7. A toy car of mass 1.2 kg is driving vertical circles inside a hollow cylinder of radius 2.0m. It is moving at a constant spee

d of 6 m/s. a) Calculate the magnitude of the normal force acting on the car when it is on the top of the circle and when it is on the bottom of the circle, respectively. b) What is the minimum speed the car needs to go around the circle without falling off?

Answer:

a)

N_{top}=9.8N\\N_{bottom}=33.4N

b) v_{min}=4.4m/s

Explanation:

The net force on the car must produce the centripetal acceleration necessary to make this circle, which is a_{cp}=\frac{v^2}{R}. At the top of the circle, the normal force and the weight point downwards (like the centripetal force should), while at the bottom the normal force points upwards (like the centripetal force should) and the weight downwards, so we have (taking the upwards direction as positive):

-m\frac{v^2}{R}=-N_{top}-mg\\m\frac{v^2}{R}=N_{bottom}-mg

Which means:

N_{top}=m\frac{v^2}{R}-mg=(1.2kg)\frac{(6m/s)^2}{2m}-(1.2kg)(9.8m/s^2)=9.8N\\N_{bottom}=m\frac{v^2}{R}+mg=(1.2kg)\frac{(6m/s)^2}{2m}+(1.2kg)(9.8m/s^2)=33.4N

The limit for falling off would be N_{top}=0, so the minimum speed would be:

0=m\frac{v_{min}^2}{R}-mg\\v_{min}=\sqrt{Rg}=\sqrt{(2m)(9.8m/s^2)}=4.4m/s

Which factors affect the strength of magnetic field around current carrying wire?
aleksley [76]

Explanation:

The expression for the magnetic field around the current carrying wire is given by :

B=\dfrac{\mu_o I}{2\pi r}

Here,

I is electric current and r is distance from the wire.

The factors affect the strength of magnetic field around current carrying wire are :

  • Electric current
  • Distance from wire

Small birds can migrate over long distances without feeding, storing energy mostly as fat rather than carbohydrate. (Figure 1) F
Katen [24]

Answer: 3.1107grams of fat.

Explanation:The speed to cover 800 km in 20 hours will be 40km/hr, Because

Speed =Distance/Time.

This is equal to 72,000 seconds. At a power consumption of 1.7 W, the bird will consume (1.7 X 72,000) =122,400 J of energy.

A gram of fat contains about (9.4 Calories X 4186 J/Calorie) ,=39348 joules of energy, the bird will need (122,400 / 39,348) = 3.1107 grams of fat.

A 16 g piece of Styrofoam carries a net charge of -8.6 µC and floats above the center of a large horizontal sheet of plastic tha
PilotLPTM [1.2K]

Answer:

the charge per unit area on the plastic sheet is - 3.23 x 10⁻⁷ C/m²

Explanation:

given information:

styrofoam mass, m = 16 g = 0.016 kg

net charge, q = - 8.6 μC

to calculate the charge per unit area on the plastic sheet, we can use the following equation:

F_{e} = mg

where

F_{e} = the force between the electric field

m = mass

g = gravitational force

F_{e} =qE

where

q = charge

E = electric field

and

E = σ/2ε₀

where

ε₀ = permitivity

thus

F_{e} =qE

mg = qσ/2ε₀

σ = (2mg ε₀)/q

  = 2 (0.016) (9.8)  (8.85 x 10⁻¹²)/( - 8.6 x 10⁻⁶)

  = - 3.23 x 10⁻⁷ C/m²

A 7 kg ball of clay traveling at 12 m/s collides with a 25 kg ball of clay traveling in the
ANEK [815]

Answer:

<em><u>Given: </u></em>

m1 = 7 kg

V1 = 12 m/s

m2 = 25 kg

V2 = 6 m/s

<em><u>To find:</u></em>

Combined speed of two balls stick together after collision V = ?

<em><u>Solution:</u></em>

<em>According to law of conservation of momentum,</em>

m1V1 + m2V2 = (m1+m2)V

7×12 + 25×6 = (7+25)V

84 + 150 = 32V

V = 234/32

V = 7.31 m/s

Combined speed of two ball is 7.31 m/s
