Answer: C
Frictional force
Explanation:
The description of the question above is an example of a circular motion.
For a car travelling in a curved path, the frictional force between the tyres and the road surface will provide the centripetal force.
Since the road is banked, and the cross section of the banked road is constructed like a ramp. The car drives transversely to the slope of the ramp, so that the wheels of one side of the car are lower than the wheels on the other side of the car, for cornering the banked road, the car will not rely only on the frictional force.
Therefore, the correct answer is option C - the frictional force.
Strange as it may seem, that's true. (choice 'a'.)
"Acceleration" doesn't mean "speeding up". It means ANY change in
the speed or direction of motion. So a car with the brakes applied
and slowing down, and a point on the rim of a bicycle wheel that's
turning at a constant rate, are both accelerating.
Answer:
Depending on the relative position of the Earth the Sun and Neptune in the Earths orbit the distances are;
The closest (minimum) distance of Neptune from the Earth is 29 AU
The farthest (maximum) distance of Neptune fro the Earth is 31 AU
Explanation:
The following parameters are given;
The distance from the Earth to the Sun = 1 AU
The distance of Neptune from the Earth = 30 AU
We have;
When the Sun is between the Earth and Neptune, the distance is found by the relation;
Distance from the Earth to Neptune = 30 + 1 = 31 AU
When the Earth is between the Sun and Neptune, the distance is found by the relation;
Distance from the Earth to Neptune = 30 - 1 = 29 AU
Therefore, the closest distance from Neptune to the Earth in the Earth's Orbit is 29 AU
The farthest distance from Neptune to the Earth in the Earth's orbit is 31 AU.
