An 805-kg race car can drive around an unbanked turn at a maximum speed of 54 m/s without slipping. the turn has a radius of cur

vature of 155 m. air flowing over the car's wing exerts a downward-pointing force (called the downforce) of 10600 n on the car. (a) what is the coefficient of static friction between the track and the car's tires? (b) what would be the maximum speed if no downforce acted on the car?

(a) Equating centripetal force to friction force, one finds the relation
  v² = kar
for car speed v, coefficient of friction k, radius of curvature r, and downward acceleration a.

There is already downward acceleration due to gravity. The additional accceleration due to the wing is
  a = F/m = 10600 N/(805 kg) ≈ 13.1677 m/s²
We presume this is added to the 9.80 m/s² gravity provides, so the coefficient of friction is
  k = v²/(ar) = (54 m/s)²/((13.1677 m/s² +9.80 m/s²)·(155 m))
  k ≈ 0.8191

(b) The maximum speed is proportional to the square root of the downward acceleration. Changing that by a factor of 9.80/(9.80+13.17) changes the maximum speed by the square root of this factor.
  max speed with no wing effect = (54 m/s)√(9.8/22.97) ≈ 35.27 m/s

QUESTION 3 ( MARKS]

Answer:

392 N

Explanation:

Draw a free body diagram of the rod.  There are four forces acting on the rod:

At the wall, you have horizontal and vertical reaction forces, Rx and Ry.

At the other end of the rod (point X), you have the weight of the sign pointing down, mg.

Also at point X, you have the tension in the wire, T, pulling at an angle θ from the -x axis.

Sum of the moments at the wall:

∑τ = Iα

(T sin θ) L − (mg) L = 0

T sin θ − mg = 0

T = mg / sin θ

Given m = 20 kg and θ = 30.0°:

T = (20 kg) (9.8 m/s²) / (sin 30.0°)

T = 392 N

Ifferences in elevation are best shown using a _____.
PolarNik [594]
Differences in elevation are best shown using a topographic map. This is because it uses a large-scale detail representation of the the Earth's relief, mostly by using contour lines. Some traditional definitions show both natural and manmade features, which make it the best map to use when dealing with elevations.

A truck has a mass of 2,000 kg. The driving force created by the engine is 3,000 Newtons. Calculate the acceleration caused by t
Brrunno [24]

Answer:

1.5 m/s^2

Explanation:

Force = 3000 Newtons

Mass = 2000 kilograms

Force = Mass x Acceleration

This rearranged to:

Acceleration = Force / Mass

Acceleration = 3000 / 2000 = 1.5 m/s^2
