We will look at an example of a banked curve. In this case the normal force provides the needed radial acceleration. This allows

the vehicle to negotiate the curve without having to rely solely on friction. An engineer proposes to rebuild the curve, banking it so that, at a certain speed v, no friction at all is needed for the car to make the curve. At what angle β should the curve be banked if v = 25 m/s, (56 mi/h) and R=250m?

Answer:

The bank angle \beta\\ = 14.30 degrees

Explanation:

In engineering, banking a curve reduces the centripetal force on the cars as they turn round the bend. this helps prevent them from sliding off the road.

The bank angle can be calculated using the formula:

tan \beta =\frac{v^{2}}{gR}

where v = velocity of the car = 25 m/s

R = radius of the bank = 250 m

g = acceleration due to gravity = 9.81 m/s^{2}

tan \beta =\frac{25^{2}}{9.81 \times 250}

tan\beta =0.25484

\beta = tan^{-1} (0.25484)= 14.30 degrees

There fore, the bank angle is approximately 14 degrees

An electromagnetic wave has a wavelength of 1.3m what is the frequency of wave
larisa86 [58]
V = f * wavelength
as we know electromagnetic wave has speed equal to light, so

3 * 10^8 = f * 1.3
f = 2.3 * 10^8 hertz
f = 230 mega hertz

Imagine that you have a 6.50 l gas tank and a 4.50 l gas tank. you need to fill one tank with oxygen and the other with acetylen
Margarita [4]
V₁(O2) = 6.50<span>  L                
</span>p₁(O2) = 155 atm          
V₂(acetylene) = <span>4.50 L                   
</span>p₂(acetylene) =?                             

According to Boyle–Mariotte law (At constant temperature and unchanged amount of gas, the product of pressure and volume is constant) we can compare two gases that have ideal behavior and the law can be usefully expressed as:

V₁/p₁ = V₂/p₂

6.5/155 = 4.5/p₂

0.042 x p₂ = 4.5

p₂ = 107.3 atm

A skydiver falls toward the ground at a constant velocity. Which statement best applies Newton’s laws of motion to explain the s
vlabodo [156]

Answer:

The answer is (a.) An upward force balances the downward force gravity on the skydiver

The skydiver is falling at a constant velocity because the upward force is balancing the downward force of gravity. According to Newton, the opposite force balance each other. This is stated in Newton's second law of motion.

A car drives 23m/s east for 35 seconds. What is the displacement?
Lina20 [59]

Answer:

805m

Explanation:

Speed = displacement/time

Speed = 23m/s

Time = 35s

Displacement = speed × time

= 23 × 35

= 805m
