The force needed to keep a car from skidding on a curve varies jointly as theweight of the car and the square of the car’s speed and inversely as the radiusof the curve. if 126 lb of force keeps a 1200 lb car driving at 25 mph fromskidding on a curve of radius 400 ft, what force would keep the same car going45 mph from skidding on a curve of radius 650 ft?

F' = 251.2 lb

Explanation:

It is given that,

The force needed to keep a car from skidding on a curve varies jointly as the weight of the car and the square of the car’s speed and inversely as the radius of the curve. So,

W is the weight

v is the speed

r is the radius of curve

W is constant, So

If F = 126 lb, v = 25 mph and r = 400 ft

F' = ?, v' = 45 mph and r' = 650 ft

On solving above equation,

F' = 251.2 lb

So, 251.2 lb of force would keep the same car going 45 mph from skidding on a curve of radius 650 ft. Hence, this is the required solution.

the answer is the first electromagnet (a). this is because it has more coils around the ferromagnetic material. increasing the number of coils increases the surface area in which the metal interacts with the current in the coil. this enables more atoms in the metal to become aligned hence becoming more magnetized.
