Answer:

Measuring potential difference Potential difference is measured using a device called a . Just like ammeters, some types have a pointer on a dial, but most have a digital display. However, unlike an ammeter, you must connect the voltmeter in parallel to measure the potential difference across a component in a circuit.

To measure the potential difference across a component, a voltmeter must be placed in parallel with that component in order to measure the difference in energy from one side of the component to the other. Potential difference is also known as voltage and is measured in volts (V).

Car 1 goes around a level curve at a constant speed of 65 km/h . The curve is a circular arc with a radius of 95 m . Car 2 goes

Arte-miy333 [17]

Answer:

The radius of the curve that Car 2 travels on is 380 meters.

Explanation:

Speed of car 1, $v_1=65\ km/h$

Radius of the circular arc, $r_1=95\ m$

Car 2 has twice the speed of Car 1, $v_2=130\ km/h$

We need to find the radius of the curve that Car 2 travels on have to be in order for both cars to have the same centripetal acceleration. We know that the centripetal acceleration is given by :

$a=\dfrac{v^2}{r}$
