The two types of mechanical waves are longitudinal waves, and transversal waves.
Velocity is the displacement of an object over the amount of time. It is not the same as speed. If an object travels 4 miles forward and then 4 miles back all in one hour, its speed is 8 mph. However, displacement is the difference between the final position and the initial position. So in this case, the average velocity would be 0 because its final and initial positions were the same.
Answer:
897
Explanation:
Speed of the car, v = 126 km/h, converting to m/s, we have v = 35 m/s and
Radius of the curve, R = 150 mm = 0.15 m
The centripetal acceleration a(c) is given by the formula = v² / R so that
a(c) = 35² / 0.15
a(c) = 1225 / 0.15
a(c) = 8167 m/s²
The force that causes the acceleration is frictional force = µ m g, where
µ = coefficient of friction
m = the mass of the car and
g = acceleration due to gravity, 9.81
From Newton's law:
µ m g = m a(c) , so that
µ = a(c) / g
µ = 8167 / 9.81
µ = 897
Therefore, the coefficient of static friction must be as big as 897
Oil must be mined from underground.
