The correct Answer is:
To determine the angular momentum of a car moving in a circular track, we can use the formula for angular momentum (L) given by: \[ L = m \cdot v \cdot r \] where: - \( L \) is the angular momentum, - \( m \) is the mass of the car, - \( v \) is the linear velocity of the car, - \( r \) is the radius of the circular path. ### Step-by-step Solution: 1. **Identify the given values:** - Mass of the car, \( m = 1500 \, \text{kg} \) - Speed of the car, \( v = 40 \, \text{m/s} \) - Radius of the circular track, \( r = 50 \, \text{m} \) 2. **Substitute the values into the angular momentum formula:** \[ L = m \cdot v \cdot r \] \[ L = 1500 \, \text{kg} \cdot 40 \, \text{m/s} \cdot 50 \, \text{m} \] 3. **Calculate the product:** - First, calculate \( 1500 \cdot 40 \): \[ 1500 \cdot 40 = 60000 \, \text{kg m/s} \] - Now multiply this result by the radius \( 50 \): \[ L = 60000 \, \text{kg m/s} \cdot 50 \, \text{m} = 3000000 \, \text{kg m}^2/\text{s} \] 4. **Express the final answer in scientific notation:** \[ L = 3 \times 10^6 \, \text{kg m}^2/\text{s} \] ### Final Answer: The angular momentum of the car is \( 3 \times 10^6 \, \text{kg m}^2/\text{s} \). ---
