A 12-lb block moves from the conveyor belt to a table by travelling around a smooth, semicircular track of 10-ft radius. (a) Determine the speed required on the conveyor to ensure that the block stays on the semicircular track and makes it to the table. (b) Determine the distance that the block moves along the length of the table. The coefficient of kinetic friction between the block and the table is 0.2.
If the speed at x = 1, v(r = 1) = 3 m/s then the speed at x = 0, v(x=0)
is:
AT an accident scene on a level road, investigators measure a car's slid mark to be 78 m long. It was a rainy day and the coefficient of friction was estimated to be .30. (a) Use these data to determine the speed of the car when the driver slammed on (and locked) the brakes. (b) Why does the car's mass not matter? (c) What is wrong with a car that skids?
