Answer:

ac = 3.92 m/s²

Explanation:

In this case the frictional force must balance the centripetal force for the car not to skid. Therefore,

Frictional Force = Centripetal Force

where,

Frictional Force = μ(Normal Force) = μ(weight) = μmg

Centripetal Force = (m)(ac)

Therefore,

μmg = (m)(ac)

ac = μg

where,

ac = magnitude of centripetal acceleration of car = ?

μ = coefficient of friction of tires (kinetic) = 0.4

g = 9.8 m/s²

Therefore,

ac = (0.4)(9.8 m/s²)

<u>ac = 3.92 m/s²</u>

Waste disposals cost less than recycling. true or false
Nana76 [90]

True.

Recycling programs in the United States have now become a major component  in today's waste management, unfortunately, recycling programs are not cost effective and are also considered to be one of most expensive ways of ridding waste.  According to author Harvey Black of the Environmental Health Perspectives Journal, in San Jose, California “it costs $28 per ton to landfill waste compared with $147 a ton to recycle” (Black 1006).

A ____ is a non solid state of matter in which the atoms and molecules are free to move past each other, as in a gas or liquid.
Licemer1 [7]
The answer is GAS. In a gas, the particles are in a completely random motion in any direction. And it is not solid. Hope I helped. Good luck

Which list of properties of alternation current is the most likely reason it was chosen over direct current to provide electrici
Paraphin [41]

Answer:

- Direct current is a current in which electrons flow in one direction only

- Alternating current is a current in which the direction of the electron flow reverses periodically - so, half a cycle forward, half a cycle backward

There are several advantages of using alternating currents for the transmission of electricity across a country, over large distances. The main advantages are:

- The voltage of alternating currents can be easily increased/decreased by using transformers. For instance, a transformer is used at the beginning of the transmission line to increase the voltage (electricity is transmitted at high voltage in order to reduce dissipated power), and then another transformer is used before the electricity enters the houses, in order to decrease the voltage. Transformers only work with alternating currents.

- It is easy to interrupt the flow of an alternating current, because its value naturally becomes zero every half a cycle, so this is useful in case the current must be interrupted.

The ground state energy of an oscillating electron is 1.23 eV. How much energy must be added to the electron to move it to the t
Vikki [24]

Answer:

  • The energy that must be added to the electron to move it to the third excited state is  -1.153 eV
  • The energy that must be added to the electron to move it to the fourth excited state is  -1.181 eV

Explanation:

Given;

Energy of electron in ground state (n = 1 ) = 1.23 eV

E₁ = 1.23 eV

Eₙ = E₁ /n²

where;

E₁ is the energy of the electron in ground state

n is the energy level,

For third excited state, n = 4

E₄ = E₁ /4²

E₄ = (1.23 eV) / 16

E₄ = 0.077 eV

Change in energy level, = E₄ - E₁ = 0.077 eV - 1.23 eV = -1.153 eV

The energy that must be added to the electron to move it to the third excited state is  -1.153 eV

For fourth excited state, n = 5

E₅ = E₁ /5²

E₄ = (1.23 eV) / 25

E₄ = 0.049 eV

Change in energy level, = E₅ - E₁ = 0.049 eV - 1.23 eV = -1.181 eV

The energy that must be added to the electron to move it to the fourth excited state is  -1.181 eV

A bird is about 6.26.2 in.​ long, with a​ thin, dark bill and a​ wide, white wing stripe. If the bird can fly 9292 mi with the w
Trava [24]

Answer:

209 mph

Explanation:

V = Speed of bird in still air

v = Speed of wind = 44 mph

Consider the motion of the bird with the wind

D_{1} = distance traveled with the wind = 9292 mi

t_{1} = time taken to travel the distance with wind

Time taken to travel the distance with wind is given as

t_{1} = \frac{D_{1}}{V + v}

t_{1} = \frac{9292}{V + 44}                              eq-1

Consider the motion of the bird with the wind

D_{2} = distance traveled against the wind = 6060 mi

t_{2} = time taken to travel the distance against wind

Time taken to travel the distance against wind is given as

t_{2} = \frac{D_{2}}{V + v}

t_{2} = \frac{6060}{V - 44}                              eq-2

As per the question,

Time taken with the wind = Time taken against the wind

t_{1} = t_{2}

\frac{9292}{V + 44} = \frac{6060}{V - 44}

(9292) (V - 44) = (6060) (V + 44)

9292V - 408848 = 6060V + 266640

3232V = 675488

V = 209 mph
