The coefficient of friction is missing and it has a value of μ = 0.4

Answer:

a = 3.924 m/s²

Explanation:

I've attached the kinematic free body diagram.

Taking the sum of all upward and downward forces,

EFy = 0;

N1 + N2 - m_p•g - m_v•g = 0

N1 + N2 = m_p•g + m_v•g

Where;

N1 and N2 are the normal reactions at the wheels

m_p is the mass of the driver

m_v is the mass of the vehicle

g is the acceleration due to gravity.

Plugging in the relevant values in the question,we obtain;

N1 + N2 = (385 + 75) x 9.81

N1 + N2 = 4512.6N - - - (eq1)

Now, taking sum of all horizontal forces;

EFx = (m_p + m_v) x a

So,

μ(N1 + N2) = (mp + mv) x a

Thus,

0.4(N1 + N2) = (385 + 75)a

0.4(N1 + N2) = 460a

N1 + N2 = 1150a

From eq(1),N1 + N2 = 4512.6N

Thus,

1150a = 4512.6N

a = 4512.6/1150

a = 3.924 m/s²

Therefore, the acceleration, a = 3.924 m/s²

When you are on a huge water slide what forces are there? when will you experience a net force?
Pani-rosa [81]
When you are on a huge water slide, the force present as you slide is the gravitational force. It is because the gravity enables you to slide down the water slide. The net force is the overall forces of the object, so as you slide the water slide, you may experience the net force once you slide down with the gravity and water sliding you down.

26. A transformer increases or decreases
uysha [10]

Answer:

Explanation:

Single-phase transformers can operate to either increasing or decreasing the voltage applied to the primary winding. When a transformer is used to “increase” the voltage on the secondary winding with respect to the primary, it is called a Step-up transformer

A 17926-lb truck enters an emergency exit ramp at a speed of 75.6 ft/s. It travels for 6.4 s before its speed is reduced to 30.3
I am Lyosha [343]

Answer:

F_{braking}=337299 pdl

Explanation:

Impulse-Momentum relation:

I=\Delta p\\ F_{total}*t=m(v_{f}-v{o})

F_{total}=-F_{braking}+mgsin{\theta}

We solve the equations in order to find the braking force:

F_{braking}=m(v_{o}-v{f})/t+mgsin{\theta}=17926(75.6-30.3)/6.4+17926*32.17*sin21.4=337299 pdl
