A car moving at a steady 10 m/s on a level highway encounters a bump that has a circular cross-section with a radius of 30 m. Th

e car maintains its speed over the bump. What is the normal force exerted by the seat of the car on a 60.0-kg passenger when the car is at the top of the bump?

When you are driving over a circular bump, you can feel your body moving up a small distance in the seat. This make you feel like you weigh less that you really do. This is caused by the fact that net down force on you is equal to the centripetal force. If you go the following website, you will see a problem that is similar to this one. Go the problem called Sample Roller Coaster Problem.

At this website you can see that the normal force exerted by the seat of the car on a 60.0-kg passenger is equal to the difference of the passenger’s weight and the centripetal force.

Weight = 60 * 9.8 = 588 N

Fc = 60 * 10^2/30 = 200 N

Normal force = 388 N

"a horn emits a frequency of 1000 HZ. A 14 m/s wind is blowing toward a listener. What is the frequency of the sound heard by th
Semenov [28]

Answer:

 f_L = 1000 Hz

Explanation:

given,

speed of wind, = 14 m/s

frequency of horn,f_s = 1000 Hz

speed of sound,V = 344 m/s

frequency heard by the listener

using Doppler effect

f_L = \dfrac{v+v_L}{v+v_s}f_s

f_L is the frequency of the sound heard by the listener

f_s is the frequency of sound emitted by the listener

V is the speed of sound

v_L is the speed of listener

v_s is the speed of source

now,

considering the frame of reference in which wind is at rest now, both listener and the source will be moving at 14 m/s

 f_L = \dfrac{v+14}{v+14}\times 1000

now on solving we will get

 f_L = 1000 Hz

hence, the frequency heard by the listener is equal to  1000 Hz

A subtence floats or sinks in onother becauseof its relitivity
Helga [31]
No.  A substance floats or sinks in another substance because of
the densities of both of them.

If the density of the substance is more than the density of the other
one, it will sink.  If less than the density of the other one, it will float.

In a lecture demonstration, a 3.0-m-long vertical string with ten bolts tied to it at equal intervals is dropped from the ceilin
sleet_krkn [62]
<span>First of all, the bolts wont hit the ground at equal time intervals because each bolt is constantly increasing. Therefore, the top will have different velocity with the bottom bolt at all times. this means that the bolts will speed up more as they are higher which will make the interval time shorter. therefore, the time will decrease</span>

If you double the mass but don't change the net force what is the result on the acceleration
vazorg [7]
F is force, m is mass and a<span> is acceleration. The math behind this is quite simple. If you double the force, you double the acceleration, but if you double the mass, you cut the acceleration in half.</span>
