An automobile with a tangential speed of 54.1 km/h follows a circular road that has a radius of 41.6 m. The automobile has a mas

s of 1260 kg. The pavement is wet and oily, so the coefficient of kinetic friction between the car's tires and the pavement is only 0.500.

1) Available force of friction: 6174 N

2) No

Explanation:

1)

The magnitude of the frictional force between the car's tires and the pavement of the road is given by

F_f=\mu mg

where

\mu is the coefficient of friction

m is the mass of the car

g is the acceleration of gravity

For the car in this problem, we have:

\mu=0.500 (coefficient of friction)

m = 1260 kg (mass of the car)

g=9.8 m/s^2

Therefore, the force of friction is

F_f=(0.500)(1260)(9.8)=6174 N

2)

In order to mantain the car in circular motion, the force of friction must be at least equal to the centripetal force.

The centripetal force is given by

F=m\frac{v^2}{r}

where

m is the mass of the car

v is the tangential speed

r is the radius of the curve

In this problem, we have

m = 1260 kg

v=54.1 km/h =15.0 m/s is the tangential speed

r = 41.6 m is the radius of the curve

Therefore, the centripetal force is

F=(1260)\frac{15.0^2}{41.6}=6814 N

Therefore, the force of friction is not enough to keep the car in the curve, since F_f

A proton is accelerated from rest through a potential difference V0 and gains a speed v0. If it were accelerated instead through
Neporo4naja [7]

Answer:

Explanation:

Let the charge on proton be q .

energy gain by proton in a field having potential difference of V₀

= V₀ q

Due to gain of energy , its kinetic energy becomes 1/2 m v₀²

where m is mass and v₀ is velocity of proton

V₀ q = 1/2 m v₀²

In the second case , gain of energy in electrical field

= 2 V₀q , if v be the velocity gained in the second case

2 V₀q = 1/2 m v²

1/2 m v² = 2 V₀q = 2 x 1/2 m v₀²

mv² = 2  m v₀²

v = √2 v₀

What is the acceleration of a body moving with uniform velocity?
AfilCa [17]

Acceleration is the rate of change of velocity, a body moving with uniform velocity does not possess acceleration at all i.e. acceleration is zero

"Which of the following is true about the atom shown? Choose all that apply.
aalyn [17]
Option B & Option D is your correct answers.

'cause here, atom has eight electrons in it's valence shell, so it means it has stable structure which falls in group 18

Hope this helps!
