If a car takes a banked curve at less than the ideal speed, friction is needed to keep it from sliding toward the inside of the curve (a real problem on icy mountain roads). (a) Calculate the ideal speed in (m/s) to take a 110 m radius curve banked at 15°. 16.99 Correct: Your answer is correct. m/s

ideal speed(v)≅17m/s

Explanation:

Given: Radius, r = 110 m

Angle(α) = 15°

g=9.81m/

Find; (a) The ideal speed, v.

tanα=

make V subject of the formula;

v=

v=

v=

v≅17m/s

given data:

determine the horse power (h.p) = ?

force applied to move the box(f) = 10 pounds,

box lifted from a distance         (d) = 3 feet

time taken to lift                         (t) = 10 sec,

the horse power is defined as amount of work required to move a load. the horse power is equal to 550 foot-pound per second

                  1 h.p   = 550 foot-pound/second

it can also be defined as the the load that need to be move a body for certain distance in a certain amount of time.

mathematically,

                      h.p = (force × distance)/ time

                            = (10 × 3)/ 10

                            = 30/10

                            = 3 foot -pound/sec

hence, the horse power is needed to move the box is 3 foot-pound/second

important note: 1 h.p = 550 foot-pound/second = 746 watts

answer: strength i guess
