Answer:

The bicycle will slow down (or even stop, depending on the size of the force applied)

Explanation:

The cyclist is travelling north at a constant speed (because the question says there is no net force acting on him). The new force is against the direction of travel so will decelerate (slow down) the cyclist because Force, mass and acceleration are linked by the formula Force = mass x accerelation

notka56 [123]

Answer:

The ball thrown downward

Explanation:

When the ball is thrown vertically, the acceleration of it is the gravity acceleration independent if it is thrown downward or upward. However, the acceleration is a vector, so, when the ball is thrown upward, the movement is against the gravity, so the acceleration is negative, and so, the velocity decreases during time; and when the ball is thrown downward, the movement goes to the gravity, so the acceleration is positive, so the velocity increase after time passes.

The orbits of ____ lie closer to the sun than does earth's orbit.
Eva8 [605]

Answer:

Mercury and Venus lie closer to Sun than position of Earth

Explanation:

As we know that all planets around the sun in the range of their distance can be arranged as following:

1). Mercury.

2). Venus.

3). Earth.

4). Mars.

5). Jupiter.

6). Saturn.

7). Uranus.

8). Neptune.

Since Earth lie at 3rd position from sun so two closer planets are Mercury and Venus

Freight trains can produce only relatively small acceleration and decelerations. (a) what is the final velocity (in m/s) of a fr
m_a_m_a [10]
(a) We will use the equation v = u + at
Initial velocity u = 5.00 m/s 
Acceleration a = 0.0600 m/s² 
time = 8 min = 8 x 60 = 480 s 
Final velocity 
= u + at 
= 5.00 + 0.0600(480) 
= 33.8 m/s

The final velocity is 33.8 m/s

A biker goes out for a ride and begins riding North at 18 km/h for 200 minutes, then the driver turns around and rides at 12 km/
Juliette [100K]

Answer:

Explanation:

18 km / h

= 300 m / min

12 km / h = 200 m / min

distance travelled in 200 minutes = 300 x 200 = 60000 m

distance travelled in 50 minute in return journey = 200 x 50 = 10000 m

total distance travelled = 70000 m

total time = 250 minute

speed = 70000 / 250

= 280 m / min

= 16.8 km / h

Total displacement = 60000 - 10000 = 50000 m

total time = 250 min

velocity = 50000 / 250

= 200 m / min

= 12 km / h
