car traveling on a flat (unbanked), circular track accelerates uniformly from rest with a tangential acceleration of a. The car

makes it one-quarter of the way around the circle before it skids off the track.From these data, determine the coefficient of static friction between the car and the track

Answer:

0.572

Explanation:

First examine the force of friction at the slipping point where Ff = µsFN = µsmg.

the mass of the car is unknown,

The only force on the car that is not completely in the vertical direction is friction, so let us consider the sums of forces in the tangential and centerward directions.

First the tangential direction

∑Ft =Fft =mat

And then in the centerward direction ∑Fc =Ffc =mac =mv²t/r

Going back to our constant acceleration equations we see that v²t = v²ti +2at∆x = 2at πr/2

So going backwards and plugging in Ffc =m2atπr/ 2r =πmat

Ff = √(F2ft +F2fc)= matp √(1+π²)

µs = Ff /mg = at /g √(1+π²)=

1.70m/s/2 9.80 m/s² x√(1+π²)= 0.572

A particle with charge 6 mC moving in a region where only electric forces act on it has a kinetic energy of 1.9000000000000001 J
Vesna [10]

Answer:

16.9000000000000001 J

Explanation:

From the given information:

Let the initial kinetic energy from point A be K_A = 1.9000000000000001 J

and the final kinetic energy from point B be K_B = ???

The charge particle Q = 6 mC = 6 × 10⁻³ C

The change in the electric potential from point B to A;

i.e. V_B - V_A = -2.5 × 10³ V

According to the work-energy theorem:

-Q × ΔV = ΔK

-Q \times ( V_B - V_A) = (K_B - K_A)

-(6\times 10^{-3}\ C) \times ( -2.5 \times 10^3) = (K_B - 1.9000000000000001 \ J)

15 = (K_B - 1.9000000000000001 \ J)

K_B = 15+ 1.9000000000000001 \ J

\mathbf{K_B =1 6.9000000000000001 \ J}

What is the equation for determining the value of a specific gas constant using the universal gas constants
maria [59]

Answer:

Physically, the gas constant is the constant of proportionality that relates the energy scale in physics to the temperature scale, when a mole of particles at the stated temperature is being considered. Thus, the value of the gas constant ultimately derives from historical decisions and accidents in the setting of the energy and temperature scales, plus similar historical setting of the value of the molar scale used for the counting of particles.

In February 1955, a paratrooper fell 365 m from an airplane without being able to open his chute but happened to land in snow, s
DaniilM [7]

Answer:

a. i=4760 kg*m/s

b. D_U= 1.11 m

Explanation:

a)

F= 120,000N

Kinetic energy @ impact = 120,000*depth

K_E= (1/2)*85kg*(56m/s)^2

K_E=133280 J

D_U= \frac{133280J}{120000N} = 1.11 m

b)

The momentum is equal to the impulse on him from the snow so:

p=m*v

p=85kg*56m/s

i=4760 kg*m/s
