The Indianapolis Motor Speedway has four banked curves, each of which forms a quarter of a circle. Suppose a race car speeds alo

ng one of these curves with a constant tangential speed of 75.0 m/s. Neglecting the effects due to the banking of the curve, the centripetal acceleration on the car is 22.0 m/s2. What is the radius of the curve?

Answer:

r =  255.68 m

Explanation:

When a body moves in a circular path, an acceleration, due to constant change in its direction, is developed, known as centripetal acceleration. The centripetal acceleration acts towards the center of the circular path. The formula to calculate the centripetal acceleration is given as follows:

ac = v²/r

where,

ac = centripetal acceleration = 22 m/s²

v = tangential speed = 75 m/s

r = radius of curve = ?

Therefore,

22 m/s² = (75 m/s)²/r

r = (75 m/s)²/(22 m/s²)

<u>r =  255.68 m</u>

If energy is absorbed because chemical reaction is ______.
melomori [17]
<h2>Answer:</h2>

The reaction is <u>D. endothermic</u>.

<h2>Explanation:</h2>

Absorption or need of energy from surroundings is called endothermic process. Heat is the major common form of energy which is absorbed in this process.  In this process, enthaply of reactant is less than the product.

For example, an ice cube placed in the hand for some time starts to melt and it takes energy in the form of heat from the hand. This process always requires energy because of the breaking of existing and formation of new chemical bonds.
