A car is traveling in uniform circular motion on a section of flat roadway whose radius is . The road is slippery, and the car i

s just on the verge of sliding off the roadway. If the car’s speed were now doubled, what would be the smallest radius of the curve it could drive on without slipping?

Answer:

The smallest radius will be four (4) times the initial radius

Explanation:

The car maintains a constant angular speed. According to Newton's Second Law F = m a

1. F_{r}=m*A_{n}

2. A_{n}=\frac{v^2}{R_{p}}

Replacing 2 in 1

3. F_{r}=m*\frac{v^2}{R_{p}}

Where:

Fr= Frictional force

Rp= Initial Radius

An= Centripetal Acceleration

M= Mass

V= Velocity

Also we have that:

4. F_{r}=\mu *W=\mu*m*g

μ= Coefficient of friction between the car and the surface

M= Mass

W= Weight

G= Gravity

r is cleared from equation 3

5. R_{p}=m*\frac{v^2}{F_{r}}

Replacing 4 in 5

6. R_{p}=m*\frac{v^2}{\mu*m*g}

Simplifying

7. R_{p}=\frac{v^2}{\mu*g}

Now we have a new velocity equal to twice the initial velocity, We replace it by 2v in equation 7

8. R_{n}=\frac{(2v)^2}{\mu*g}

Computing

9. R_{n}=\frac{4v^2}{\mu*g}

Replacing 5 in 9

R_{n}=4*R_{p}

A uniform cubical crate is 0.740 m on each side and weighs 600 N. It rests on the floor with one edge against a very small, fixe
Sindrei [870]

Answer:

H = 0.673

Explanation:

given,

side of cubical crate = 0.74

weight of the crate = 600 N

magnitude of force = 330 N

the Horizontal distance of its Center of mass

= 0.74/2

= 0.37

Let the required Height be H

By Balancing the Torques, we get

H x 330 N = 0.37 x 600

330 H = 222

H = 0.673

hence, the height above the floor where force is acting is equal to 0.673 m

How does solubility change with temperature changes?
matrenka [14]

Answer:

Solubility increases with temperature.

Explanation:

-Increasing temperatures, increases the kinetic energy that allows solvent molecules to more effectively break apart the solute molecules.

-This solute molecules are held together by intermolecular attractions which weakens in higher temperatures.

-Solubility therefore increases with increasing temperatures.
