Answer:

The speed of the car, v = 21.69 m/s

Explanation:

The diameter is  = 48.01 m

Therefore, the radius of the loop R = 24.005 m

Weight at the top is n = mv^2/R - mg

Since the apparent weight is equal to the real weight.

So, mv^2/R - mg = mg

v = √(2Rg)

v = √[2(24.005 m)(9.8 m/s^2)]

The speed of the car, v = 21.69 m/s

Answer:

The speed is 15.34 m/s.

Explanation:

Diameter, d = 48.01 m

Radius, R = 24.005 m

Let the speed is v and the mass is m.

Here, the weight of the car is balanced by the centripetal force.

According to the question

m g = \frac{mv^2}{R}\\\\v =\sqrt{24.005\times9.8}\\\\v = 15.34 m/s

A spring is used to launch a coffee mug. The 20cm long spring can be compressed by a maximum of 8cm. The mug has a mass of 350 g
Zepler [3.9K]

Answer:

7503.13 N/m

Explanation:

Use principle of conservation of energy.

Here, energy stored in the spring due to compression shall be utilized in attaining the potential energy of the mug.

Given that,

Length of the spring = 20 cm = 0.20 m

Compression, x = 8 cm = 0.08 m

mass of the mug, m = 350 g = 0.35 kg

h = 7 m

use the expression for energy balance -

(1/2)*k*x^2 = m*g*h

=> k = (2*m*g*h) / x^2

input the values

k = (2*0.35*9.8*7) / 0.08^2

= 7503.13 N/m
