If a car takes a banked curve at less than the ideal speed, friction is needed to keep it from sliding toward the inside of the

curve (a real problem on icy mountain roads). (a) Calculate the ideal speed to take a 100 m radius curve banked at 15.0o. (b) What is the minimum coefficient of friction needed for a frightened dri

Answer:

a) The ideal speed = 16.21 m/s

b) Minimum co-efficient of friction = 0.216

Explanation:

From the given information:

The ideal speed can be determined by considering the centrifugal force component and the gravity component.

\dfrac{mv^2}{r}cos \theta = mg sin \theta

v = \sqrt {gr \ tan \theta}

= \sqrt{(9.8 \ m/s^2) (100) \ tan 15^0}

= 16.21 m/s

(b)

Let assume that it requires 25 km/h to take the same curve.

Then, using the equilibrium conditions;

mg \ sin \theta = \dfrac{mv^2}{r} cos \theta + \mu ((\dfrac{mv^2}{r}) sin \theta + mg cos \theta)

\mu = \dfrac{mg sin \theta - \dfrac{mv^2}{r} cos \theta }{((\dfrac{mv^2}{r}) sin \theta + mg cos \theta) }

\mu = \dfrac{g sin \theta - \dfrac{ v^2}{r} cos \theta }{((\dfrac{v^2}{r}) sin \theta + g cos \theta) }

\mu = \dfrac{(9.8 \ m/s^2 )  sin (15^0) - \dfrac{ \dfrac{(25 \times 10^3}{3600} \ m/s)^2 }{100 \ m } cos (15^0) }{((\dfrac{(\dfrac{25 \times 10^3}{3600} )^2}{100}) sin 15^0 + (9.8 \ m/s^2)  cos 15^0 ) }

\mathbf{\mu = 0.216}

Which of the following statements is an accurate description of vibrations?
dexar [7]
<span>So we want to know what statement is an accurate description of vibrations. So humans can hear sound frequencies from 20-20000 Hz. Below 20 Hz is infra sound and above 20000 Hz is ultra sound. Humans cant hear both infra sound and ultra sound so the correct answer is A.</span>
