Question 1 (20 points) A 1,000.0 kg-car is traveling on a straight, unbanked, dry asphalt-road. The driver approaches a turn and
turns the car to the left into a circular path. The driver continues to keep the car in a circular path for
some time. From a bird's-eye view, the diameter of this circular path is 300.0 feet.

a) What requirements are necessary for the car to travel with uniform circular motion? Explain.

b) A passenger in the car feels as though they are being pushed out. Describe what type of force this is.

c) Calculate the maximum velocity that the car can safely travel so that there is no slippage between
the rubber tires and the road as the driver navigates this circular path.

d) Would it be possible to slope the road such that there is less reliance on the friction between the tires
and the road? Explain.

e) If the car is now traveling along in a circular path on a sloped road, determine the angle of slope
necessary so that the requirement of part d is met. Make sure to sketch a free-body diagram of the
car and show all calculations.

f) If an external force, such as a collision with another vehicle is present, is the car still moving with
uniform circular motion? Explain.

The frequency of vibrations of a vibrating violin string is given by f = 1 2l t ρ where l is the length of the string, t is its tension, and ρ is its linear density.† (a) find the rate of change of the frequency with respect to the following. (i) the length (when t and ρ are constant) (ii) the tension (when l and ρ are constant) (iii) the linear density (when l and t are constant) (b) the pitch of a note (how high or low the note sounds) is determined by the frequency f. (the higher the frequency, the higher the pitch.) use the signs of the derivatives in part (a) to determine what happens to the pitch of a note for the following. (i) when the effective length of a string is decreased by placing a finger on the string so a shorter portion of the string vibrates df dl 0 and l is ⇒ f is ⇒ (ii) when the tension is increased by turning a tuning peg df dt 0 and t is ⇒ f is ⇒ (iii) when the linear density is increased by switching to another string df dρ 0 and ρ is ⇒ f is ⇒

Global warming will produce rising sea levels partly due to melting ice caps but also due to the expansion of water as average ocean temperatures rise. to get some idea of the size of this effect, calculate the change in length (in m) of a column of water 1.45 km high for a temperature increase of 1.12°c. assume the column is not free to expand sideways. as a model of the ocean, that is a reasonable approximation, as only parts of the ocean very close to
