Answer:

\mu =0.75

Explanation:

<u>Frictional Force </u>

When the car is moving along the curve, it receives a force that tries to take it from the road. It's called centripetal force and the formula to compute it is:

F_c=m.a_c

The centripetal acceleration a_c is computed as

\displaystyle a_c=\frac{v^2}{r}

Where v is the tangent speed of the car and r is the radius of curvature. Replacing the formula into the first one

F_c=m.\frac{v^2}{r}

For the car to keep on the track, the friction must have the exact same value of the centripetal force and balance the forces. The friction force is computed as

F_r=\mu N

The normal force N is equal to the weight of the car, thus

F_r=\mu .m.g

Equating both forces

\displaystyle \mu .m.g=m.\frac{v^2}{r}

Simplifying

\displaystyle \mu =\frac{v^2}{rg}

Substituting the values

\displaystyle \mu =\frac{19^2}{(49)(9.8)}

\boxed{\mu =0.75}

An what would be needed to change an objects state of motion
VladimirAG [237]

Inertia: tendency of an object to resist changes in its velocity. An object at rest has zero velocity - and (in the absence of an unbalanced force) will remain with a zero velocity. Such an object will not change its state of motion (i.e., velocity) unless acted upon by an unbalanced force.

A satellite in orbit is not truly traveling through a vacuum.It is moving through very, very thin air. Does the resulting airfri
defon

PART A) Yes, the fact that there is a frictional force acting on the satellite generates a loss of energy due to friction. What causes satellite to diminish its orbit during its tour. In fact, many satellites have rectifier systems that allow them to position themselves and remain in their orbit for a long time to avoid being trapped by the Earth's gravity Force and fall into the atmosphere where they would probably be torn apart.

PART B) As a similarity, one could start by mentioning the structure of the two equations are similar and have their own constants who were responsible for supporting them. While the law of gravity speaks of the masses of the bodies the electrostatic law speaks of the charges of the bodies. For both the force is inversely proportional to the square of the distance that separates them.

However, the most notable difference between them is basically their statement. While one of the equations speaks about greavedad the other reflects the electromagnetic phenomena. It should be noted that the force of gravity is much weaker than the electromagnetic force and that the latter has the capacity of attraction and repulsion. While the gravitational force only that of attraction.
