Answer:
a)
b)
c)
Explanation:
<em><u>The knowable variables are </u></em>
Since the three traffic signs are <u>equally spaced</u>, the <u>distance between each sign is </u>
a)
b)
Since we know the velocity in two points and the time the car takes to pass the traffic signs
c)
Answer:
24.3 degrees
Explanation:
A car traveling in circular motion at linear speed v = 12.8 m/s around a circle of radius r = 37 m is subjected to a centripetal acceleration:
Let α be the banked angle, as α > 0, the outward centripetal acceleration vector is split into 2 components, 1 parallel and the other perpendicular to the road. The one that is parallel has a magnitude of 4.43cosα and is the one that would make the car slip.
Similarly, gravitational acceleration g is split into 2 component, one parallel and the other perpendicular to the road surface. The one that is parallel has a magnitude of gsinα and is the one that keeps the car from slipping outward.
So
