Explanation:

Newton's first law of motion says that an object will be at rest or it will be in motion until an unbalanced force acts on it.
In this case, a car traveling at a constant velocity of 55 mph to the west in the absence of an unbalanced force.

It would mean that the car will continue to move with a constant velocity of 55 mph to the west due to Newton's first law of motion.

Maurinko [17]

Answer:

Since the momentum of the body remains constant ( conserved) the trolley slows down (its velocity reduces) since its mass increases.

The formula v = √2.5r models the maximum safe speed, v, in miles per hour, at which a car can travel on a curved road with radiu

mel-nik [20]

Answer:

The maximum safe speed of the car is 30.82 m/s.

Explanation:

It is given that,

The formula that models the maximum safe speed, v, in miles per hour, at which a car can travel on a curved road with radius of curvature r r, is in feet is given by :

$v=\sqrt{2.5\ r}$ .........(1)

A highway crew measures the radius of curvature at an exit ramp on a highway as 380 feet, r = 380 feet

Put the value of r in equation (1) as :

$v=\sqrt{2.5\ \times 380}$

v = 30.82 m/s

So, the maximum safe speed of the car is 30.82 m/s. Hence, this is the required solution.
