Calculate the gravitational potential energy is a bicycle of mass 20kg and its rider of mass 50kg cycle to the top of a hill 120
1 answer:
Explanation:
Gravitational Potential Energy can be calculated with the following formula:
Where m is mass, g is Gravitational Field Strength, and h is height. GFS on Earth is always 9.81, the combined mass of the cyclist and the bicycle is 70, and the height is 120. Multiplying these values together, we get:
82,404J.

To solve the problem it is necessary to use the concepts related to the calculation of periods by means of a spring constant.
We know that by Hooke's law
Where,
k = Spring constant
x = Displacement
Re-arrange to find k,
Perioricity in an elastic body is defined by
Where,
m = Mass
k = Spring constant
Therefore the period of the oscillations is 0.685s
