Base your answer to the question on the information below.A go-cart travels around a flat, horizontal, circular track with a rad

ius of 25 meters. The mass of the go-cart with the rider is 200. kilograms. The magnitude of the maximum centripetal force exerted by the track on the go-cart is 1200. newtons.Which change would increase the maximum speed at which the go-cart could travel without sliding off this track?

Explanation:

It is given that,

Radius of the circular track, r = 25 m

Mass of the go cart with the rider, m = 200 kg

The magnitude of the maximum centripetal force exerted by the track on the go-cart is 1200 N.

The centripetal force exerted by the track o the go cart is given by :

F=\dfrac{mv^2}{r}

v is the maximum speed at which the go-cart could travel without sliding off this track.

v=\sqrt{\dfrac{Fr}{m}}

The maximum speed is directly proportional to the force and radius of track. On increasing force and radius and decreasing the mass would increase maximum speed. It is given by :

v=\sqrt{\dfrac{1200\times 25}{200}}

v = 12.24 m/s

Hence, this is the required solution.

DIA [1.3K]

Given that,

Mass of trackler, m₁ = 100 kg

Speed of trackler, u₁ = 2.6 m/s

Mass of halfback, m₂ = 92 kg

Speed of halfback, u₂ = -5 m/s (direction is opposite)

To find,

Mutual speed immediately after the collision.

Solution,

The momentum of the system remains conserved in this case. Let v is the mutual speed after the collision. Using conservation of momentum as :

m_1u_1+m_2u_2=(m_1+m_2)V\\\\V=\dfrac{m_1u_1+m_2u_2}{(m_1+m_2)}\\\\V=\dfrac{100\times 2.6+92\times (-5)}{(100+92)}\\\\V=-1.04\ m/s

So, the mutual speed immediately after the collision is 1.04 m/s but in opposite direction.

A projectile is launched diagonally into the air and has a hang time of 24.5 seconds. Approximately how much time is required fo
Rasek [7]

Answer:

t=12.25\ seconds

Explanation:

<u>Diagonal Launch </u>

It's referred to as a situation where an object is thrown in free air forming an angle with the horizontal. The object then describes a known path called a parabola, where there are x and y components of the speed, displacement, and acceleration.

The object will eventually reach its maximum height (apex) and then it will return to the height from which it was launched. The equation for the height at any time t is

x=v_ocos\theta t

\displaystyle y=y_o+v_osin\theta \ t-\frac{gt^2}{2}

Where vo is the magnitude of the initial velocity, \theta is the angle, t is the time and g is the acceleration of gravity

The maximum height the object can reach can be computed as

\displaystyle t=\frac{v_osin\theta}{g}

There are two times where the value of y is y_o when t=0 (at launching time) and when it goes back to the same level. We need to find that time t by making y=y_o

\displaystyle y_o=y_o+v_osin\theta\ t-\frac{gt^2}{2}

Removing y_o and dividing by t (t different of zero)

\displaystyle 0=v_osin\theta-\frac{gt}{2}

Then we find the total flight as

\displaystyle t=\frac{2v_osin\theta}{g}

We can easily note the total time (hang time) is twice the maximum (apex) time, so the required time is

\boxed{t=24.5/2=12.25\ seconds}
