One of the 3. Two athlete's run clockwise on a circular track at constant (although different)...
The inner lane of a circular track has a radius of 136 m. The outer lane of the track has a radius of 146m. Runner 1 runs in the inner lane of the track and runner 2 runs in the outer lane. If the two runners have the same angular speed as they run, which of the following statements must be correct? The linear speed of runner 1 must be less than that of runner 2. The linear speed of...
4. Two cars travel around a circular track, one on an inner lane of radius 12.0 m, and one on an outer lane of radius 16.0 m. The cars initially have the same speed of 15.0 m/s. (a) What are the centripetal accelerations of the two cars initially? (b) What speed would the car in the outer lane need so that it would complete one full loop in the same time as the car in the inner lane? (c) If...
