Why do streets and highways have speed limits rather than velocity limits?

Physics

andrew11 [14]3 years ago

They actually DO have velocity limits. There are legal restrictions on both speed and direction.

-- Speeds are limited according to the black numbers on white signs that you see on sign-posts everywhere.

-- Directions are limited by the layout of the pavement and curbs on all the highways, avenues, roads, boulevards and streets, as well as the countless signs that say "One Way", "No Left Turn", "Keep Right", "Keep Left", etc. Violate one of these, and you get nailed as sure as if you had exceeded a posted speed limit.

Q C Many people assume air resistance acting on a moving object will always make the object slow down. It can, however, actually
OLga [1]

$E_i-E_f=-17.94 \times 10^9 \mathrm{~J}-\left(-18.30 \times 10^9 \mathrm{~J}\right)=3.60 \times 10^8 \mathrm{~J}$.

The most effective forces on the object are the backward force of air resistance relatively very small in magnitude, and the force of gravity. Because the spiral path of the satellite is not perpendicular to the gravitational force, one element of the gravitational force pulls forward. at the satellite to do fantastic work & make its speed increase.

<h3>What is called gravitational force?</h3>

Gravity, additionally referred to as gravitation, is a force that exists amongst all material gadgets withinside the universe. For any objects or particles having nonzero mass, the force of gravity tends to draw them in the direction of each other. Gravity operates on objects of all sizes, from subatomic particles to clusters of galaxies.

You push on a cart (18.0kg) at a 30 degree below horizontal angle. The coefficient of kinetic friction between the chair and the
podryga [215]

Given that force is applied at an angle of 30 degree below the horizontal

So let say force applied if F

now its two components are given as

F_x = Fcos30


F_y = Fsin30


Now the normal force on the block is given as

N = Fsin30 + mg

N = 0.5F + (18\times 9.8)

N = 0.5F + 176.4

now the friction force on the cart is given as

F_f = \mu N

F_f = 0.625(0.5F + 176.4)

F_f = 110.25 + 0.3125F

now if cart moves with constant speed then net force on cart must be zero

so now we have

F_f + F_x = 0

Fcos30 - (110.25 + 0.3125F) = 0

0.866F - 0.3125F = 110.25

F = 199.2 N

so the force must be 199.2 N

An object propelled upwards with an acceleration of 2.0 m / s ^ 2 is launched from rest. After 6 seconds the fuel runs out. Dete
dezoksy [38]

Answer:43.34 m

Explanation:

Given

acceleration(a)=2 m/s^2

Initial Velocity(u)=0 m/s

After 6 s fuel runs out

Velocity after 6 s

v=u+at

v=0+2\times 6=12 m/s

After this object will start moving under gravity

height reached in first 6 s

s=ut+\frac{at^2}{2}

s=0+\frac{2\times 6^2}{2}

s=36 m

After fuel run out distance traveled in upward direction is

v^2-u^2=2as_0

here v=0

u=12 m/s

a=9.8 m/s^2

0-12^2=2(-9.8)(s)

s_0=\frac{144}{2\times 9.8}=7.34 m

s+s_0=36+7.34=43.34 m
