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.

Examine the spectra of the four unknown substances shown below. What can you conclude?
oksian1 [2.3K]
Line spectra are obtained when individual elements are heated using a high-voltage electrical discharge. This heating causes excitation of the element and a subsequent emission of distinct lines of colored light are obtained. Each element has its own unique emission line spectrum; therefore, if any of the tested substances were the same, their spectra would match. However, this is not the case so none of the substances are the same.
 hope it helps!

I wish to use a step up transformer to turn an initial RMS AC voltage of 100 V into a final RMS AC voltage of 200 V. What is the
zhuklara [117]

Answer:

1:2

Explanation:

It is given that,

Initial RMS AC voltage is 100 V and final RMS AC voltage is 200 V.

We need to find the ratio of the number of turns in the primary to the secondary  for step up transformer.

For a transformer, \dfrac{V_1}{V_2}=\dfrac{N_1}{N_2}

So,

\dfrac{N_1}{N_2}=\dfrac{100}{200}\\\\\dfrac{N_1}{N_2}=\dfrac{1}{2}

So, the ratio of the number of turns in the primary to the secondary is 1:2.
