Answer:

If the velocity is constant, then there is no acceleration. That is, the value of the acceleration is 0.

iVinArrow [24]
There are missing data in the text of the problem (found them on internet):
- speed of the car at the top of the hill: v=15 m/s
- radius of the hill: r=100 m

Solution:

(a) The car is moving by circular motion. There are two forces acting on the car: the weight of the car W=mg (downwards) and the normal force N exerted by the road (upwards). The resultant of these two forces is equal to the centripetal force, m \frac{v^2}{r}, so we can write:
mg-N=m \frac{v^2}{r} (1)
By rearranging the equation and substituting the numbers, we find N:
N=mg-m \frac{v^2}{r}=(975 kg)(9.81 m/s^2)-(975 kg) \frac{(15 m/s)^2}{100 m}=7371 N

(b) The problem is exactly identical to step (a), but this time we have to use the mass of the driver instead of the mass of the car. Therefore, we find:
N=mg-m \frac{v^2}{r}=(62 kg)(9.81 m/s^2)-(62 kg) \frac{(15 m/s)^2}{100 m}=469 N

(c) To find the car speed at which the normal force is zero, we can just require N=0 in eq.(1). and the equation becomes:
mg=m \frac{v^2}{r}
from which we find
v= \sqrt{gr}= \sqrt{(9.81 m/s^2)(100 m)}=31.3 m/s

lesantik [10]
To solve this, we use the Wien's Displacement Law as shown in the attached picture. First, convert the temperature to Kelvin. 

C to F:
C = (F - 32)*5/9
C = (325 - 32)*5/9 = 162.78 °C

C to K:
K = C + 273
K = 162.78 + 273 = 435.78 K

λmax = 2898/435.78 = <em>6</em><em>.65 μm</em>

A spring with spring constant of 26 N/m is stretched 0.22 m from its equilibrium position. How much work must be done to stretch
Evgen [1.6K]

Answer:

1.503 J

Explanation:

Work done in stretching a spring = 1/2ke²

W = 1/2ke²........................... Equation 1

Where W = work done, k = spring constant, e = extension.

Given: k = 26 N/m, e = (0.22+0.12), = 0.34 m.

Substitute into equation 1

W = 1/2(26)(0.34²)

W = 13(0.1156)

W = 1.503 J.

Hence the work done to stretch it an additional 0.12 m = 1.503 J
