Answer:

Explanation:

a. The source of centripetal force on the car is (3) the static friction force.

b. ac = v²/R = (20²)/50 = 8 m/s²

c. Fc = m(ac) = 1500(8) = 12 kN

d. μ = Fc/N = Fc/mg = 12000 / 1500(9.8) = 0.8163... ≈ 0.82

What is the mass of a large ship that has a momentum of 1.60x10^9 kg*m/s and is moving at a velocity of 10m/s?

Elden [556K]

Answer:

160000000 kg.

Explanation:

p=mv

p=1.6x10^9

v=10m/s

rearrange and substitute:

(1.6x10^9)=m(10)

m=(1.6x10^9)/10

m= 1.6x10^8 kg.

An archer fires an arrow at a castle 230 m away. The arrow is in flight for 6 seconds, then hits the wall of the castle and stic

Vika [28.1K]

Answer:

(a). The initial speed of the arrow is 49.96 m/s.

(b). The angle is 39.90°.

Explanation:

Given that,

Horizontal distance = 230 m

Time t = 6 sec

Vertical distance = 16 m

We need to calculate the horizontal component

Using formula of horizontal component

$R =u\cos\theta t$

Put the value into the formula

$\dfrac{230}{6} = u\cos\theta$

$u\cos\theta=38.33$ .....(I)

We need to calculate the height

Using vertical component

$H=u\sin\theta t-\dfrac{1}{2}gt^2$

Put the value in the equation

$16 =u\sin\theta\times6-\dfrac{1}{2}\times9.8\times6^2$

$u\sin\theta=\dfrac{16+9.8\times18}{6}$

$u\sin\theta=32.06$ .....(II)

Dividing equation (II) and (I)

$\dfrac{u\sin\theta}{u\cos\theta}=\dfrac{32.06}{38.33}$

$\tan\theta=0.8364$

$\theta=\tan^{-1}0.8364$

$\theta=39.90^{\circ}$

(a). We need to calculate the initial speed

Using equation (I)

$u\cos\theta\times t=38.33$

Put the value into the formula

$u =\dfrac{230}{6\times\cos39.90}$

$u=49.96\ m/s$

(b). We have already calculate the angle.

Hence, (a). The initial speed of the arrow is 49.96 m/s.

(b). The angle is 39.90°.

a dump truck travels 70mph for 3 hours, then for 20mph for another 2 hours in the same direction. what is the average speed the

Dmitry_Shevchenko [17]

Answer:

the average speed of the car is 170 mph.

Explanation:

Given;

initial speed, u = 70 mph

time of motion, t₁ = 3 hours

final speed, v = 20 mph

time of motion, t₂ = 2 hours

The average speed of the car is calculated as;

$v' = \frac{70(3) - 20(2)}{3-2} \\\\v' = 170 \ mph$

Therefore, the average speed of the car is 170 mph.

If a 340 N girl sits on a seesaw and is lifted 1.4 m in 1.6 s, how much work was done by the child on the other side?

blondinia [14]

In physics, work is defined as the total energy when an object is moved to a certain displacement by the application of external force. It is calculated by the expression W = Fd. For this case, the displacement is apparently zero, then there is no work in the system above.
