A SUV is moving away from you and negotiating a horizontal turn in the road as. The radius of the turn is 16 m and its center is on the right, indicated in the figure. The vehicle's center of gravity (cg) is h = 0.94 m above the ground and located midway between the wheels. The separation betwen the wheels is d = 1.7 m. What is the greatest speed at which the SUV can negotiate the turn without rolling over? [Hint: At the instant just before the SUV begins to roll over toward the outside of the turn, which is on the left side, the wheels on the right side have just lost contact with the ground.] There is no figure included

Dr. C. #2. (PHYS 121 engineering design exercise) You have seen why cars inherently accelerate quicker in a straight line and have better fuel mileage than an SUV with the same engine; it's because of air drag and the smaller frontal area and better drag coefficient of the car. Now let's think about why cars handle (take turns, change lanes and make other quick maneuvers) better than an SUV. We'l1 simplify our analysis by considering a vehicle of mass M...
Physics 120 Worksheet 9- Moment of Inertia and Statics Problem 4. Analyzing Torque- You take the wheel from Problem 3 and drill a tiny hole through the center of the x so you carn mount the wheel in an axle. Now you tie three different pieces of string to the wheel and apply the three tension forces of IN to the wheel. Fri is applied to the top of the wheel and points left. Frz is applied to the bottom...
How can we assess whether a project is a success or a failure? This case presents two phases of a large business transformation project involving the implementation of an ERP system with the aim of creating an integrated company. The case illustrates some of the challenges associated with integration. It also presents the obstacles facing companies that undertake projects involving large information technology projects. Bombardier and Its Environment Joseph-Armand Bombardier was 15 years old when he built his first snowmobile...
