To test the performance of its tires, a car

velikii [3]

<u>Answer</u>:

The coefficient of static friction between the tires and the road is 1.987

<u>Explanation</u>:

<u>Given</u>:

Radius of the track, r = 516 m

Tangential Acceleration $a_r$ = 3.89 m/s^2

Speed,v = 32.8 m/s

<u>To Find:</u>

The coefficient of static friction between the tires and the road = ?

<u>Solution</u>:

The radial Acceleration is given by,

$a_{R = \frac{v^2}{r}$

$a_{R = \frac{(32.8)^2}{516}$

$a_{R = \frac{(1075.84)}{516}$

$a_{R = 2.085 m/s^2$

Now the total acceleration is

$\text{ total acceleration} = \sqrt{\text{(tangential acceleration)}^2 +{\text{(Radial acceleration)}^2$

=> $= \sqrt{ (a_r)^2+(a_R)^2}$

=> $\sqrt{ (3.89 )^2+( 2.085)^2}$

=> $\sqrt{ (15.1321)+(4.347)^2}$

=> $19.4791 m/s^2$

The frictional force on the car will be f = ma------------(1)

And the force due to gravity is W = mg--------------------(2)

Now the coefficient of static friction is

$\mu =\frac{f}{W}$

From (1) and (2)

$\mu =\frac{ma}{mg}$

$\mu =\frac{a}{g}$

Substituting the values, we get

$\mu =\frac{19.4791}{9.8}$

$\mu =1.987$

An explorer is caught in a whiteout (in which the snowfall is so thick that the ground cannot be distinguished from the sky) whi

Veronika [31]

Answer:

$s=5.79\ km$

$\theta=47^{\circ}$ east of south

Explanation:

Given:

distance of the person form the initial position, $d'=8.4\ km$

direction of the person from the initial position, $47^{\circ}$ north of east

distance supposed to travel form the initial position, $d=5.3\ km$

direction supposed to travel from the initial position, due North

<u>Now refer the schematic for visualization of situation:</u>

$y=d'.\sin47^{\circ}-d$

$y=8.4\times \sin47-5.3$ ...............(1)

$x=d'.\cos47^{\circ}$

$x=8.4\times \cos47^{\circ}$ .................(2)

<u>Now the direction of the desired position with respect to south:</u>

$\tan\theta=\frac{y}{x}$

$\tan\theta=\frac{8.4\times \sin47}{8.4\times \cos47}$

$\theta=47^{\circ}$ east of south

<u>Now the distance from the current position to the desired position:</u>

$s=\sqrt{x^2+y^2}$

$s=\sqrt{(8.4\times \cos47)^2+(8.4\times \sin47-5.3)^2}$

$s=5.79\ km$

In which situation is work not being done?

almond37 [142]

AS

work done =W = F.d = F d cosФ (Ф is angle between force F and displacement d) If a body/object is moving on a smooth surface (friction-less surface ) .There is no force acting on that body. F=0 so W=FdcosФ= (0)dcosФ ⇒ W=0

Now if a body is facing some amount of force but under the action of force there is no displacement covered. d=0 so W =FdcosФ= F(0)cosФ ⇒W=0

example: A person is applying a force on rigid wall but wall remains at rest there is no displacement occurs in wall.

The third term upon which work done dependent is angle between force and displacement i.e Ф. If Ф=90° then W= FdcosФ= Fdcos90⇒ W=0 ( as cos 90°=0)

The magnetic force on a straight wire 0.69 m long is 1.5 x 10-3 N. The current in the wire is 16.9 A. What is the magnitude of t

VikaD [51]

Answer:

Magnitude of magnetic field is 1.29 x 10⁻⁴ T

Explanation:

Given :

Current flowing through the wire, I = 16.9 A

Length of wire. L = 0.69 m

Magnetic force experienced by the wire, F = 1.5 x 10⁻³ N

Consider B be the applied magnetic field.

The relation to determine the magnetic force experienced by current carrying wire is:

F = ILBsinθ

Here θ is the angle between magnetic field and current carrying wire.

According to the problem, the magnetic field and current carrying wire are perpendicular to each other, that means θ = 90⁰. So, the above equation becomes:

F = ILB

$B=\frac{F}{IL}$

Substitute the suitable values in the above equation.

$B=\frac{1.5\times10^{-3} }{16.9\times0.69}$

B = 1.29 x 10⁻⁴ T
