Get started for freeA car weighing 10.7kNand traveling at 13.4 m/swithout negative lift attempts to round an unbanked curve with a radius of 61.0 m. (a) What magnitude of the frictional force on the tires is required to keep the car on its circular path? (b) If the coefficient of static friction between the tires and the road is 0.350, is the attempt at taking the curve successful?
A police officer in hot pursuit drives her car through a circular turn of radius with a constant speed of . Her mass is. What are (a) the magnitude and (b) the angle (relative to vertical) of the net force of the officer on the car seat? (Hint: Consider both horizontal and vertical forces)
An airplane is flying in a horizontal circle at a speed of (Fig. 6-41). If its wings are tilted at angleto the horizontal, what is the radius of the circle in which the plane is flying? Assume that the required force is provided entirely by an “aerodynamic lift” that is perpendicular to the wing surface.
An initially stationary box of sand is to be pulled across a floor by means of a cable in which the tension should not exceed . The coefficient of static friction between the box and the floor is . (a) What should be the angle between the cable and the horizontal in order to pull the greatest possible amount of sand, and (b) what is the weight of the sand and box in that situation?
In the early afternoon, a car is parked on a street that runs down a steep hill, at an angle ofrelative to the horizontal. Just then the coefficient of static friction between the tires and the street surface is 0.725. Later, after nightfall, a sleet storm hits the area, and the coefficient decreases due to both the ice and a chemical change in the road surface because of the temperature decrease. By what percentage must the coefficient decrease if the car is to be in danger of sliding down the street?
