Answer:
28.1 mph
Explanation:
The force of friction acting on the car provides the centripetal force that keeps the car in circular motion around the curve, so we can write:
(1)
where
is the coefficient of friction
m is the mass of the car
g = 9.8 m/s^2 is the acceleration due to gravity
v is the maximum speed of the car
r is the radius of the trajectory
On the snowy day,
So the radius of the curve is
Now we can use this value and re-arrange again the eq. (1) to find the maximum speed of the car on a sunny day, when . We find:
Answer:
It took the projectile 120 s to reach the maximum height.
Explanation:
Given;
maximum height of the projectile, s = 180 km = 180,000 m
initial speed of the projectile, u = 3 km/s = 3000 m/s
final velocity at maximum height, v = 0
Apply the following kinematic equation for average velocity of the projectile;
Therefore, it took the projectile 120 s to reach the maximum height.
Answer
given,
mass of the person, m = 50 Kg
length of scaffold = 6 m
mass of scaffold, M= 70 Kg
distance of person standing from one end = 1.5 m
Tension in the vertical rope = ?
now equating all the vertical forces acting in the system.
T₁ + T₂ = m g + M g
T₁ + T₂ = 50 x 9.8 + 70 x 9.8
T₁ + T₂ = 1176...........(1)
system is equilibrium so, the moment along the system will also be zero.
taking moment about rope with tension T₂.
now,
T₁ x 6 - mg x (6-1.5) - M g x 3 = 0
'3 m' is used because the weight of the scaffold pass through center of gravity.
6 T₁ = 50 x 9.8 x 4.5 + 70 x 9.8 x 3
6 T₁ = 4263
T₁ = 710.5 N
from equation (1)
T₂ = 1176 - 710.5
T₂ = 465.5 N
hence, T₁ = 710.5 N and T₂ = 465.5 N
