Answer:

The slope of a velocity graph represents the acceleration of the object.

Explanation:

So, the value of the slope at a particular time represents the acceleration of the object at that instant.

A 1000-kg car is moving at 30 m/s around a horizontal unbanked curve whose diameter is 0.20 km. What is the magnitude of the fri

omeli [17]

Answer:

4500 N

Explanation:

When a body is moving in a circular motion it will feel an acceleration directed towards the center of the circle, this acceleration is:

a = v^2/r

where v is the velocity of the body and r is the radius of the circumference:

Therefore, a body with mass m, will feel a force f:

f = m v^2/r

Therefore we need another force to keep the body(car) from sliding, this will be given by friction, remember that friction force is given a the normal times a constant of friction mu, that is:

fs = μN = μmg

The car will not slide if f = fs, i.e.

fs = μmg = m v^2/r

That is, the magnitude of the friction force must be (at least) equal to the force due to the centripetal acceleration

fs = (1000 kg) * (30m/s)^2 / (200 m) = 4500 N

The glass in a window is 35 inches wide and 20 inches tall, and standard atmospheric pressure is 14.7 pounds per square inch. Wh

iogann1982 [59]

Answer:103 pounds

Explanation:

Given

width of window $b=35 in.$

height of window $h=20 in.$

standard atmospheric pressure $P_{outside}=14.7 psi$

Also $P_{inside}=1.01P_{outside}$

Thus Net Force on the window will be the algebraic sum of Force due to outside and inside Pressure .

$F_{net}=(P_{inside}-P_{outside})\cdot A$

$F_{net}=P_{outside}(1.01-1)\times 35\times 20$

$F_{net}=14.7\times 0.01\times 35\times 20$

$F_{net}=102.9\ pounds\approx 103\ pounds$

A person has legs of length L = 1.10 m. (a) If the maximum angle between the legs during walking is ϕ = 50o , what is the person

vampirchik [111]

Answer:

a). Maximum Length L=0.929m

b). T=0.83 Hz or 1.2s

c). Longer, the effortless waling T=2.1 Hz or t=0.475s

d). t=1.2s V=0.774 $\frac{m}{s}$

t=0.475s V=1.95 $\frac{m}{s}$

Explanation:

Length legs=L=1.1m

angle=50

the step that give the person forms a triangle whose two sides are known and the angle that forms between them, then using trigonometry as the image

Divide the original triangle in two and form a right triangle so the angle is 25 and the L is hypotenuse and the opposite is the step length

a).

$sin(\alpha) =\frac{op}{h}$

$op=h*sin(\frac{\alpha }{2})\\ op=1.1m*sin(\frac{50}{2})\\op=0.464m$

Length of the step

L=0.464m*2

L=0.928m

b).

period=T

$T=\frac{1}{time}=\frac{1}{t}\\ T=\frac{1}{1.2s}\\T=0.83 s^{-1}\\ T=0.83Hz$

c).

$T1=2\pi *\sqrt{\frac{L}{g}} \\T1=2\pi *\sqrt{\frac{1.1m}{9.8\frac{m}{s^{2}}}}\\ T1=2.1 Hz$

The period is the inverse of the time of the motion so, the T1 is faster that the T because

$t=\frac{1}{T1}=t= \frac{1}{2.1}=0.47s$

d).

The speed is the relation between the distance with time so:

$Vt=\frac{0.928m}{1.2s} \\Vt=0.773 \frac{m}{s} \\Vt=\frac{0.928m}{0.475s} \\Vt=1.953 \frac{m}{s}$
