Answer:

Angle, θ = 29.35

Explanation:

It is given that,

Radius of the curve, r = 80 m

Velocity of the car, v = 21 m/s

The highway curve is to be banked so that the car will not skid sideways in the presence of friction. We need to find the angle should the curve be banked. Let the angle is θ. It is given by :

tan{\theta}=\dfrac{v^2}{rg}

Where

g = acceleration due to gravity

tan\ {\theta}=\dfrac{(21\ m/s)^2}{80\ m\times 9.8\ m/s^2}

\theta=tan^{-1}(0.5625)

θ = 29.35°

Hence, this is the required solution.

How can being near a large body of water affect the climate of the region?
shepuryov [24]

Answer:

yes

Explanation:

If you've ever heard of lake effect snow that is when cold air mass moves across long expanses of warmer lake water. The lower layer of air, heated up by the lake water, picks up water vapor from the lake and rises up through the colder air above; the vapor then freezes and is deposited on the leeward (downwind) shore. this is most common with lake Michigan when cold air travels down from Canada making the neighboring states colder, so YES, being near any body of water can effect the climate.

I hope this helps

Why do you rotate when you hold a spinning wheel?
choli [55]
When you hold a spinning wheel, the wheel and you, chair included, form a system that obeys the principle of "conservation of angular momentum". This means that any changes in angular momentum within the system must accompanied by an equal and opposite change, so the net force is zero.

Which statement is true for objects in dynamic equilibrium?
lakkis [162]

Answer:

The correct answer to the question is objects have zero acceleration.

Explanation:

Before answering the question, first we have to understand dynamic equilibrium .

A body moving with uniform velocity is said to be in dynamic equilibrium if the net external forces acting on the body is zero. Hence, the body is under balanced forces.

If the external forces acting on a body is not balanced, then the body will accelerate which will destroy its equilibrium condition. Hence, the necessary and sufficient condition for a body to be in dynamic equilibrium is that the forces are balanced.

When a body is in dynamic equilibrium, the body moves with uniform velocity along a straight line unless and until it is compelled by some external unbalanced forces.

Hence, the rate of change of velocity or acceleration of the body will be zero.
