Answer:

C. 98 N

Explanation:

The force needed to get the skier at rest moving must be at least equal to the maximum static frictional force acting on the skier, which is given by

F=\mu W

where

\mu = 0.14 is the coefficient of static friction

W = 700 N is the weight of the skier

Substituting into the equation, we find

F=(0.14)(700 N)=98 N

Answer:

c

Explanation:

μ = f/N where μ is the coefficient of friction; f is the amount of force that resists motion, and N is the normal force. You must solve for f here so 700 N x .14 = 98 N.

A 1100 kg car rounds a curve of radius 68 m banked at an angle of 16 degrees. If the car is traveling at 95 km/h, will a frictio
Mariulka [41]

Answer:

Yes. Towards the center. 8210 N.

Explanation:

Let's first investigate the free-body diagram of the car. The weight of the car has two components: x-direction: towards the center of the curve and y-direction: towards the ground. Note that the ground is not perpendicular to the surface of the Earth is inclined 16 degrees.

In order to find whether the car slides off the road, we should use Newton's Second Law in the direction of x: F = ma.

The net force is equal to F = \frac{mv^2}{R} = \frac{1100\times (26.3)^2}{68} = 1.1\times 10^4~N

Note that 95 km/h is equal to 26.3 m/s.

This is the centripetal force and equal to the x-component of the applied force.

F = mg\sin(16) = 1100(9.8)\sin(16) = 2.97\times10^3

As can be seen from above, the two forces are not equal to each other. This means that a friction force is needed towards the center of the curve.

The amount of the friction force should be 8.21\times 10^3~N

Qualitatively, on a banked curve, a car is thrown off the road if it is moving fast. However, if the road has enough friction, then the car stays on the road and move safely. Since the car intends to slide off the road, then the static friction between the tires and the road must be towards the center in order to keep the car in the road.

What is the SI unit for intensity?
Allisa [31]

Answer:

The SI unit of intensity is the watt per square meter/metre (W/m^2.)

Explanation:

Intensity is equal to the power transferred per unit area. Since power is measured in watts (W) and 1 W = 1 J/s, then intensity can be viewed as how fast energy goes through a certain area.

In physics, intensity is often used when studying light, sound, or other phenomena that involve waves or energy transfer. (With waves, the power value is taken as the average power transfer over the wave's period.)

Answer:

A. U_0 = \dfrac{\epsilon_0 A V^2}{2d}

B. U_1 = \dfrac{\epsilon_0 A V^2}{6d}

C. U_2 = \dfrac{K\epsilon_0 A V^2}{2d}

Explanation:

The capacitance of a capacitor is its ability to store charges. For parallel-plate capacitors, this ability depends the material between the plates, the common plate area and the plate separation. The relationship is

C=\dfrac{\epsilon A}{d}

C is the capacitance, A is the common plate area, d is the plate separation and \epsilon is the permittivity of the material between the plates.

For air or free space, \epsilon is \epsilon_0 called the permittivity of free space. In general, \epsilon=\epsilon_r \epsilon_0 where \epsilon_r is the relative permittivity or dielectric constant of the material between the plates. It is a factor that determines the strength of the material compared to air. In fact, for air or vacuum, \epsilon_r=1.

The energy stored in a capacitor is the average of the product of its charge and voltage.

U = \dfrac{QV}{2}

Its charge, Q, is related to its capacitance by Q=CV (this is the electrical definition of capacitance, a ratio of the charge to its voltage; the previous formula is the geometric definition). Substituting this in the formula for U,

U = \dfrac{CV^2}{2}

A. Substituting for C in U,

U_0 = \dfrac{\epsilon_0 A V^2}{2d}

B. When the distance is 3d,

U_1 = \dfrac{\epsilon_0 A V^2}{2\times3d}

U_1 = \dfrac{\epsilon_0 A V^2}{6d}

C. When the distance is restored but with a dielectric material of dielectric constant, K, inserted, we have

U_2 = \dfrac{K\epsilon_0 A V^2}{2d}
