A car of mass m goes around a banked curve of radius r with speed v. If the road is frictionless due to ice, the car can still n

Sholpan [36]

Answer:

horizontal component of normal force is equal to the centripetal force on the car

Explanation:

As the car is moving with uniform speed in circle then the force required to move in the circle is towards the center of the circle

This force is due to friction force when car is moving in circle with uniform speed

Now it is given that car is moving on the ice surface such that the friction force is zero now

so here we can say that centripetal force is due to component of the normal force which is due to banked road

Now we have

$N sin\theta = \frac{mv^2}{R}$

$N cos\theta = mg$

so we have

$v = \sqrt{Rg tan\theta}$

so this is horizontal component of normal force is equal to the centripetal force on the car

A laser of wavelength 720 nm illuminates a double slit where the separation between the slits is 0.22 mm. Fringes are seen on a

kumpel [21]

Answer:

The appropriate solution is "2.78 mm".

Explanation:

Given:

$\lambda = 720 \ nm$

or,

$= 720\times 10^{-9} \ m$

$D=0.85 \ m$

$d = 0.22 \ mm$

or,

$=0.22 \times 10^{-3} \ m$

As we know,

Fringe width is:

⇒ $\beta=\frac{\lambda D}{d}$

hence,

Separation between second and third bright fringes will be:

⇒ $\theta=\beta=\frac{\lambda D}{d}$

$=\frac{720\times 10^{-9}\times 0.85}{0.22\times 10^{-3}}$

$=2.78\times 10^{-3} \ m$

or,

$=2.78 \ mm$

A firefighting crew uses a water cannon that shoots water at 25.0 m/s at a fixed angle of 53.0° above the horizontal. The fire-f

zysi [14]

Answer:

8.8 m and 52.5 m

Explanation:

The vertical component and horizontal component of water velocity leaving the hose are

$v_v = vsin(\alpha) = 25sin(53^0) = 25*0.8 = 19.97 m/s$

$v_h = vcos(\alpha) = 25cos(53^0) = 25*0.6 = 15 m/s$

Neglect air resistance, vertically speaking, gravitational acceleration g = -9.8m/s2 is the only thing that affects water motion. We can find the time t that it takes to reach the blaze 10m above ground level

$s = v_vt + gt^2/2$

$10 = 19.97t - 9.8t^2/2$

$4.9t^2 - 19.97t + 10 = 0$

$t= \frac{-b \pm \sqrt{b^2 - 4ac}}{2a}$

$t= \frac{19.9658877511823\pm \sqrt{(-19.9658877511823)^2 - 4*(4.9)*(10)}}{2*(4.9)}$

$t= \frac{19.9658877511823\pm14.24}{9.8}$

t = 3.49 or t = 0.58

We have 2 solutions for t, one is 0.58 when it first reach the blaze during the 1st shoot up, the other is 3.49s when it falls down

t is also the times it takes to travel across horizontally. We can use this to compute the horizontal distance between the fire-fighters and the building

$s_1 = v_ht_1 = 15*0.58 = 8.8 m$

$s_2 = v_ht_2 = 15*3.49 = 52.5m$

Instantaneous velocity, on the other hand, describes the motion of a body at one particular moment in time. Acceleration is a vector which shows the direction and magnitude of changes in velocity. Its standard units are meters per second per second, or meters per second squared. (this is for number 3)
