In order to get the bike to move and stay moving, what friction must be overcome

Physics

jolli1 [7]3 years ago
4 0

Friction is the resistance offered against the motion of one surface over the other. This is because, at the microscopic level, each surface has hills and valleys i.e. the surfaces are not completely smooth and hence the roughness of one surface locks over the other and restricts its motion. There are two kinds of friction: static friction and kinetic friction. When the object is at rest, static friction acts. While the object is in motion, kinetic friction acts. Static friction is greater than the kinetic friction because a larger force is required to change the state of rest to motion. You must have experienced that if you do not accelerate the bike while its in motion, it would slow down and eventually stop. In order to get the bike moving, initially static friction must be overcome and thereafter, kinetic friction to make it stay in motion.

For a spring oscillating in simple harmonic motion, at what point will the velocity of
Crazy boy [7]

Answer:

equilibrium position.

Explanation:

In simple harmonic motion , velocity v(t) is given by,

v(t) = -ω A sin(ωt + φ)

where

ω = angular velocity of the corresponding circular motion

A = amplitude

t = time

φ = the initial angle of the corresponding circular motion when the motion begin.

v (t) get maximized when sin value is maximized , i.e. sin \alpha=1

The particle has maximum speed when it passes through the equilibrium position.

Rocks A and B are located at the same height on top of a hill. The mass of rock A is twice the mass of rock B. How does the pote
Ronch [10]

Potential energy is defined by formula

U = mgh

here

m = mass

g = acceleration due to gravity

h = height

Now here two different stones are located at same height

while mass of stone A is twice that of stone B

so here we can say potential energy of A is

U_a = (2m)gh

Similarly potential energy of B is

U_b = mgh

now if we take the ratio of two energy

\frac{U_a}{U_b} = 2

so we can say potential energy of stone A is two times the potential energy of B

We intend to observe two distant equal brightness stars whose angular separation is 50.0 × 10-7 rad. Assuming a mean wavelength
san4es73 [151]

Answer:

13.4cm

Explanation:

According to Rayleigh’s criterion the angular resolution to distinguish two objects is given by:

\theta=1.22\frac{\lambda}{b}

θ = 50.0*10^-7 rad

λ: wavelength of the light = 550nm

b = diameter of the objective

By doing b the subject of the formula and replacing the values of the angle and wavelength you obtain:

b=1.22\frac{\lambda}{\theta}=1.22\frac{550*10^{-9}m}{50.0*10^{-7}rad}=0.134m=13.4cm

hence, the smallest diameter objective lens is 13.4cm

On a cross-country trip, a couple drives 500 mi in 10 h on the first day, 380 mi in 8.0 h on the second day, and 600 mi in 15 h
Zepler [3.9K]

We know that the average speed is simply the ratio of the total distance travelled over the total duration of the trip.

total distance = 500 mi + 380 mi + 600 mi

total distance = 1,480 mi

 

total time = 10 h + 8 h + 15 h

total time = 33 h

 

So the average speed is therefore:

average speed = 1,480 mi / 33 h

<span>average speed = 44.85 mi / h</span>

Consider the following cyclic process carried out in two steps on a gas. Step 1: 44 J of heat is added to the gas, and 20. J of
notka56 [123]

Answer:37 J

Explanation:

Given

Step :1

Heat added Q=44 J

Work done=-20 J

\Delta E_1=Q+W=44-20=24 J

Step :2

Heat added Q=-61 J

work done W_2

\Delta E_2=Q+W_2

\Delta E_2=61+W_2

\Delta E_1+\Delta E_2=0

as the process is cyclic

44-20-61+W_2=0

W_2=37 J

work done in compression is 37 J
