Answer:

Banked

Explanation:

Banked curves are formed when the inner edge is below the outer edge.

It is done in order to ensure the reliability of the frictional force as it varies when the road is wet wet or oily. Thus in order to avoid these problems the curved roads are banked.

Banking of the curve provides the necessary centripetal force, i.e., the horizontal component of the normal reaction force to keep the vehicle i motion and thus helps in reducing the effect of the forward motion force on the vehicle.

Answer: The paper airplane will create a curved path towards the floor as it is pulled toward Earth's center.

Explanation: The paper airplane will be pulled to the center because Earth has a much greater mass than objects on its surface. And it will curve because of the amount of force you are putting onto the plane.

kvasek [131]

Answer:

Maximum height reached = 35.15 meter.

Explanation:

Projectile motion has two types of motion Horizontal and Vertical motion.

Vertical motion:

We have equation of motion, v = u + at, where v is the final velocity, u is the initial velocity, a is the acceleration and t is the time taken.

Considering upward vertical motion of projectile.

In this case, Initial velocity = vertical component of velocity = u sin θ, acceleration = acceleration due to gravity = -g $m/s^2$ and final velocity = 0 m/s.

0 = u sin θ - gt

t = u sin θ/g

Total time for vertical motion is two times time taken for upward vertical motion of projectile.

So total travel time of projectile = 2u sin θ/g

Horizontal motion:

We have equation of motion , $s= ut+\frac{1}{2} at^2$ , s is the displacement, u is the initial velocity, a is the acceleration and t is the time.

In this case Initial velocity = horizontal component of velocity = u cos θ, acceleration = 0 $m/s^2$ and time taken = 2u sin θ /g

So range of projectile, $R=ucos\theta*\frac{2u sin\theta}{g} = \frac{u^2sin2\theta}{g}$

Vertical motion (Maximum height reached, H) :

We have equation of motion, $v^2=u^2+2as$ , where u is the initial velocity, v is the final velocity, s is the displacement and a is the acceleration.

Initial velocity = vertical component of velocity = u sin θ, acceleration = -g, final velocity = 0 m/s at maximum height H

$0^2=(usin\theta) ^2-2gH\\ \\ H=\frac{u^2sin^2\theta}{2g}$

In the give problem we have R = 301.5 m, θ = 25° we need to find H.

So $\frac{u^2sin2\theta}{g}=301.5\\ \\ \frac{u^2sin(2*25)}{g}=301.5\\ \\ u^2=393.58g$

Now we have $H=\frac{u^2sin^2\theta}{2g}=\frac{393.58*g*sin^2 25}{2g}=35.15m$

So maximum height reached = 35.15 meter.

A car travels 500m in 50s, then 1,500m in 75s. Calculate its averages speed for the whole journey

SIZIF [17.4K]

Answer:

15m/s

Explanation:

500 ÷ 50 = 10m/s

1500 ÷ 75 = 20m/s

10 + 20 = 30

30 ÷ 2 = 15m/s

zhenek [66]

Complete Question

The complete question is shown on the first uploaded image

Answer:

Force on each hand is 196.22 N

Force on each foot is 95.8 N

Explanation:

In order to get a better understanding of this question let us explain some concepts

Normal Force:

We can define normal force Fn as that type of force which makes a 90 degree angle with the surface on which it is exerted.

Torque:

We can define torque as the moment of forces that tends to produce or cause rotation

From the question we are given that

Weight of body is (W) = 584 N

The normal force on both hands (Ha) = ?

The normal force on both legs (Lg) = ?

Looking at the diagram the person is at equilibrium so

584 = Ha + Lg

an also this mean that torques acting on the body is balanced

So, 0.410 Ha = 0.840 Lg

Making Lg the subject of formula in the equation above we

Lg = 0.4881 Ha

Considering the first equation and replacing Lg with this recent equation we have

584 = Ha + 0.4881 Ha

Therefore Ha = 392.44 N

This value obtained is for both hands for each hand we divide by 2

Therefore we have for each hand $= 392.44/2$ =196.55 N

Since we have been able to get the force on both hands we can substitute it in to the equation where we made Lg the subject of formula and we have

Lg = 0.4881 × 392.44

= 191.22 N

The value above is the force on both legs to obtain the force on each leg we have

191.22/2 = 95.8 N.
