The maximum centripetal acceleration a car can sustain without skidding out of a curved path is 9.40 m/s2 . If the car is travel

ing at a constant speed of 40.0 m/s on level ground, what is the radius R of the tightest unbanked curve it can negotiate?

Answer:

The radius = 170.21 m

Explanation:

The given data are : -

The centripetal acceleration of a car = 9.40 m/s².

Speed of a car = 40.0 m/s .

We have to calculate the radius ( r ) of of curve.

The centripetal acceleration ( a ) is given by

a = \frac{v^{2} }{r}

r = \frac{v^{2} }{a}  = \frac{40^{2} }{9.40}  = \frac{1600}{9.40} = 170.21 m

Two pebbles, Pebble A and Pebble B, are thrown horizontally with the same force. Pebble A's mass is 3 times the
Hitman42 [59]

Answer:

Pebble A has 1/3 the acceleration as pebble B.

Explanation:

F = m×a

mass of a = 3 × mass of b (m_a = 3 × m_b)

Same starting force, F

m_a = mass of a

m_b = mass of b

a_a = acceleration of a

a_b = acceleration of b

F = m_a × a_a = m_b × a_b

3 × m_b × a_a = m_b × a_b

3 × a_a = a_b

OR

a_a = a_b / 3

The velocity time graph of a car shown below a) Calculate the magnitude of displacement of the car in 40 seconds. b) During whic
Gekata [30.6K]

Answer:

a) 0 metres

b) From time 0 s to 10 s , the car was accelerated. Its velocity accelerated from 0m/s to 20 m/s

c) 20 m/s

Explanation:

a) <em>Formula of displacement= velocity x time</em>

time=40 s

velocity =0 m/s

∴ displacement= 0 x 40 = 0 m

Magnitude of displacement is 0 m

b) The increase in velocity shows that there has been acceleration.

c) The average velocity of the car is =\frac{0+40}{2\\}   {initial velocity + final velocity}

                                                            =\frac{40}{2}

                                                             =20

Therefore, the magnitude of the average velocity  of the car is 20 m/s

A 5.5-kW resistance heater in a water heater runs for 3 hours to raise the water temperature to the desired level. Determine the
Stella [2.4K]

Answer:

16.5 kwh and 59400 kJ.

Explanation:

kWh is a measure of energy that is equivalent to the power in kw times the number of hours the device worked.

In this case, it would be equal to:

E_{kwh}=5.5kw*3h=16.5kwh

1 kw also means 1kj of energy spent per second. With this, we calculate the amount of energy in kJ spent by the resistance:

E_{kJ}=5.5\frac{kJ}{s}*3h*\frac{3600s}{1h} = 59400 kJ
