A stunt driver rounds a banked, circular curve. The driver rounds the curve at a high, constant speed, such that the car is just

on the verge of skidding to the outside of the curve. A front view of a car driving on a banked curve. The cross section of the banked road is constructed like a ramp. The car drives transversely to the slope of the ramp, so that the wheels of one side of the car are lower than the wheels on the other side of the car. Which forces are directly responsible for producing the car’s centripetal acceleration? Coriolis force centripetal force frictional force normal force gravitational force

Answer: C

Frictional force

Explanation:

The description of the question above is an example of a circular motion.

For a car travelling in a curved path, the frictional force between the tyres and the road surface will provide the centripetal force.

Since the road is banked, and the cross section of the banked road is constructed like a ramp. The car drives transversely to the slope of the ramp, so that the wheels of one side of the car are lower than the wheels on the other side of the car, for cornering the banked road, the car will not rely only on the frictional force.

Therefore, the correct answer is option C - the frictional force.

Bohr’s atomic model differed from Rutherford's because it explained that electrons exist in specified energy levels surrounding
insens350 [35]

Answer:

electrons exist in specified energy levels

Explanation:

In its gold-foil scattering with alpha particles, Rutherford proved that the plum-pudding model of the atom theorised by Thomson was wrong.

From his experiment, Rutherford inferred that the atom actually consists of a very small nucleus, where all the positive charge is concentrated, and the rest of the atom is basically empty, with the electrons (negatively charged) orbiting around the nucleus at very large distance.

However, Rutherford did not specify anything about the orbits of the electrons. Later, Bohr predicted that the electrons actually orbit the nucleus in specific orbits, each orbit corresponding to a specific energy level. Bohr's model found confirmation in the observation of the emission spectrum lines: when an electron in one of the higher energy level jumps down into an orbit with lower energy, the atom emits a photon which has an energy exactly equal to the difference in energy between the two orbits (and this energy of the photon corresponds to a precise wavelength).
