Answer:

The velocity of the camera is 33.11 m/s.

Explanation:

Given that,

Speed = 10.8 m/s

Altitude = 50 m

Suppose determine the velocity of the camera just before it hits the ground?

We need to calculate the velocity of the camera

Using equation of motion

v^2=u^2+2gs

Where, v = final velocity of camera

u = initial speed of camera

s = distance

Put the value into the formula

v^2=(-10.8)^2+2\times(-9.8)\times(-50)

v=\sqrt{1096.64}

v=33.11\ m/s

The direction will be downward so it is the negative velocity.

Hence, The velocity of the camera is 33.11 m/s.

A new roller coaster contains a loop-the-loop in which the car and rider are completely upside down. If the radius of the loop i
levacccp [35]

Answer:

The minimum speed must the car must be 13.13 m/s.

Explanation:

The radius of the loop is 17.6 m. We need to find the minimum speed must the car traverse the loop so that the rider does not fall out while upside down at the top.

We know that, mg be the weight of car and rider, which is equal to the centripetal force.

mg = \dfrac{mv^2}{r}\\v = \sqrt{rg}\\v = \sqrt{17.6\times 9.8}\\v = 13.13\ m/s\\

So, the minimum speed must the car must be 13.13 m/s.

Raindrops hitting the side windows of a car in motion often leave diagonal streaks even if there is no wind. Why? Is the explana
labwork [276]

Answer:

because of the raindrop velocity relative of the car has a vertical and horizontal component  

Explanation:

  1. The car moves in a <em>horizontal direction </em>relative to the ground. The raindrops fall in the <em>vertical direction</em> relative to the ground.
  2. Their velocity relative to the moving car has  both vertical and horizontal components and this is the reason for the diagonal streaks on the side window.
  3. The diagonal streaks on the windshield  arise from a different reason.
  4. The drops  are pushed  off to  one side  of the  windshield  because  of air resistance.

A car rounds a curve. The radius of curvature of the road is R, the banking angle with respect to the horizontal is θ and the co
exis [7]

Answer:

v = √[gR (sin θ - μcos θ)]

Explanation:

The free body diagram for the car is presented in the attached image to this answer.

The forces acting on the car include the weight of the car, the normal reaction of the plane on the car, the frictional force on the car and the net force on the car which is the centripetal force on the car keeping it in circular motion without slipping.

Resolving the weight into the axis parallel and perpendicular to the inclined plane,

N = mg cos θ

And the component parallel to the inclined plane that slides the body down the plane at rest = mg sin θ

Frictional force = Fr = μN = μmg cos θ

Centripetal force responsible for keeping the car in circular motion = (mv²/R)

So, a force balance in the plane parallel to the inclined plane shows that

Centripetal force = (mg sin θ - Fr) (since the car slides down the plane at rest, (mg sin θ) is greater than the frictional force)

(mv²/R) = (mg sin θ - μmg cos θ)

v² = R(g sin θ - μg cos θ)

v² = gR (sin θ - μcos θ)

v = √[gR (sin θ - μcos θ)]

Hope this Helps!!!
