What is the smallest radius of an unbanked (flat) track around which a bicyclist can travel if her speed is 29.0 km/h and the co

efficient of static friction between tires and track is 0.320? The bicyclist, bicycle and tires are all to the right of the center of the track. Treat the bicyclist, bicycle and tires as one object.

Answer:

Explanation:

Let the radius of track required be r.

Centripetal force will be provided by frictional force which will be equal to

m v²/ r

Frictional force = mg x μ

So

m v² /r = mg μ

r = v² / μ g =

  v = 29 km /h = 8.05 m /s

r =( 8.05 x 8.05 ) /( .32 x 9.8 ) = 20.66 m

Juan amd kym have four samples of matter. They are observing and describing the properties of these samples. Which property will
TiliK225 [7]

Answer: The property that will best provide evidence that the samples are solid includes:

--> if the substance has a definite shape,

-->if the substance has a definite volume

--> if it's tightly packed.

Explanation:

According to the kinetic theory of matter, every substance consist of very large number of very small particles called molecules. These molecules, which are made up of atoms that are the smallest particles of a substance that can exist in a free state.

Matter can exist in the following states:

--> Solid state

--> liquid state or

--> Gaseous state.

The general property of a substance that is in gaseous state includes:

--> Definite shape: A substance can be grouped as a solid if it's shape is fixed that is, it doesn't depend on the shape of other materials.

--> Definite volume: A substance can be grouped as a solid if it occupies its own shape. This is due to the force of cohesion among its molecules.

--> Tightly packed: A substance can be grouped as solid if the molecular movements of the particles are negligible.

From the samples under observation by Juan and kym, if the sample that possesses the above described qualities, it is a solid rather than liquid or gas.

Using complete sentences and your own words describe some of the ways humans use water.
Lera25 [3.4K]

Answer:

Humans use water for many different things. We use water to stay hydrated. Our bodies need water to live. Back in the day people used water for transportation and trading. This was a way to become wealthy and exchange goods and ideas from one place to another. We also use water to clean ourselves off. If we don't we can become sick with illnesses that can harm our bodies.

A student, who weighs 720N, is standing on a bathroom scale and riding an elevator that is moving downwards with a speed that is
jasenka [17]

Answer:

1) The mass of the student is approximately 73.39 kg

2) The net force on the student is approximately 947.523 N

3) The value the scale will read is approximately 96.59 kg

Explanation:

The given parameters are;

The weight of the student = 720 N

The speed at which the elevator is decreasing = 3.1 m/s²

1) The weight of the student = The mass of the student × The acceleration due to gravity

The acceleration due to gravity is a constant = 9.81 m/s²

Substituting the known values gives;

720 N = The mass of the student × 9.81 m/s²

∴ The mass of the student = 720 N/(9.81 m/s²) ≈ 73.39 kg

2) The forces acting on the student are;

i) The force of gravity which is the weight of the student acting downwards

ii) The inertia force of the slowing elevator acting downwards in the same direction as the weight of the student

The net force, F_{net} = The weight of the student + The inertia force of the slowing elevator

∴ The net force, F_{net} = 720 N + 73.39 kg × 3.1 m/s² ≈ 947.523 N

3) The scale will read the mass of the student as follows;

Mass reading of student on the scale = Force on scale/9.81

∴ Mass reading of student on the scale = 947.523/9.81 ≈ 96.59 kg

The value the scale will read = 96.59 kg.
