It was estimated, according to the United States Energy Information Administration, that the United States still consumes almost 91% of non-renewable resources as its energy source. In addition, 32 % of it are natural gas, 28 % for petroleum and crude oil, and 21 % for coal power.
The centripetal force, Fc, is calculated through the equation,
Fc = mv²/r
where m is the mass,v is the velocity, and r is the radius.
Substituting the known values,
Fc = (112 kg)(8.9 m/s)² / (15.5 m)
= 572.36 N
Therefore, the centripetal force of the bicyclist is approximately 572.36 N.
The first rule of vectors is that the horizontal and vertical components are separate. Disregarding air resistance, the only thing we have to worry about is gravity.
The appropriate suvat to use for the vertical component is v = u +at
I will take a to be -9.81, you may have to change it to be 10 if your qualification likes g to be 10.
v = 30 + (-9.81x2)
v = 30 - 19.62
=10.38m/s
Therefore we know that after 2.0 s the vertical component will be 10.38ms^-1, ie 10m/s as the answers given are all to 2sf.
The horizontal component is completely separate to the vertical component and since there is no air resistance, it will remain constant throughout the projectiles trajectory. Therefore it will remain at 40ms^-1.
Combining this together we get:
(1) vx=40m/s and vy=10m/s
<h2>
The answer got is reasonable.</h2>
Explanation:
We have equation of motion v² = u² + 2as
Initial velocity, u = 300 m/s
Acceleration, a = ?
Final velocity, v = 400 m/s
Displacement,s = 4 km = 4000 m
Substituting
v² = u² + 2as
400² = 300² + 2 x a x 4000
a = 8.75 m/s² = 8.8 m/s²
The acceleration is 8.8 m/s²
The answer got is reasonable.
