A car drives straight down toward the bottom of a valley and up the other side on a road whose bottom has a radius of curvature

of 115m. At the very bottom, the normal force on the driver is twice his weight. At what speed was the car traveling?

Answer:33.58794 m/s

Explanation : fCenrtipetal force = mv2/r

m = Mass of car

r = Radius of curvature = 115 m

g = Acceleration due to gravity = 9.81 m/s²

The normal force is given by

N=Fc+mg

At the bottom N = 2N

2mg=fc+mg

⇒2mg=mv2

The car was traveling at the speed of 33.58794 m/s

Nonamiya [84]

Answer:

(a) 1.11 m

(b) 4760 kgm/s  

Explanation:

height of plane (h) = 370 m

velocity (v) = 56 m/s

mass (m) = 85 kg

force = 1.2 x 10^{5} N = 120,000 N

(a) We can get the minimum depth of snow from the equation below

   force x depth = kinetic energy on impact

 f x d = 0.5 x m x v^{2}

 120000 x d = 0.5 x 85 x 56^{2}

 d= (0.5 x 85 x 56^{2}) ÷ 120000 = 1.11 m

(b) the magnitude of impulse is equal to the momentum of the paratrooper and his gear

 = m x v

= 85 x 56 = 4760 kgm/s
