Answer:

5 N right

Explanation:

Fx = 9N-4N

Fx = 5N

Since we can define the x and y axis. We have x to the right as positive.

How does kinetic energy affect the stopping distance of a vehicle traveling at 30 mph compared to the same vehicle traveling at

amid [387]

Kinetic energy increases with the square of the velocity (KE=1/2*m*v^2). If the velocity is doubled, the KE quadruples. Therefore, the stopping distance should increase by a factor of four, assuming that the driver is can apply the brakes with sufficient precision to almost lock the brakes.

49. \ A rectangular plate is rotating with a constant angular speed about an axis that passes perpendicularly through one corner

faust18 [17]

Answer:

$\frac{L_1}{L_2} = \sqrt{(n^2 - 1)}$

Explanation:

For this interesting problem, we use the definition of centripetal acceleration

a = v² / r

angular and linear velocity are related

v = w r

we substitute

a = w² r

the rectangular body rotates at an angular velocity w

We locate the points, unfortunately the diagram is not shown. In this case we have the axis of rotation in a corner, called O, in one of the adjacent corners we call it A and the opposite corner A

the distance OB = L₂

the distance AB = L₁

the sides of the rectangle

It is indicated that the acceleration in in A and B are related

$a_A = n \ a_B$

we substitute the value of the acceleration

w² r_A = n r_B

the distance from the each corner is

r_B = L₂

r_A = $\sqrt{L_1^2 + L_2^2}$

we substitute

\sqrt{L_1^2 + L_2^2} = n L₂

L₁² + L₂² = n² L₂²

L₁² = (n²-1) L₂²
