Answer:

736.49 meters

Explanation:

Step one:

Given data

mass m= 3400kg

speed= 170 m/s

At the top of the loop the pilot feels three times his normal weight

hence we multiply mass by 3 in our solution

Centrepetal force = mv^2/r-mg=3mg

Thereofore, (his true weight) + (the weight he feels) = mg + 3mg

so

mv^2/r=4mg

Step two:

centripetal force = mv^2/r=4mg

mv^2=4mgr

v^2=4gr

substitue

centripetal force

170^2 = 4*3400*9.81

so

170^2 = 4*9.81*r  

28900 = 39.24*r  

28900 =39.24*r  

divide both sides by 39.24

r=28900 /39.24

r=736.49 meters

You are using a lightweight rope to pull a sled along level ground. The sled weighs 485 N, the coefficient of kinetic friction b
Bogdan [553]

Answer:

N=459.01N

Explanation:

According to Newton's first law:

N+F_y-W=0

The component of the force on the y-axis can be obtained through the Pythagorean Theorem. This is because the components are the cathetus of a right triangle and its hypotenuse is the magnitude of the force:

sin12^\circ=\frac{F_y}{F}\\F_y=Fsin12^\circ

Replacing and solving for N:

N=W-Fsin12^\circ\\N=485N-(125N)sin12^\circ\\N=459.01N

|| Climbing ropes stretch when they catch a falling climber, thus increasing the time it takes the climber to come to rest and r
Otrada [13]

To solve this problem it is necessary to apply the concepts related to Newton's second law and the kinematic equations of movement description.

Newton's second law is defined as

F = ma

Where,

m = mass

a = acceleration

From this equation we can figure the acceleration out, then

a = \frac{F}{m}

a = \frac{11*10^3}{80}

a = 137.5m/s

From the cinematic equations of motion we know that

v_f^2-v_i^2 = 2ax

Where,

v_f =Final velocity

v_i =Initial velocity

a = acceleration

x = displacement

There is not Final velocity and the acceleration is equal to the gravity, then

v_f^2-v_i^2 = 2ax

0-v_i^2 = 2(-g)x

v_i =\sqrt{2gx}

v_i = \sqrt{2*9.8*4.8}

v_i = 9.69m/s

From the equation of motion where acceleration is equal to the velocity in function of time we have

a = \frac{v_i}{t}

t = \frac{v_i}{a}

t =\frac{9.69}{137.5}

t = 0.0705s

Therefore the time required is 0.0705s

When compared to others, how is a greater velocity represented on a motion map?
kakasveta [241]
Motion map has the points spaced farther apart (because the car would go a further distance in each second), and the velocity vectors (arrows) are longer, because the car is moving faster. So 'with longer vectors' is the correct answer
