The answer to the blank above is 20. The speed limit given provided that you cannot see the tracks for 400 ft in both directions is always 20 mph. Basically, this 20 mph is decided based upon the traffic laws in order to avoid road casualties. Since it is "uncontrolled railroad crossing", the minimum speed should be implemented to slow down for the purpose of traffic calming measures. Other than this, the 20 mph is also applicable in narrowing roads as well as speed humps.

if a torque of 55.0 N/m is required and the largest force that can be exerted by you is 135 N what is th e length of the lever a
Whitepunk [10]

Answer:

r=0.41m

Explanation:

Torque is defined as the cross product between the position vector ( the lever arm vector connecting the origin to the point of force application) and the force vector.

\tau=r\times F

Due to the definition of cross product, the magnitude of the torque is given by:

\tau=rFsin\theta

Where \theta is the angle between the force and lever arm vectors. So, the length of the lever arm (r) is minimun when sin\theta is equal to one, solving for r:

r=\frac{\tau}{F}\\r=\frac{55\frac{N}{m}}{135N}\\r=0.41m

Solve the equation x=3logy2 for y.
melisa1 [442]

X = 3 · log(Y²)

X = 3 · 2·log(Y)

X/6 = log(Y)

10^(X/6) = 10^log(Y)

Y = 10^(X/6)

The static friction exerted on the block by the incline is \mu _ s _1 Mgcos \ \theta.

The given parameters;

  • <em>mass of the block, = M</em>
  • <em>coefficient of static friction in section 1, = </em>\mu_s_1<em />
  • <em>angle of inclination of the plane, = θ</em>

<em />

The normal force on the block is calculated as follows;

Fₙ = Mgcosθ

The static friction exerted on the block by the incline is calculated as follows;

F_s = \mu_s F_n\\\\F_s = \mu _s_1(Mg cos\ \theta)\\\\F_s = \mu _s_1 Mgcos\ \theta

Thus, the static friction exerted on the block by the incline is \mu _ s _1 Mgcos \ \theta
