A racetrack has the shape of an inverted cone, as the drawing shows. On this surface the cars race in circles that are parallel to the ground, and the surface is at an angle θ = 40°. For a speed of 23 m/s, at what value of the distance d should a driver locate his car if he wishes to stay on a circular path without depending on friction?

7. (30 pts) An open cut uranium mine is excavated in the shape of an inverted frustrum of a right circular cone (ignoring the berms). See the figure below. The volume of this shape is equal to 2 The slope of the pit is 1 (45°). At ground level the radius of the cut is 120 m. At a depth of 15 m, a vein of uranium ore starts. The average ore density is 3.2 g/cm3. Excavation of the uranium...
A civil engineer wishes to redesign the curved roadway in the figure in such a way that a car will not have to rely on friction to round the curve without skidding. In other words, a car moving at the designated speed can negotiate the curve even when the road is covered with ice. Such a ramp is usually banked, which means that the roadway is tilted toward the inside of the curve. Suppose the designated speed for the road...
Linear Momentum of an object is conserved At all times b. Only when the net external force on the object is Zero When the net external torque on the object is Zero d. Never A truck of mass 4000 (kg) is moving at 10 (m/s). A car of mass 1000 (kg) is moving at 40 (m/s). So, the truck’s momentum, compared to the car, is Greater b. Smaller c. the same d. Cannot say without knowing their accelerations A 1000...
