The principles which allow aircraft to fly are also applicable in car racing. The only difference being the wing or airfoil shape is mounted upside down producing downforce instead of lift. The Bernoulli Effect means that: if a fluid (gas or liquid) flows around an object at different speeds, the slower moving fluid will exert more pressure than the faster moving fluid on the object. The object will then be forced toward the faster moving fluid. The wing of an airplane is shaped so that the air moving over the top of the wing moves faster than the air beneath it. Since the air pressure under the wing is greater than that above the wing, lift is produced. The shape of the Indy car exhibits the same principle. The shape of the chasis is similar to an upside down airfoil. The air moving under the car moves faster than that above it, creating downforce or negative lift on the car. Airfoils or wings are also used in the front and rear of the car in an effort to generate more downforce. Downforce is necessary in maintaining high speeds through the corners and forces the car to the track. Light planes can take off at slower speeds than a ground effects race car can generate on the track. An Indy ground effect race car can reach speeds in excess of 230 mph using downforce. In addition the shape of the underbody (an inverted wing) creates an area of low pressure between the bottom of the car and the racing surface. This sucks the car to road which results in higher cornering speeds.
The total aerodynamic package of the race car is emphasized now more than ever before. Teams that plan on staying competitive use track testing and wind tunnels to develop the most efficient aerodynamic design. The focus of their efforts is on the aerodynamic forces of negative lift or downforce and drag. The relationship between drag and downforce is especially important. Aerodynamic improvements in wings are directed at generating downforce on the race car with a minimum of drag. Downforce is necessary for maintaining speed through the corners. Unwanted drag which accompanies downforce will slow the car. The efficient design of a chassis is based on a downforce/drag compromise. In addition the specific race circuit will place a different demand on the aerodynamic setup of the car.
A road course with low speed corners, requires a car setup with a high downforce package. A high downforce package is necessary to maintain speeds in the corners and to reduce wear on the brakes. This setup includes large front and rear wings. The front wings have additional flaps which are adjustable. The rear wing is made up of three sections that maximize downforce.
The speedway setup looks much different. The front and rear wings are almost flat and are used as stabilizers. The major downforce is found in the shape of the body and underbody. Drag reduction is more critical on the speedway than on other circuits. Since the drag force is proportional to the square of the speed, minimizing drag is a primary concern in the speedway setup. Lap speeds can average over 228 mph and top speeds can exceed 240 mph on a speedway circuit. Effective use of downforce is especially pronounced in highspeed corners. A race car traveling at 200 mph. can generate downforce that is approximately twice its own weight.
Generating the necessary downforce is concentrated in three specific areas of the car. The ongoing challenge for team engineers is to fine tune the airflow around these areas.

what are the importance of gravitation
Answer:
Gravity is very important to us. We could not live on Earth without it. The sun's gravity keeps Earth in orbit around it, keeping us at a comfortable distance to enjoy the sun's light and warmth. It holds down our atmosphere and the air we need to breathe.
Answer:
Newton's universal law of gravitation explains the attractive force between any two objects which have mass.It explains how we are able to stand on earth, why a body thrown up falls to the ground, why planets revolve around the sun and why the moon revolves around the earth, and so on.This law says that as the distance between two objects increases their force of attraction decreases. This explains why we are not pulled towards a distant star even though it is more massive than the Earth.This law leads to the derivation of an expresion for the acceleration due to gravity...With the help of gravitation, we can understand the force experience by various planets , stars etc. with each other.This law makes us understand why the planets revolve around the sun and why satellite revolve around the planets.Gravitation explains us how the planets are held by the sun and why don't they fall on it.It can also explain how tides are formed on earth. (Tides are due to the gravitational forces of the sun and the moon).Example:
Astronauts reach a distant planet and find it takes eight times as much force to lift objects there than it does on Earth. What is the acceleration due to gravity on this planet?
On this planet the force of gravity is eight times larger. Since the masses of objects are a fundamental property of those objects, they cannot change, that means the value of g must be eight times larger as well:
[tex]8F_{grav}=m(8g)8F[/tex]
[tex]=m(8g)[/tex]
The value of g on Earth is 9.8 m/s2, so 8 × 9.8 m/s2 = 78.4 m/s2.
what volume of alcohol will have the same mass as 4.2m^3 of petrol? (density of alcohol 0.4kg/m^3 and petrol is 0.3kg/m^3)
Answer:
3.15m³
Explanation:
To solve this problem, let us first find the mass of the petrol from the given dimension.
Mass = density x volume
Volume of petrol = 4.2m³
Density of petrol = 0.3kgm⁻³
Mass of petrol = 4.2 x 0.3 = 1.26kg
So;
We can now find the volume of the alcohol
Volume of alcohol = [tex]\frac{mass}{density}[/tex]
Mass of alcohol = 1.26kg
Density of alcohol = 0.4kgm⁻³
Volume of alcohol = [tex]\frac{1.26}{0.4}[/tex] = 3.15m³

