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.

What are the main ideas of physical science
Mademuasel [1]
Hysical science is defined as the study of observable phenomena in the universe. 

<span>the main idea of physical science is known as the "scientific method". </span>

<span>this method states: </span>

<span>observe a "real" ( not imaginary ) phenomena. </span>

<span>make a hypothesis ( or theory / idea ) that EXPLAINS this phenomena. </span>

<span>conduct a real experiment to test this hyothesis. </span>

<span>confirm that the experiment validates the original hypothesis and if necessary amend the theory. </span>

<span>it has worked so well that the very communication you are having with me is a result of the wonders of physical science. </span>

During a single-replacement reaction, a more-active metal will replace a less-active metal in a compound. Which single-replaceme
son4ous [18]

Answer:

Mg will replace Ag in a compound

Explanation:

A single replacement reaction is driven by the position of ions on the activity series.

As a rule of thumb, the position of metal ions on the activity series determines their reactivity.

Metal ions that are above another are more reactive and they will displace those that are lower.

Generally, activity increases as we go up the group.

Mg ions are higher than Ag ions on the series so, Mg will displace Ag from a solution.

If an object went from 0 m/s to 6 m/s in 1.7 seconds after a 10 N force was applied to it; what is the object's mass? No links p
Mashcka [7]

The force acting on the object is constant, so the acceleration of the object is also constant. By definition of average acceleration, this acceleration was

<em>a</em> = ∆<em>v</em> / ∆<em>t</em> = (6 m/s - 0) / (1.7 s) ≈ 3.52941 m/s²

By Newton's second law, the magnitude of the force <em>F</em> is proportional to the acceleration <em>a</em> according to

<em>F</em> = <em>m a</em>

where <em>m</em> is the object's mass. Solving for <em>m</em> gives

<em>m</em> = <em>F</em> / <em>a</em> = (10 N) / (3.52941 m/s²) ≈ 2.8 kg

The photon energies used in different types of medical x-ray imaging vary widely, depending upon the application. Single dental
pav-90 [236]

A) 5.0\cdot 10^{-11} m

The energy of an x-ray photon used for single dental x-rays is

E=25 keV = 25,000 eV \cdot (1.6\cdot 10^{-19} J/eV)=4\cdot 10^{-15} J

The energy of a photon is related to its wavelength by the equation

E=\frac{hc}{\lambda}

where

h=6.63\cdot 10^{-34}Js is the Planck constant

c=3\cdot 10^8 m/s is the speed of light

\lambda is the wavelength

Re-arranging the equation for the wavelength, we find

\lambda=\frac{hc}{E}=\frac{(6.63\cdot 10^{-34} Js)(3\cdot 10^8 m/s)}{4\cdot 10^{-15}J}=5.0\cdot 10^{-11} m

B) 2.0\cdot 10^{-11} m

The energy of an x-ray photon used in microtomography is 2.5 times greater than the energy of the photon used in part A), so its energy is

E=2.5 \cdot (4\cdot 10^{-15}J)=1\cdot 10^{-14} J

And so, by using the same formula we used in part A), we can calculate the corresponding wavelength:

\lambda=\frac{hc}{E}=\frac{(6.63\cdot 10^{-34} Js)(3\cdot 10^8 m/s)}{1\cdot 10^{-14}J}=2.0\cdot 10^{-11} m
