Answer:

v_f = 0.87 m/s

Explanation:

We are given;

F_avg = -17700 N (negative because it's backward)

m = 117 kg

Δt = 5.50 × 10^(−2) s

v_i = 7.45 m/s

Now, formula for impulse is given by;

I = F•Δt = - 17700 x 5.50 × 10^(−2) = - 973.5 kg.m/s

From impulse momentum theory, we know that;

Change in momentum of particle is equal to impulse.

Thus,

Δp = I = m•v_f - m•v_i

Thus,

-973.5= 117(v_f - 7.45)

Thus,

-973.5/117 = (v_f - 7.45)

-8.3205 + 7.45 = v_f

v_f = - 0.87 m/s

We'll take absolute value as;

v_f = 0.87 m/s

You are driving your motorcycle in a circle of radius 75 m on wet pavement. what is the fastest you can go before you lose tract
stira [4]

On driving your motorcycle in a circle of radius 75 m on wet pavement, the fastest you can go before you lose traction, assuming the coefficient of static friction is 0.20 is 147m/s

Friction helps to maintain the slipping of the vehicle on the road hence lays a very important role.

Maximum velocity of a road with friction is given by the formula,

v = μRg

where, v is the maximum velocity

μ is the coefficient of static friction

R is the radius of the circle road

g is the acceleration due to gravity

Given,

μ = 0.20

R = 75m

g = 9.8m/s²

On substituting the given values in the above formula,

v = 0.20× 75 ×9.8

v = 147m/s

So, the Maximum velocity of the wet road is 147m/s.

A solution is oversaturated with solute. which could be done to decrease the oversaturation?
Grace [21]
<span>A solution is oversaturated with solute. The thing that could be done to decrease the oversaturation is to add more solvent in order to decrease the concentration of the solute. You can also increase the temperature to increase solubility of the solute. Hope this answers the question.</span>
