Answer:

maximum possible velocity = $\sqrt{ugR}$

Explanation:

centripetal acceleration when the car is going in the circle must be less than the maximum friction for the car to not slip.

centripetal acceleration $\frac{mv^{2}}{r}$

where v is the velocity of car and r is the radius of circle

maximum friction = umg

where u is the coefficient of static friction.

therefore $umg\geq \frac{mv^{2}}{R}$

therefore maximum possible velocity = $\sqrt{ugR}$

Which radiation has a higher frequency than visible light

Bogdan [553]

Infrared radiation lies between the visible and microwave portions of the electromagnetic spectrum. Infrared waves have wavelengths longer than visible and shorter than microwaves, and have frequencies which are lower than visible and higher than microwaves.

An astronaut lands on a new, recently discovered planet in a different star system. The astronaut measures the acceleration due

Nezavi [6.7K]

Answer:

The radius of the new planet is ~2.04 * 10⁶ m, or 2,041,752 m.

Explanation:

We can use Newton's Law of Universal Gravitation:

$\displaystyle F_g=G\frac{Mm}{r^2}$

Let's look at Newton's 2nd Law:

$F=ma$

We can set these equations equal to each other:

$\displaystyle G\frac{Mm}{r^2} =ma$

The mass of the second mass (astronaut) cancels out. We are left with:

$\displaystyle G\frac{M}{r^2} =a$

We are solving for the radius of the new planet, so we can rearrange the equation:

$\displaystyle r=\sqrt{\frac{GM}{a} }$

Substitute in our known values given in the problem (G = 6.67 * 10⁻¹¹ ; M = 7.5 * 10²³ ; a = 12).

$\displaystyle r =\sqrt{\frac{(6.67\times 10^{-11})(7.5 \times 10^{23}}{12} }$
$r=2.04 \times 10^6$

The radius of the new planet is ~2.04 * 10⁶ m.

Answer:

Implicit memory

Explanation:

Implicit memory stores skill-related data by repeating an activity that always follows the same pattern. It includes all motor, sensory, and intellectual skills, as well as every form of conditioning. The capacity thus acquired does not depend on consciousness. We are able to perform sometimes complex tasks with our thinking turned to something completely different. This explains why Adam types so fast without even remembering the exact location of the letters on the keyboard.

A rifle that shoots bullets at 477 m/s is to be aimed at a target 45.5 m away. If the center of the target is level with the rif

Free_Kalibri [48]

Answer:

The rifle barrel must be pointed at a height of 4.45cm above the target so that the bullet hits dead center.

Explanation:

First, we need to sketch the situation so we can have a better idea of what the problem looks like (Refer to uploaded picture).

So as you may see in the drawing, when pointing the rifle to the target, we can see it as a triangle, but in reality, the bullet will have a parabolic trajectory. Both points of view will help us determine what the height must be. In order to find it, we need to first determine at what angle the bullet should be shot. In order to do so we can use the range formula, which looks like this:

$R=\frac{v^{2}sin(2\theta)}{g}$

Where R is the range of the bullet (this is how far it goes before it has the

same height it was shot from), v is the original speed of the bullet, θ is the angle at which the bullet is shot and g is the acceleration of gravity.

We can solve this equation for theta, so we get:

$gR=v^{2}sin(2\theta)$
