A 500kg car is driven forward with a thrust force of 1500N. Air resistance and friction acts against the motion of the car with

magnitude 200N and 300N respectively. What is the acceleration of the car?

2m/s^2, this is because F=ma, meaning a is also equal to F/m. The car applies 1500N in one direction and outside sources apply a total of -500N, meaning the 500kg car is moving forward with a total of 1000N of force. Taking the total 1000N and dividing it by 500kg gives you and acceleration of 2m/s^2. Hope this helps!

Is it safe to drive your 1600-kg car at speed 34 m/s around a level highway curve of radius 190 m if the effective coefficient o
adoni [48]

Answer:

It is unsafe

Explanation:

v = Velocity of car = 34 m/s

r = Radius of turn = 190 m

\mu = Coefficient of static friction = 0.5

m = Mass of car = 1600 kg

g = Acceleration due to gravity = 9.81 m/s²

The centripetal force is given by

F_c=m\frac{v^2}{r}\\\Rightarrow F_c=1600\frac{34^2}{190}\\\Rightarrow F_c=9734.73\ N

The frictional force is given by

F_f=\mu mg\\\Rightarrow F_f=0.5\times 1600\times 9.81\\\Rightarrow F_f=7848\ N

If the centripetal force is greater than the frictional force then the car will slip which makes it unsafe.

Here, the centripetal force is greater than the frictional force which makes it unsafe to drive it at that speed.

Which statements provides evidence that the earth revolves around the sun
Aloiza [94]

Answer:

Different star constellations are visible from Earth at different seasons of the year.

Explanation:

The reason the fact that we can see different constellations in the sky during different seasons on earth is the most compelling reason we travel around the sun is because if the sun travelled around the earth, certain constellations would only be visible in certain places. You’d have to travel to see certain ones.

However, you don’t have to do that because we travel around the sun, therefore travelling around other stars too.

a gym consists of a rectangular region with a semi-circle on each end. if the perimeter of the room is to be a 200 m running tra
Nikolay [14]

The dimensions of the rectangle are:

l = 50 m

b = 100/\pi m

<h3>What is a perimeter in math?</h3>

The perimeter is the length of the outline of a shape. To find the perimeter of a rectangle or square you have to add the lengths of all the four sides.

<h3>How do we find a perimeter of a rectangle?</h3>

The perimeter of a rectangle,denoted by P is given by the formula, P=2l+2b, where l is the length and b is the breadth of the rectangle.

<h3>Given:</h3>

As per the question:

Perimeter of the room is given as P = 200 m

The region is rectangular having a semicircle at each end.

Now,

Let 'l' be the length of the rectangle, 'b' be its breadth and 'r' be the radius of the semi-circle at each end.

Then, Area of the given rectangle, A = lb

Perimeter of the room, P is =\pi r+l+\pi r+l=2\pi r+2l=\pi b+2l

Therefore,  \pi b+2l=200

b=(200-2l)/\pi

Now,

Area, A = l(200-2l)/\pi=(200l-2l^{2} )/\pi

Now, differentiate A w.r.t l:

Again differentiating w.r.t 'l', we get:

d^{2} A/dl^{2} =-4l/\pi< 0

Thus we get maximum are when dA/dl=0

Therefore,

(200-4l)/\pi=0

l = 50 m

Now, from

\pi b+2l=200

\pi b=200-2*50

b=100/\pi

r=b/2=50/\pi
