Find an expression for the minimum frictional coefficient needed to keep a car with speed v on a banked turn of radius R designe
solniwko [45]
"v0" means that there are no friction forces at that speed
<span>mgsinΘ = (mv0²/r)cosΘ → the variable m cancels </span>
<span>sinΘ/cosΘ = tanΘ = v0² / gr 
</span><span>Θ = arctan(v0² / gr) </span>

<span>When v > v0, friction points downslope: </span>
<span>mgsinΘ + µ(mgcosΘ + (mv²/r)sinΘ) = (mv²/r)cosΘ → m cancels: </span>
<span>gsinΘ + µ(gcosΘ + (v²/r)sinΘ) = (v²/r)cosΘ </span>
<span>µ = ((v²/r)cosΘ - gsinΘ) / (gcosΘ + (v²/r)sinΘ) </span>
<span>where Θ is defined above. </span>

<span>When v > v0, friction points upslope: </span>
<span>mgsinΘ - µ(mgcosΘ + (mv²/r)sinΘ) = (mv²/r)cosΘ → m cancels: </span>
<span>gsinΘ - µ(gcosΘ + (v²/r)sinΘ) = (v²/r)cosΘ </span>
<span>µ = (gsinΘ - (v²/r)cosΘ) / (gcosΘ + (v²/r)sinΘ) </span>
<span>where Θ is defined above. </span>

A man is dragging a trunk up the loading ramp of a mover’s truck. The ramp has a slope angle of 20.0°, and the man pulls upward
AleksandrR [38]

Answer:

(a)  104 N

(b) 52 N

Explanation:

Given Data

Angle of inclination of the ramp: 20°

F makes an angle of 30° with the ramp

The component of F parallel to the ramp is Fx = 90 N.  

The component of F perpendicular to the ramp is Fy.

(a)  

Let the +x-direction be up the incline and the +y-direction by the perpendicular to the surface of the incline.  

Resolve F into its x-component from Pythagorean theorem:  

Fx=Fcos30°

Solve for F:  

F= Fx/cos30°  

Substitute for Fx from given data:  

Fx=90 N/cos30°

   =104 N

(b) Resolve r into its y-component from Pythagorean theorem:

     Fy = Fsin 30°

   Substitute for F from part (a):

     Fy = (104 N) (sin 30°)  

          = 52 N

The Earth's place in space can be described as _________.
Olin [163]
The answer is B because if you use process of elimination, you find that A is invalid because Venus is the second planet. C is out because Mars is the 4th planet. D is out because we are nowhere  near the Andromeda Galaxy. We are millions of light years away.
