A 1500 kg car drives around a flat 200-m-diameter circular track at 25m/s. What are the magnitude and direction of the net force

on the car? What causes this force?

The correct answer to the question is : 9375 N.

CALCULATION:

As per the question, the mass of the car  m = 1500 Kg.

The diametre of the circular track D = 200 m.

Hence, the radius of the circular path R = \frac{D}{2}

                                                                  = \frac{200}{2}\ m

                                                                  = 100 m.

The velocity of the truck v = 25 m/s.

When a body moves in a circular path, the body needs a centripetal force which helps the body stick to the orbit. It acts along the radius and towards the centre.

Hence, the force acting on the car is centripetal force.

The magnitude of the centripetal force is calculated as -

                              Force F = \frac{mv^2}{R}

                                            =  \frac{1500\times (25)^2}{100}\ N

                                            = 9375 N.           [ANS}        

The centripetal force is provided to the car in two ways. It is the friction which provides the necessary centripetal force. Sometimes friction is not sufficient. At that time, the road is banked to some extent which provides the necessary centripetal force.

Tutorial Exercise An unstable atomic nucleus of mass 1.83 10-26 kg initially at rest disintegrates into three particles. One of
kogti [31]

Answer:

A) v3 = -[6.29 × 10^(6)]j^ - [7.06 × 10^(6)]i^

B) K_total = 373.08 × 10^(-15) J

Explanation:

We are given;

Mass of unstable atomic nucleus; M = 1.83 × 10^(-26) kg

Mass of first particle; m1 = 5.03 × 10^(-27) kg

Speed of first particle in y-direction; v1 = (6 × 10^(6) m/s) j^

Mass of second particle; m2 = 8.47 × 10^(-27) kg

Speed of second particle in x - direction; v2 = (4 × 10^(6) m/s) i^

Now, we don't have the mass of the third particle but since we are told the unstable atomic nucleus disintegrates into 3 particles, thus;

M = m1 + m2 + m3

1.83 × 10^(-26) = (5.03 × 10^(-27)) + (8.47 × 10^(-27)) + m3

m3 = (1.83 × 10^(-26)) - (13.5 × 10^(-27))

m3 = 4.8 × 10^(-27) kg

A) Applying law of conservation of momentum, we have;

MV = (m1 × v1) + (m2 × v2) + (m3 × v3)

Now, the unstable atomic nucleus was at rest before disintegration, thus V = 0 m/s.

Thus, we now have;

0 = (m1 × v1) + (m2 × v2) + (m3 × v3)

We want to find the velocity of the third particle v3. Let's make it the subject of the formula;

v3 = [(m1 × v1) + (m2 × v2)]/(-m3)

Plugging in the relevant values, we have;

v3 = [(5.03 × 10^(-27) × 6 × 10^(6))j^ + (8.47 × 10^(-27) × 4 × 10^(6))i^]/(-4.8 × 10^(-27))

v3 = [(30.18 × 10^(-21))j^ + (33.88 × 10^(-21))i^]/(-4.8 × 10^(-27))

v3 = -[6.29 × 10^(6)]j^ - [7.06 × 10^(6)]i^

B) Formula for kinetic energy is;

K = ½mv²

Now,total kinetic energy is;

K_total = K1 + K2 + K3

K1 = ½ × 5.03 × 10^(-27) × (6 × 10^(6))²

K1 = 90.54 × 10^(-15) J

K2 = ½ × 8.47 × 10^(-27) × (4 × 10^(6))²

K2 = 67.76 × 10^(-15)

To find K3, let's first find the magnitude of v3 because it's still in vector form.

Thus;

v3 = √[(-6.29 × 10^(6))² + (-7.06 × 10^(6))²]

v3 = 9.46 × 10^(6) m/s

K3 = ½ × 4.8 × 10^(-27) × (9.46 × 10^(6))²

K3 = 214.78 × 10^(-15) J

K_total = (90.54 × 10^(-15)) + (67.76 × 10^(-15)) + (214.78 × 10^(-15))

K_total = 373.08 × 10^(-15) J

It was once recorded that a Jaguar
Artyom0805 [142]

Answer:

71.85 m/s

Explanation:

Given the following :

Length of skid marks left by jaguar (s) = 290 m

Skidding Acceleration (a) = - 8.90m/s²

Final velocity of jaguar (v) = 0

Speed of Jaguar before it Began to skid =?

Hence, initial speed of jaguar could be obtained using the formula :

v² = u² + 2as

Where

v = final speed of jaguar ; u = initial speed of jaguar(before it Began to skid) ; a = acceleration of jaguar ; s = distance /length of skid marks left by jaguar

0² = u² + (2 × (-8.90) × 290)

0 = u² + (-5,162)

u² = 5162

Take the square root of both sides

u = √5162

u = 71.847 m/s

u = 71.85m/s

Write the equations of motions​
Sav [38]

Answer:

In physics, equations of motion are equations that describe the behavior of a physical system in terms of its motion as a function of time.[1] More specifically, the equations of motion describe the behaviour of a physical system as a set of mathematical functions in terms of dynamic variables. These variables are usually spatial coordinates and time, but may include momentum components. The most general choice are generalized coordinates which can be any convenient variables characteristic of the physical system.[2] The functions are defined in a Euclidean space in classical mechanics, but are replaced by curved spaces in relativity. If the dynamics of a system is known, the equations are the solutions for the differential equations describing the motion of the dynamics.
