Hi please help with the following: A turntable of radius 60 cm undergoes constant acceleration from rest to 3.0 rev/s in 2.5 seconds. (a) Through what angle does the turntable rotate between t = 0 and t = 1.8 s? b) For a dust particle sitting on the edge of the turntable, what is its centripetal acceleration at t = 2.0 s?
A car has a mass of 1723. kg and is going around a flat curve which has a coefficient of static friction between the tires and the pavement is 0.757. The maximum speed the car can have and still negotiate the turn is 37.8 m/s. What is the smallest radius of curvature for which the car can safely negotiate the curve under these conditions? Select one: a. 146. m b. 110.m C. 5.10 m Od. 193.m
You are designing a highway which will be safe even if there is no friction between the tires of the car and the road. A particular turn has a radius of curvature equal to 230 m, and you want the highway to be safe for cars travelling at 120 km/h. What angle must you bank the road at in order for cars to navigate the turn safely?
In this example, the friction force between a vehicle's tires and the road provides the radial acceleration. A car rounds a flat, unbanked curve with radius R. (a) If the coefficient of static friction between tires and road is µg, derive an expression for the maximum speed vmax at which the driver can take the curve without sliding. (b) What is the maximum speed if R 250 m and us 0.90? The centripetal force coming only from static tire friction R-
You have a horizontal grindstone (a disk) that is 95 kg, has a 0.36 m radius, is turning at 86 rpm (in the positive direction), and you press a steel axe against the edge with a force of 24 N in the radial direction. 1)Assuming that the kinetic coefficient of friction between steel and stone is 0.20, calculate the angular acceleration of the grindstone in rad/s2. 2)What is the number of turns, N, that the stone will make before coming to rest?
Astronauts in the International Space Station must work out every day to counteract the effects of weightlessness. Researchers have investigated if riding a stationary bicycle while experiencing artificial gravity from a rotating platform gives any additional cardiovascular benefit. What frequency of rotation, in rpm, is required to give an acceleration of 1.4g to an astronaut’s feet, if her feet are 1.1 m from the platform’s rotational axis?
Red blood cells can be separated from blood plasma using a centrifuge. This device spins the whole blood samples rapidly in a circular path and can generate forces many times that of gravity. The more dense material (red blood cells) accumulates at the outer end of the container while the less dense material (plasma) is closer to the centre of rotation. One “g” is the equivalent of 9.80 ms-2. How many “g”s is experienced by the material spinning in the centrifuge at a distance of 18.4 cm from the centre of rotation at 2,457 revolutions per minute?
Two children are riding on a merry- go- round. Child A is at a greater distance from the axis of rotation than child B. Which child has the larger tangential acceleration? O Child A Child B They have the same zero centripetal acceleration. They have the same non-zero centripetal acceleration. There is not enough information given to answer the question.

A 1500 kg car moving on a flat, horizontal road negotiates a curve. If the radius of the curve is 1600 m and coefficient of static friction between the tires and the road (µ,) is 0.1, what is the maximum speed (in m/s) the car can have and still make the turn successfully.

In 1959, Daytona Speed was added to the NASCAR racing circuit and introduced 31° banked curves for racing. This allowed stock cars to reach much higher speeds (around 200 mph) during a race. Today the steepest banked curves are found at Talladega Motor Speed Way at 33° with a turn radius of 1100 ft. The flattest track in NASCAR is Hew Hampshire Motor Speed Way with banked curves of 7° with a turn radius of 410 ft. a) Assuming no friction, what are the max speeds (in mph) without slipping toward the outer edge of the track at the Talladega and NH Motor Speedways? b) With friction (assume μs of 1.1 between the tires and the track)?
