Answer:

R = 2.1R_{\bigodot}

                         

Explanation:                          

The radius (R) is related to temperature (T) and the luminosity (L) as follows:    

L = T^{4} \times R^{2}      

By solving the above equation for R we have:

R = \frac{\sqrt{L}}{T^{2}}

With L = 70L_{\bigodot} and T = 2T_{\bigodot} we have:

R = \frac{\sqrt{70L_{\bigodot}}}{(2T_{\bigodot})^{2}}

R = \frac{\sqrt{70}}{(2)^{2}}

R = 2.1R_{\bigodot}

Therefore, the radius is 2.1 times that of the Sun.

I hope it helps you!

A car travels around a level, circular track that is 750m across. What coefficient of friction is required to ensure the car can
Crank

The coefficient of friction must be 0.196

Explanation:

For a car moving on a circular track, the frictional force provides the centripetal force needed to keep the car in circular motion. Therefore, we can write:

\mu mg = m\frac{v^2}{r}

where the term on the left is the frictional force acting between the tires of the car and the road, while the term on the right is the centripetal force. The various terms are:

\mu is the coefficient of friction between the tires and the road

m is the mass of the car

g=9.8 m/s^2 is the acceleration of gravity

v is the speed of the car

r is the radius of the curve

In this problem,

r = 750 m is the radius

v=85 mph \cdot \frac{1609}{3600}=38.0 m/s is the speed

And solving for \mu, we find the coefficient of friction required to keep the car in circular motion:

\mu = \frac{v^2}{rg}=\frac{38.0^2}{(750)(9.8)}=0.196
