Answer: Ok, first, if the mass of the carr is M, and the angle of the hill is a (counting counterclockwise from the ground), the equations for the forces are:

Gravity force Fg = - Mg*sin(a)

Knowing that the normal force that the ground is doing in the car is N = Mg*cos(a)

then the Friction force is: Ff  = 0.9*Mg*cos(a)

if the car is parked, then the sum of the forces must be equal to zero, this is

0.9*Mg*cos(a) - Mg*sin(a) = 0

Mg( 0.9*cos(a) - sin(a)) = 0

so

0.9*cos(a) = sin(a)

0.9 = sin(a)/cos(a) = Tg(a)

a = aTg(0.9) = 41.9°

so the maximum angle is 41.9°, if is smaller or equal, then your car will be fine.

Which of the following objects has the greatest kinetic energy?
Verizon [17]

Answer:

a baseball flying through the air at 90 miles per hour

Explanation:

For the question, Therefore, the kinetic energy of an object is proportional to the square of its velocity (speed). In other words, If the velocity is doubled the kinetic energy will increase by a factor of four.

A solid, uniform sphere with a mass of 2.5 kg rolls without slipping down an incline plane starting from rest at a vertical heig
kolezko [41]

Answer:

1/2 m v^2 + 1/2 I ω^2 = m g h       conservation of energy

I = 2/5 m R^2     inertia of solid sphere

1/2 m v^2 + 1/5 m ω^2 R^2 = m g h

1/2 v^2 + 1/5 v^2 = g h

v^2 = 10 g h / 7 = 1.43 * 9.80 * 19 m^2/s^2 = 266 m^2/s^2

v = 16.3 m/s

v = R ω

ω = 16.3 / .6 = 27.2 / sec

The root-mean-square speed (thermal speed) of the molecules of a gas is 200m/s at 23.0°C. At 227°C the root-mean-square speed (t
777dan777 [17]

Answer:

330 m/s  approx

Explanation:

The RMS speed of a gas is proportional to square root of its absolute temperature is

V ( RMS ) ∝ √T

\frac{V_1}{V_2} =\sqrt{\frac{T_1}{T_2} }

Here V₁ = 200 , T₁ = 23 +273 = 300K , T₂ = 227 +273 = 500 K

Putting the values

200 / V₂ = \sqrt{\frac{300}{500} }

V₂ = 330 m/s  approx
