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}

Assume that the force exerted on each crutch by the ground is directed along the crutch, as the force vectors in the drawing ind
olya-2409 [2.1K]

Answer: 43 degrees

Explanation:

The force of the crutch can be broken into components.  The horizontal component of F is the static friction force keeping the crutch from sliding.  The vertical component is opposing the weight and is the Normal force.  Using the orientation of the angle q, we have the following

fs = Fx = F sin (angle (tita))

N = Fy = F cos (angle(tita))

Maximum angle implies maximum static friction

Therefore,

fsmax = UsN = Us x F cos(angle tita)

Where U = miyu

F sin(angle tita) = Us x Fcos (angle tita)

Sin (angle tita) / cos (angle tita) = Us

Therefore, tan (angle tita) = Us

Angle tita = tan^-1(Us) = tan^-1 (0.931) = 42.95 degrees = 43 degrees

There for Angle tita Max = 43 degrees

When does a circuit is said to be over loaded?​
Vlad [161]

Answer:

Every electric circuit in a wiring system must be protected against overloads. A circuit overload occurs when the amount of current flowing through the circuit exceeds the rating of the protective devices. The amount of current flowing in a circuit is determined by the load -- or the "demand" -- for current.

Explanation:

Hope this helps :)

In si units, the electric field in an electromagnetic wave is described by ey = 104 sin(1.40 107x − ωt). (a) find the amplitude
melamori03 [73]
Answers:
(a) B_o  = 0.3466μT
(b) \lambda = 0.4488μm
(c) f = 6.68 * 10^{14}Hz

Explanation:
Given electric field(in y direction) equation:
E_y = 104sin(1.40 * 10^7 x -\omega t)

(a) The amplitude of electric field is E_o = 104. Hence

The amplitude of magnetic field oscillations is B_o =  \frac{E_o}{c}
Where c = speed of light

Therefore,
B_o =  \frac{104}{3*10^8} = 0.3466μT (Where T is in seconds--signifies the oscillations)

(b) To find the wavelength use:
\frac{2 \pi }{\lambda} = 1.40 * 10^7
\lambda =  \frac{2 \pi}{1.40} * 10^{-7}
\lambda =  0.4488μm

(c) Since c = fλ
=> f = c/λ

Now plug-in the values
f = (3*10^8)/(0.4488*10^-6)
f = 6.68 * 10^{14}Hz
