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}

If a 3.5 gram ping pong ball were traveling to the right horizontally at 12 m/s, and a larger 12 g super ball were thrown direct
algol [13]

Answer:

v = 14.32 m/s

Explanation:

According to the principle of conservation of linear momentum, both the momentum and kinetic energy of the system are conserved. Since the two balls are in the same direction of motion before collision, then;

m_{1} u_{1} + m_{2} u_{2} = (m_{1} + m_{2}) v

0.035 × 12 + 0.120 × 15 = (0.035 + 0.120) v

0.420 + 1.800 = (0.155) v

2.22 = 0.155 v

⇒ v = \frac{2.22}{0.155}

      = 14.323

The velocity of the balls after collision is 14.32 m/s.

Two train tracks run parallel to each other, except for a short distance where they meet and become one track over a narrow brid
Darya [45]

Answer:

This situation is possible.

Explanation:

It is said in the problem that one morning two trains are speeding up from opposite directions onto the bridge. It may seem from this statement that the trains are arriving at the same time. But this should be a wrong assumption.

Because it is only said in the problem that the trains are passing the bridge on same morning. No explicit timing is given.

So it may so happen that both the trains pass the narrow bridge on the same morning but at two difeerent times, making no collision with each other.

What happens in a convection current?
V125BC [204]

Answer:

Convection currents are the result of differential heating. Lighter (less dense), warm material rises while heavier (more dense) cool material sinks. It is this movement that creates circulation patterns known as convection currents in the atmosphere, in water, and in the mantle of Earth.
