Answer:
1.41 m/s^2
Explanation:
First of all, let's convert the two speeds from km/h to m/s:
Now we find the centripetal acceleration which is given by
where
v = 12.8 m/s is the speed
r = 140 m is the radius of the curve
Substituting values, we find
we also have a tangential acceleration, which is given by
where
t = 17.0 s
Substituting values,
The two components of the acceleration are perpendicular to each other, so we can find the resultant acceleration by using Pythagorean theorem:
Answer:
c
Explanation:
kinetic energy is energy an object has due to its movement. for instance, if someone was riding down a hill, when the motion of the bike begins to decrease so does the kinetic energy
Answer:
875 N
Explanation:
From this question, you didn't state the time taken for the bumper car to move or to hit the other bumper car. In calculations of force, time is often needed, because
Force = mass * acceleration, while
Acceleration = velocity / time, basically
Force = mass * velocity / time.
We have our mass, we have our velocity, but we haven't time. So, for this calculation, I'd assume our time to be 1s.
Going by the formula I stated, we can then say that
Force = 250 * 3.5 / 1
Force = 875 N
This means the force my bumper car have while moving at 3.5 m/s for an estimated time of 1s is 875 N
The centripetal force exerted on the automobile while rounding the curve is
<u>Explanation:</u>
given that
Objects moving around a circular track will experience centripetal force towards the center of the circular track.
