Reika [66]3 years ago

Answer:

0.25m/s

Explanation:

Given parameters

m₁  = 5kg

v₁ = 1.0m/s

m₂ = 15kg

v₂ = 0m/s

Unknown:

velocity after collision = ?

Solution:

Momentum before collision and after collision will be the same. For inelastic collision;

    m₁v₁ + m₂v₂  = v(m₁ + m₂)

Insert parameters and solve for v;

   5 x 1  + 15 x 0 = v (5 + 15 )

          5  = 20v

          v = \frac{5}{20}   = 0.25m/s

To counter the effects of centrifugal force and reduce vehicle traction it is important to to counter the effects of centrifugal
tatiyna
Answer:  Add an incline or grade to the road track.

Explanation:
Refer to the figure shown below.

When a vehicle travels on a level road in a circular path of radius r, a centrifugal force, F, tends to make the vehicle skid away from the center of the circular path.
The magnitude of the force is
F = mv²/r
where
m = mass of the vehicle
v =  linear (tangential) velocity to the circular path.

The force that resists the skidding of the vehicle is provided by tractional frictional force at the tires, of magnitude
μN = μW = μmg
where
μ = dynamic coefficient of friction.

At high speeds, the frictional force will not overcome the centrifugal force, and the vehicle will skid.

When an incline of θ degrees is added to the road track, the frictional force is augmented by the component of the weight of the vehicle along the incline.
 Therefore the force that opposes the centrifugal force becomes
μN + Wsinθ = W(sinθ + μ cosθ).
