Answer:

The banking angle of the road is 16.38 degrees.

Explanation:

Given:

Radius of the roadway on curve, R = 50 m

velocity of the moving car, V = 12 m/s

The banking angle can be calculated by using the formula below:

If there's no frictional force, then net force is equal to centripetal force.

MgTanΦ = (MV^2)/ R

TanΦ = V^2 / gR

Where;

Φ is the banking angle

g is acceleration due to gravity

TanΦ = (12 x 12) / (9.8 x 50)

TanΦ = 0.2939

Φ = arctan (0.2939)

Φ = 16.38 degrees

Therefore, the banking angle of the road is 16.38 degrees.

Kate is researching air pollution and finds some information on ozone. She knows that ozone is a good thing as part of the ozone
jek_recluse [69]

"At ground level, ozone contributes to smog" so it is also an air pollutant.

Option: A

<u>Explanation</u>:

ozone is naturally present in stratosphere and acts as shield against harmful ultraviolet radiations. But it acts a pollutant contributing to global warming when it is present in lower level atmosphere particularly troposphere. In this level it combines with primary pollutants that is "nitrogen oxides" and "volatile organic" compounds to form secondary pollutant which absorbs outgoing radiation and contributes in raising the temperature. It has harmful impacts on vegetation as well as human health.

Kara Less was applying her makeup when she drove into South's busy parking lot last Friday morning. Unaware that Lisa Ford was s
exis [7]

Answer

given,

Mass of Kara's car = 1300 Kg

moving with speed = 11 m/s

time taken to stop = 0.14 s

final velocity = 0 m/s

distance between Lisa ford and Kara's car = 30 m

a) change in momentum of Kara's car

  Δ P = m Δ v                  

  \Delta P = m (v_f-v_i)

  \Delta P = 1300 (0 - 11)

  Δ P = - 1.43 x 10⁴ kg.m/s

b) impulse is equal to change in momentum of the car

    I = - 1.43 x 10⁴ kg.m/s

c) magnitude of force experienced by Kara

  I = F x t

 I is impulse acting on the car

 t is time

  - 1.43 x 10⁴= F x 0.14

    F = -1.021 x 10⁵ N

negative sign represents the direction of force

Problem: An ice hockey player hits a puck of mass 0.15 kilograms with a force of 100 newtons in the horizontal direction. What i
valina [46]
The acceleration produced in a body is always in the direction of the resultant force acting on the body. Therefore, we may determine the horizontal acceleration using the horizontal force applied. To do this, we may apply the mathematical form of Newton's second law:

Force = mass * acceleration
acceleration = force / mass

Substituting the values,
a = 100 / 0.15
a = 666.7 m/s²

The acceleration of the hockey puck is 670 m/s²

Recall that weight is a force and is equal to m*g, where g is the acceleration due to gravity exerted by the Earth near the Eart
Marysya12 [62]

Answer:

145.43 N

Explanation:

Weight is given by (mg)

where m = mass of the body

g = acceleration due to gravity

mass is constant everywhere and is equal to 77.1 kg, both on the earth and on the moon.

But the acceleration due to gravity exerted by the moon near the moon's surface is 16.6% that of Earth,

g(moon) = 0.166 g(earth) = 0.166 × 9.8 = 1.6268 m/s²

Weight on the moon = mg(moon) = (77.1×1.6268) = 125.43 N
