Suppose a NASCAR race car rounds one end of the Martinsville Speedway. This end of the track is a turn with a radius of approxim

Answer:

Centripetal acceleration of the car is 17.4 m/s²

Explanation:

It is given that,

Radius of the track, r = 57 m

Speed of car, v = 31.5 m/s

We need to find the centripetal acceleration of the race car. The formula for the centripetal acceleration is given by :

$a=\dfrac{v^2}{r}$

$a=\dfrac{(31.5\ m/s)^2}{57\ m}$

$a=17.4\ m/s^2$

So, the centripetal acceleration of the race car is 17.4 m/s². Hence, this is the required solution.

Two blocks, 1 and 2, are connected by a rope R1 of negligible mass. A second rope R2, also of negligible mass, is tied to block

alekssr [168]

Answer:

Explanation:

Given

Two block are connected by rope $R_1$

$R_2$ rope is attached to block 2

suppose $F_2$ is a force applied to Rope $R_2$

Applied force $F_2$ =Tension in Rope 2

$F_2=(m_1+m_2)a---1$

where a=acceleration of system

Tension in rope $R_1$ is denoted by $F_1$

$F_1=m_1a---2$

divide 1 and 2 we get

$\frac{F_2}{F_1}=\frac{(m_1+m_2)a}{m_1a}$

also $m_1=2.11\cdot m_2$

$\frac{F_2}{F_1}=\frac{2.11m_2+m_2}{2.11m_2}$

$\frac{F_2}{F_1}=\frac{3.11}{2.11}$

$\frac{F_1}{F_2}=\frac{2.11}{3.11}$

A sample of a gas occupies a volume of 90 mL at 298 K and a pressure of 702 mm Hg. What is the correct expression for calculatin

aleksandr82 [10.1K]

Answer:

Explanation:

Given

volume of sample $V_1=90\ mL$

Temperature $T_1=298\ K$

Pressure $P_1=702\ mm\ of\ Hg$

for different conditions

Temperature $T_2=273\ K$

Pressure $P_2=760\ mm\ of\ Hg$

suppose $V_2$ is the volume of sample

Using ideal gas equation

$PV=nRT$

$\frac{P_1V_1}{T_1}=\frac{P_2V_2}{T_2}$

$\frac{702\times 90}{298}=\frac{760\times V_2}{273}$

$V_2=76.15\ mL$

The ends of a massless rope are attached to two stationary objects (e.g., two trees or two cars) so that the rope makes a straig

julia-pushkina [17]

Answer: They are all true

a. The tension in the rope is everywhere the same.

b. The magnitudes of the forces exerted on the two objects by the rope are the same.

c. The forces exerted on the two objects by the rope must be in opposite directions.

d. The forces exerted on the two objects by the rope must be in the direction of the rope.

Hope this helps, now you know the answer and how to do it. HAVE A BLESSED AND WONDERFUL DAY! As well as a great rest of Black History Month! :-)

Which is NOT a "commonsense" psychological myth?

disa [49]

Answer:A. infants who listen to Mozart are smarter than those that don't.

Explanation: Common Sense is a sound practical judgement of the scheme of things, it can be easily understood as one thinks about life situation.

All other options such as MOST OLDER PEOPLE LIVE SAD AND SOLITARY LIVES ARE CORRECT AS THEY ARE KNOWN TO BE MORE LIKELY TO FALL SICK EASILY.

EATING "COMFORT FOOD" MAKES YOU FEEL HAPPIER IS KNOWN TO BE TRUE AND "COMMONSENSE"

UNLEASHING ANGER CAN MAKE YOU MORE AGGRESSIVE IS A "COMMONSENSE".

only the first option which says infants who listen to Mozart are smarter than those that don't listen to Mozart is not a "commonsense" psychological myth.
