-direction: towards the ground. Note that the ground is not perpendicular to the surface of the Earth is inclined 16 degrees.

In order to find whether the car slides off the road, we should use Newton's Second Law in the direction of x: F = ma.

The net force is equal to F = \frac{mv^2}{R} = \frac{1100\times (26.3)^2}{68} = 1.1\times 10^4~N

Note that 95 km/h is equal to 26.3 m/s.

This is the centripetal force and equal to the x-component of the applied force.

F = mg\sin(16) = 1100(9.8)\sin(16) = 2.97\times10^3

As can be seen from above, the two forces are not equal to each other. This means that a friction force is needed towards the center of the curve.

The amount of the friction force should be 8.21\times 10^3~N

Qualitatively, on a banked curve, a car is thrown off the road if it is moving fast. However, if the road has enough friction, then the car stays on the road and move safely. Since the car intends to slide off the road, then the static friction between the tires and the road must be towards the center in order to keep the car in the road.

1) A net force of 75.5 N is applied horizontally to slide a 225 kg crate across the floor.
dimulka [17.4K]

Answer:

The acceleration of the crate is 0.3356\,\frac{m}{s^2}

Explanation:

Recall the formula that relates force,mass and acceleration from newton's second law;

F=m\,a

Then in our case, we know the force applied and we know the mass of the crate, so we can solve for the acceleration as shown below:

F=m\,a\\75.5\,N=225\,\,kg\,\,a\\a=\frac{75.5}{225} \,\frac{m}{s^2} \\a=0.3356\,\,\frac{m}{s^2}

A proton and an electron are moving in the +x direction in a magnetic field in the +z
Cloud [144]

Answer:

Explanation:

A proton and electron are moving in the positive x direction, this shows that their velocity will be in the positive x direction

V = v•i

Magnetic field Is the positive z direction

B = B•k

A. For proton.

Proton has a positive charge of q

Direction of force on proton

Force is given as

F = q(v×B)

F = q( v•i × B•k)

F = qvB (i×k)

From vectors i×k = -j

F = -qvB •j

Then, for the positive charge, the force will act in the negative direction of the y-axis

B. For electron

Electron has a negative of -q

Direction of force on proton

Force is given as

F = q(v×B)

F = -q( v•i × B•k)

F = -qvB (i×k)

From vectors i×k = -j

F = --qvB •j

F = qvB •j

Then, for the negative charge, the force will act in the positive direction of the y-axis
