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

Answer:

An asteroid impact could affect the tilt of the Earth due to the force it applies onto the planet. This would change Earth's seasons due to the fact that Earth's tilt causes seasons.

A worker drives a 0.562 kg spike into a rail tie with a 2.26 kg sledgehammer. The hammer hits the spike with a speed of 64.4 m/s
zubka84 [21]

Answer:

Explanation:

Given that,

Mass of sledge hammer;

Mh =2.26 kg

Hammer speed;

Vh = 64.4 m/s

The expression fot the kinetic energy of the hammer is,

K.E(hammer) = ½Mh•Vh²

K.E(hammer) = ½ × 2.26 × 64.4²

K.E ( hammer) = 4686.52 J

If one forth of the kinetic energy is converted into internal energy, then

ΔU = ¼ × K.E(hammer)

∆U = ¼ × 4686.52

∆U = 1171.63 J

Thus, the increase in total internal energy will be 1171.63 J.

Both slicing a tomato and a chemical change such as burning toast cannot be reversed. however why is slicing a tomato sill consi
kondaur [170]
Slicing a tomato is still considered a physical change because you are only altering the shape of it by slicing it. It does not change color or make bubble when slicing the tomato. Therefore, it is still a physical change
