Answer:

a_x = 0

Explanation:

When projectile is in air then the force on the projectile is only due to its weight

It is vertically downwards

F_g = mg(-\hat j)

so here since we don't have any air drag or friction due to air so there will be no force along its tangent or along x direction

so the acceleration along x direction will be zero

a_x = 0

a_y = - g

Without air resistance, there is no horizontal force on the projectile,
so it has no horizontal acceleration.  The answer is "zero".

A highway curves to the left with radius of curvature of 36 m and is banked at 28 ◦ so that cars can take this curve at higher s
iVinArrow [24]

Answer: 30.34m/s

Explanation:

The sum of forces in the y direction 0 = N cos 28 - μN sin28 - mg

Sum of forces in the x direction

mv²/r = N sin 28 + μN cos 28

mv²/r = N(sin 28 + μcos 28)

Thus,

mv²/r = mg [(sin 28 + μ cos 28)/(cos 28 - μ sin 28)]

v²/r = g [(sin 28 + μ cos 28)/(cos 28 - μ sin 28)]

v²/36 = 9.8 [(0.4695 + 0.87*0.8829) - (0.8829 - 0.87*0.4695)]

v²/36 = 9.8 [(0.4695 + 0.7681) / (0.8829 - 0.4085)]

v²/36 = 9.8 (1.2376/0.4744)

v²/36 = 9.8 * 2.6088

v²/36 = 25.57

v² = 920.52

v = 30.34m/s

What is haudralic pressure​
Neko [114]

Answer:

Hydraulic pressure is the pressure of hydraulic fluid which it exerts in all direction of vessel,hose or anything in which it is supposed to exert the force per unit area. This pressure is responsible to create a flow in a hydraulic system as fluid flows from high pressure to low pressure . Thus energy is transferred in a hydraulic system through a fluid medium.

PEg=mgh For a mass of 60kg and 10m high
Anuta_ua [19.1K]
Assuming that the gravitational field strength is 10 N/kg, the sum would look like this:
PEg=mgh
=60×10×10
=6000J
However, you will need to check that you are not meant to be using 9.8 N/kg as the gravitational field strength.
