If a car takes a banked curve at less than a given speed, friction is needed to keep it from sliding toward the inside of the cu

rve (a real problem on icy mountain roads). (a) Calculate the minimum speed, in meters per second, required to take a 84 m radius curve banked at 16° so that you don't slide inwards, assuming there is no friction. (b) What is the minimum coefficient of friction needed for a frightened driver to take the same curve at 16 km/h?

Answer:

minimum speed is 15.35 m/s

frictional coefficient is 0.26

Explanation:

given data

radius = 84 m

angle = 16°

speed = 16 km/h = 4.43 m/s

to find out

minimum speed and minimum coefficient

solution

we will apply here formula for velocity that is

velocity² = radius × g × tanθ

v² = 84 × 9.8 × tan16

v² = 236.04

v = 15.35 m/s

and

we find first friction force here

friction force 1 = m v² /r

friction force 1 = m (15.35)² / 84 = 2.80 m

and

friction force 2 = m v² /r

friction force 2 = m (4.43)² / 84 = 0.245 m

so total friction force = f1 - f2

total friction force = 2.80 - 0.245 = 2.55 m

so frictional coefficient = friction force /g

frictional coefficient = 2.55 / 9.8

so frictional coefficient is 0.26

The current estimate for the age of earth of 4.57 ga comes from _____.

Whitepunk [10]

The estimation of the age of the Earth comes from scientists who studied the rock formation under the Earth's crust. They believe that during the Big Bang, the Earth, together with the other celestial bodies in the universe, were formed. Under the Earth's soil contain radioactive materials that have known decay rates. Using these rate, they undergo tests like rock dating to find the time of its existence.

An object has a starting velocity of 20 m/s. If it accelerates at a rate of 2 m/s' for 3 seconds,

Ghella [55]

Answer:

26 m/s

69 m

Explanation:

Given:

v₀ = 20 m/s

a = 2 m/s²

t = 3 s

Find: v and Δx

v = at + v₀

v = (2 m/s²) (3 s) + 20 m/s

v = 26 m/s

Δx = v₀ t + ½ at²

Δx = (20 m/s) (3 s) + ½ (2 m/s²) (3 s)²

Δx = 69 m

Suppose a car travels 108 km at a speed of 30.0 m/s, and uses 1.90 gallons of gasoline. Only 30% of the gasoline goes into usefu

Aleksandr [31]

Answer:

686.11 N

1.7733 gallons

Explanation:

$\eta$ = Efficiency = 30%

V = Volume of gasoline

E = Energy content of gasoline = $1.3\times 10^8\ J/gal$

F = Force

s = Displacement = 108000 m

v = Velocity

Work done is given by

$W=F\times s\\\Rightarrow F=\frac{W}{s}\\\Rightarrow F=\frac{VE\eta}{s}\\\Rightarrow F=\frac{1.9\times 0.3\times 1.3\times 10^8}{108000}\\\Rightarrow F=686.11\ N$

The force required to keep the car moving at a constant speed is 686.11 N

Here the force is directly proportional to speed

$\\\Rightarrow F=v$

$\\\Rightarrow \frac{F_1}{v_1}=\frac{F_2}{v_2}\\\Rightarrow F_2=\frac{F_1\times v_2}{v_1}\\\Rightarrow F_2=\frac{686.11\times 28}{30}\\\Rightarrow F_2=640.36\ N$

$W=F\times s\\\Rightarrow 0.3\times 1.3\times 10^8\times V=640.36\times 108000\\\Rightarrow V=\frac{640.36\times 108000}{0.3\times 1.3\times 10^8}\\\Rightarrow V=1.7733\ gal$

The gallons that will be used is 1.7733 gallons
