Answer:Explained Below

Explanation:

Tycho Brahe saw a super nova which inspired him to study astronomy.His observations are 5 times more accurate than other astronomers of his time and thus he was given a private island to study about astronomy .He made most accurate naked eye measurements ever.

So he can be said to be the "greatest naked eye astronomer of all time"

A car travels around a level, circular track that is 750m across. What coefficient of friction is required to ensure the car can

Crank

The coefficient of friction must be 0.196

Explanation:

For a car moving on a circular track, the frictional force provides the centripetal force needed to keep the car in circular motion. Therefore, we can write:

$\mu mg = m\frac{v^2}{r}$

where the term on the left is the frictional force acting between the tires of the car and the road, while the term on the right is the centripetal force. The various terms are:

$\mu$ is the coefficient of friction between the tires and the road

m is the mass of the car

$g=9.8 m/s^2$ is the acceleration of gravity

v is the speed of the car

r is the radius of the curve

In this problem,

r = 750 m is the radius

$v=85 mph \cdot \frac{1609}{3600}=38.0 m/s$ is the speed

And solving for $\mu$ , we find the coefficient of friction required to keep the car in circular motion:

$\mu = \frac{v^2}{rg}=\frac{38.0^2}{(750)(9.8)}=0.196$

After driving a portion of the route, the taptap is fully loaded with a total of 27 people including the driver, with an average

belka [17]

We will define the Total mass to calculate the force, so our values are: $M_p = 69*27=1823Kg\\M_g=15*3=45Kg\\M_c=3*5=15Kg\\M_B=25Kg$

Total Mass $= 1863+45+15+25=1948Kg$

The Weight is,

$F=mg=1948*98=19090.4N$

Through the hook's Law we calculate X.

$F_s=Kx$ , where x is the lenght of compression and K the Spring constant.

We don't have a K-Spring, but we can assume a random value (or simply let the equation in function of K)

$X = \frac{F_s}{x} \\X = \frac{1909.4}{k}$

I assume a value of $K=4*10^4N/m$

$X= \frac{1909.4}{4*10^4} = 0.48m$
