The net force on the car is the friction that keeps it on the road, which points toward the center of the circle of the curve. Then by Newton's second law, we have

• net vertical force:

∑ <em>F</em> = <em>N</em> - <em>W</em> = 0

• net horizontal force:

∑ <em>F</em> = <em>Fs</em> = <em>m a</em>

where

<em>N</em> = magnitude of normal force

<em>W</em> = car's weight

<em>Fs</em> = mag. of static friction

<em>m</em> = car's mass

<em>a</em> = <em>v</em> ²/<em>R</em> = mag. of the centripetal acceleration

<em>v</em> = car's speed

<em>R</em> = radius of curve

Now,

• compute the car's weight:

<em>W</em> = <em>m g</em> = (1500 kg) (9.8 m/s²) = 14,700 N

• solve for the mag. of the normal force:

<em>N</em> = 14,700 N

• solve for the mag. of the friction force, using the given friction coefficient:

<em>Fs</em> = 0.5 <em>N</em> = 7350 N

• solve for the (maximum) acceleration:

7350 <em>N</em> = (1500 kg) <em>a</em>   →   <em>a</em> = 4.9 m/s²

• solve for the (maximum) speed:

4.9 m/s² = <em>v</em> ²/ (35 m)   →   <em>v</em> ≈ 13 m/s

A submarine sends a signal and receives an echo after 5 seconds. Calculate the speed of sound if distance of object from submari
Reil [10]

speed = distance \div time
Since the sound travels from the submarine to the object AND back, it actually travelled 3625x2=7250m.

7250 \div 5 = 1450
Speed of sound: 1450m/s

Aunt Matilda goes to a well and throws a penny straight down the well at 3.0 m/s. She hears a splash after 0.5 seconds. How deep
nevsk [136]

Answer : The correct option is (d) 2.73 m

Explanation :

By the 2nd equation of motion,

s=ut+\frac{1}{2}at^2

where,

s = distance or height = ?

u = initial velocity  = 3.0 m/s

t = time = 0.5 s

a = acceleration due to gravity = 9.8m/s^2

Now put all the given values in the above equation, we get:

s=(3.0m/s)\times (0.5s)+\frac{1}{2}\times (9.8m/s^2)\times (0.5s)^2

s=2.73m

Therefore, the correct option is (d) 2.73 m

Explain at least 3 primary and secondary online sources of data<br>​
Slav-nsk [51]

Answer And Explanation:

Primary sources of online data could be blog posts, twitter posts, and vlogs because the person producing forms of work is giving first-person account of his experience.

Secondary sources online data could be articles, news, and documentaries because people have gathered several primary sources to build their case that they are making.

Hope this is clear, and good luck with studies :)

How the behavior of waves is affected by a medium
Schach [20]
The medium determines the speed of the wave traveling in it, which also can have a number of other effects, including how much the wave bends (refracts), whether it reflects, etc.
Because waves move through space, they must have a velocity. The velocity of a wave is a function of the type of wave, and the medium it travels through. Electromagnetic waves moving through a vacuum, for instance, travel at roughly 3 x
