Answer:

Explanation:
In this case the kinetic energy of the bike is converted into the heat energy between the area of contact of tyre and the road. This happens due to the work done by the frictional force between the surface to stop the relative motion between the road and the tyre.
Given:
- normal force on the rear tyre,

(as given in the question that the rear tyre supports half the combined weight of the bike and the rider.)
- distance dragged while stopping the tyre,

- coefficient of kinetic friction between the surfaces,

<u>Now, frictional force between the surfaces:</u>



<u>Now, the work done by the kinetic friction:</u>



According to the energy conservation this amount of energy is converted into thermal energy between the surfaces in contact, i.e. road and the tyre.
Answer:
No.
Explanation:
- According to Faraday's law, the induced emf in the circuit is given by :
, it is proportional to the rate of change of magnetic flux.
- In this case, a short piece of wire that is not attached to anything and move it up and down in a magnetic field. It means that the circuit is not completed here. It is an open circuit. For the induction of current, a circuit must be completed.
- Hence, no current will induce.
Drag is usually ignored because its effect on the horizontal velocity is usually negligible due to the short time of flight.
An object's surface area and geometry, along with the object's surrounding wind speed will affect the drag force.
In most cases, drag force will cause the object to land horizontally closer to the predicted landing point as drag is a resistive force.
