a. The centripetal acceleration of the car is equal to 3.125 m/s^2

b. The force that maintains centripetal acceleration is equal to 1400 kilograms.

c. The minimum coefficient of static friction between the car tires and road is equal to 0.31.

Given the following data:

Weight of car = 14000 Newton.Velocity of car = 25 m/s.Radius of curve = 200 meters.

Scientific data:

Acceleration due to gravity = 10 m/s^2

a. To determine the centripetal acceleration of the car:

Mathematically, the centripetal acceleration of an object is given by the formula:

$A_c = \frac{V^2}{r}$

Where;

is the centripetal acceleration.r is the radius of the circular track.V is the velocity of an object.

Substituting the given parameters into the formula, we have;

$A_c = \frac{25^2}{200}\\\\A_c = \frac{625}{200}\\\\A_c = 3.125 \;m/s^2$

b. To determine the force that maintains centripetal acceleration:

First of all, we would find the mass of the car.

$Weight = mg\\\\14000 = mass \times 10\\\\Mass =\frac{14000}{10}$

Mass = 1400 kilograms.

Note: The force that maintains centripetal acceleration is a centripetal force.

Mathematically, centripetal force is given by the formula:

$F_c = \frac{mv^2}{r}\\\\F_c = \frac{1400 \times 25^2}{200}\\\\F_c = \frac{1400 \times 625}{200}\\\\F_c = 4375\; Newton$

c. To determine the minimum coefficient of static friction between the car tires and road:

$F_c = uF_N\\\\F_c = umg\\\\4375=u(1400\times10)\\\\4375=14000u\\\\u=\frac{4375}{14000}$

Minimum coefficient of static friction = 0.31

Answer from: carmenala2

Explanation:

Given

Weight of car $W=14,000\ N$

mass of car $m=\frac{14,000}{9.8}=1428.57\ N$

velocity of car $v=25\ m/s$

radius $r=200\ m$

(a)Centripetal acceleration is given by

$a_c=\frac{v^2}{r}$

$a_c=\frac{25^2}{200}$

$a_c=3.125\ m$

(b)Force that provide centripetal acceleration

$F=F_c=\frac{mv^2}{r}$

$F=\frac{1428.57\times 25^2}{200}$

$F=4464.285\ N$

(c)Friction force between car and tires is given by

$=\mu N$

where $\mu$ =coefficient of static friction

N=normal reaction

Centripetal force will balance the friction force

F_c=F_r

$4464.285=\mu \times 1428.57\times 9.8$

$\mu =0.318$

they should be similar or the same

Answer from: Quest

the working equation for the angular size is the product of the physical size and 360 degrees divided by the product of two pi and distance from earth. the minimum size would be 0.559 degrees while the maximum size would be 0.49 degrees.
