Answer:

The centripetal force on the bicyclists is 215.2 N.

Explanation:

Given that,

Mass of bicyclist = 85 kg

Speed = 4.5 m/s

Radius = 8 m

We need to calculate the centripetal force

Using formula of centripetal force

F_{ac}=\dfrac{mv^2}{r}

Where, m = mass

v = velocity

r = radius

Put the value into the formula

F_{ac}=\dfrac{85\times4.5^2}{8}

F_{ac}=215.2\ N

Hence, The centripetal force on the bicyclists is 215.2 N.

F=m*(v^2/r)
F=85*(4.5^2/8)
F=215.2N

seropon [69]

Answer: Option B. R = (1/2)gt^2

Explanation:

S = R (horizontal distance)

V^2 = 2gS

V^2 = 2gR

R = V^2 / 2g

But V = gt

R = (gt)^2 / 2g

R = (g^2 x t^2) / 2g

R = gt^2 / 2

But t^2 = 2h/g

R = ( g x 2h/g) / 2

R = h

But h = (1/2)gt^2

R = h = (1/2)gt^2

How do scientists know the continents were once closer than they are today? Explain your answer in 2-3 complete sentences.
WITCHER [35]

Answer:

Continental drift describes one of the earliest ways geologists thought continents moved over time. Today, the theory of continental drift has been replaced by the science of plate tectonics. 

 

The theory of continental drift is most associated with the scientist Alfred Wegener. In the early 20th century, Wegener published a paper explaining his theory that the continental landmasses were “drifting” across the Earth, sometimes plowing through oceans and into each other. He called this movement continental drift.