Test populations are studied. Population one is found to obey the differential equation dy1/da=o.2y1 and the population two obeys dy2/da = -0.3y2 , where t is the time in years? Which population is growing and which is declining
Answer:
Population 1 indicates growth while Population 2 indicates a declining population
Explanation:
Here, using the given rate of change of the population, we want to determine which of the two is growing and which is declining
From the rate of change of both, we can determine this. Looking at the differential equation for the first one, we can see that it is of positive value. Looking at the differential equation for the second one. we can see it is of negative value
While a positive change rate indicates growth, a negative change rate will indicate otherwise
Hence, we can conclude that the one with a negative rate change will indicate a declining population
Two resistors are used in an experiment. Resistor 1 had a resistance of 4 ohms and resistor 2 has a resistance of 2 ohms. Which resistor will have the bigger current flowing through it if the potential difference is constant
Answer:
2ohms resistor
Explanation:
According to ohms law
V= IR
V is the potential difference
I is the current
R is the resistance
Since they have the same potential difference, this shows that they are connected in parallel
Let assume V = 20V
For the 4ohms resistor
I = V/R
I = 20/4
I = 5A
For the two ohms resistor
I = V/R
I = 20/2
I = 10A
This shows that the 2ohms resistor will have the bigger current because the smaller the load, the bigger the current and vice versa

hockey puck slides across the ice with an initial velocity of 7.2 m/s. It has a deceleration of 1.1 m/s2 and is traveling toward the goal 5.0 m away. How much time does the goalie have to stop the puck?
For this use the formula:
d = Vo * t - (at^2) / 2
Clearing t:
t = d/(v + 0.5*a)
Replacing:
t = 5 m / (7.2 m/s + 0.5 * (-1.1 m/s²)
Resolving:
t = 5 m / (7.2 m/s + (-0.55 m/s²)
t = 5 m / 6.65 m/s
t = 0.75 s
Result:
The time will be 0.75 seconds.

you have boasted to your friends that you can ride your bicycle at 30 KPH (KM per Hour) over a 30KM race track comprising of two 15km laps. However, when you finish the first lap, your coach tells you that your average is only 15 KPH. How fast must you ride to bring your average speed to 30 kph.
Answer:
faster than 100 kph
Explanation:
Time taken to complete the first lap is
[tex]\dfrac{15\ \text{km}}{15\ \text{kph}}=1\ \text{hour}[/tex]
If the person's average speed is to be 30 kph then the complete race would be over in [tex]\dfrac{30}{30}=1\ \text{hour}[/tex]
But 1 hour has passed in the first lap already so, the next 15 km must be covered in 0 time.
So, the speed of the bike must be more than 100 kph.

Both speed and velocity measure how fast something is moving. However, since speed is not a _ it does not require an _
Answer:
vector
direction
Explanation:
Both speed and velocity measures how fast something is moving. Since speed is not a vector, it does not require direction to describe it.
Speed is the distance divided by the time taken. It is a scalar quantity in that it has only magnitude but no direction.
When describing speed, there is no need to specify its direction.
But when describing velocity, we specify both magnitude and direction.

the earth rotates once every 24 hrs. a person in north america is 4.88*10^6 m from the earth's axis. what is the person's linear speed?
Answer:
The linear speed is approximately 354.88361 m/s
Explanation:
The given parameters are;
The time it takes the Earth to make one complete rotation = 24 hrs.
The distance of the location of the person in North America from the axis, r = 4.88 × 10⁶ m
The rotation per 24 hours = 1 rev/(24 h)
24 hours = 24 hours ×60 minutes/hour × 60 seconds/minute = 86,400 seconds
Therefore, we have, the rotation rate per second, n = 1 rev/(86,400 s)
The angular speed, ω = 2·π·(1 rev/(86,400 s)) ≈ 7.2722052 × 10⁻⁵ rad/s
The linear speed, v = ω × r
Therefore, v ≈ 7.2722052 × 10⁻⁵ rad/s × 4.88 × 10⁶ m = 354.88361 m/s.
The linear speed, v ≈ 354.88361 m/s.
