A cup of hot chocolate is sitting on the dashboard of a car that is traveling at a constant velocity. The coefficient of static friction between the cup and the dashboard is 0.30. Suddenly, the car accelerates. What is the maximum acceleration that the car have without the cup sliding backward off the dashboard?

Amerry-go-round of radius r, shown in the figure, is rotating at constant angular speed. the friction in its bearings is so small that it can be ignored. a sandbag of mass m is dropped onto the merry-go-round, at a position designated by r. the sandbag does not slip or roll upon contact with the merry-go-round. how would you rank the following different combinations of m and r on the basis of the angular speed of the merry-go-round after the sandbag "sticks" to the merry-go-round from largest to smallest. a) m = 10kg, r = 0.25r b) m = 20kg, r = 0.25r c) m = 10kg, r = 0.50r d) m = 10kg, r = 1.0r e) m = 15kg, r = 0.75r f) m = 40kg, r = 0.25r

In this lab you will use a cart and track to explore various aspects of motion. you will measure and record the time it takes the cart to travel certain distances, and then complete some calculations. in the space below, write a scientific question that you will answer by doing this experiment.
