A Formula One race car with mass 770.0 kg is speeding through a course in Monaco and enters a circular turn at 235.0 km/h in the

counterclockwise direction about the origin of the circle. At another part of the course, the car enters a second circular turn at 190.0 km/h also in the counterclockwise direction. If the radius of curvature of the first turn is 125.0 m and that of the second is 100.0 m, compare the angular momenta of the race car in each turn taken about the origin of the circular turn. (Compare using the magnitudes of the angular momenta for each turn.)

Answer:

Explanation:

Given

mass of first car $m_1=770 kg$

speed $=235 km/h\approx 65.27 m/s$

radius of first turn=125 m

And Angular momentum is given by =mvr

Angular momentum of first car

$L_1=770\times 65.27\times 125=6282,237.5 N-m/s$

$v_2=190\approx 52.77 m/s$

$r_2=100m$

similarly $L_2=770\times 52.77\times 100=4063290 N-m/s$

$\frac{L_1}{L_2}=\frac{r_1v_1}{r_2v_2}=\frac{125\times 65.27}{100\times 52.77}=1.546$

Thus angular momentum of first car is 1.54 times of second one

Mariana [72]

Answers:

a) $2.82(10)^{21} kg$

b) $1410 J$

c) $36.62 m/s$

Explanation:

<h3>a) Mass of the continent</h3>

Density $\rho$ is defined as a relation between mass $m$ and volume $V$ :

$\rho=\frac{m}{V}$ (1)

Where:

$\rho=2720 kg/m^{3}$ is the average density of the continent

$m$ is the mass of the continent

$V$ is the volume of the continent, which can be estimated is we assume it as a a slab of rock 5300 km on a side and 37 km deep:

$V=(length)(width)(depth)=(5300 km)(5300 km)(37 km)=1,030,330,000 km^{3} \frac{(1000 m)^{3}}{1 km^{3}}=1.03933(10)^{18} m^{3}$

Finding the mass:

$m=\rho V$ (2)

$m=(2720 kg/m^{3})(1.03933(10)^{18} m^{3})$ (3)

$m=2.82(10)^{21} kg$ (4) This is the mass of the continent

<h3>b) Kinetic energy of the continent</h3>

Kinetic energy $K$ is given by the following equation:

$K=\frac{1}{2}mv^{2}$ (5)

Where:

$m=2.82(10)^{21} kg$ is the mass of the continent

$v=4.8 \frac{cm}{year} \frac{1 m}{100 cm} \frac{1 year}{365 days} \frac{1 day}{24 hours} \frac{1 hour}{3600 s}=1(10)^{-9} m/s$ is the velocity of the continent

$K=\frac{1}{2}(2.82(10)^{21} kg)(1(10)^{-9} m/s)^{2}$ (6)

$K=1410 J$ (7) This is the kinetic energy of the continent

<h3>c) Speed of the jogger</h3>

If we have a jogger with mass $m=77 kg$ and the same kinetic energy as that of the continent $1413 J$ , we can find its velocity by isolating $v$ from (5):

$v=\sqrt{\frac{2 K}{m}}$ (6)

$v=\sqrt{\frac{2 (1413 J)}{77 kg}}$

Finally:

$v=36.62 m/s$ This is the speed of the jogger

We use towels to dry our body after taking a shower,why?<br><br>

9966 [12]

Answer:

A wet body has a relatively high concentration of water. When this is transferred to a towel, the large surface area of the towel fabric distributes the water molecules over a much greater surface area, so the relative concentration is lower.

Starting at (0,0) an object travels 36 meters north and then it covers 20 meters east. What is

Svetradugi [14.3K]

Answer:

Explanation:

Using the pythagoras theorem, the displacement is expressed as;

d² = x²+y²

y = 36m (north)

x = 20m east

Substitute;

d² = 36²+20²

d² = 1296+400

d² = 1696

d = √1696

d = 41.18m

For the direction;

theta = tan^-1(y/x)

theta = tan^-1(36/20)

theta = tan^-1(1.8)

theta = 60.95°

Hence the magnitude is 41.18m and the direction is 60.95°
