A bike rider approaches a hill with a speed of 8.5 m/s. The total mass of the bike rider is 91kg. What is the kinetic energy of

the bike and the rider just before riding up the hill? if the rider just coasts up the hill, at what height will the bike come to a stop?(neglect friction)

a) The kinetic energy (KE) of an object is expressed as the product of half of the mass (m) of the object and the square of its velocity (v²):

KE = \frac{1}{2}m* v^{2}

It is given:

v = 8.5 m/s

m = 91 kg

So:

KE= \frac{1}{2}*91*8.5^{2} =3,287.4J


b) We can calculate height by using the formula for potential energy (PE):
PE = m*g*h

In this case, h is eight, and PE is the same as KE:
PE = KE = 3,287.4 J

m = 91 kg

g = 9.81 m/s² - gravitational acceleration

h = ? - height


Now, let's replace those:

3,287.4= 91 * 9.81 * h

⇒ h = 3,287.4/(91*9.81) = 3,287.4/892.7 = 3.7 m

During a rainy day, as a result of colliding clouds an observer saw lighting and a heard thunder sound. The time between seeing
hodyreva [135]

Answer:

d = 1700 meters

Explanation:

During a rainy day, as a result of colliding clouds an observer saw lighting and a heard thunder sound.  The time between seeing the lighting and hearing the sound was 5 second, t = 5 seconds

Speed of sound, v = 340 m/s (say)

Let d is the distance of the colliding cloud from the observer. The distance covered by the object. It is given by :

d=v\times t

d=340\ m/s\times 5\ s  

d = 1700 meters

So, the distance of the colliding cloud from the observer is 1700 meters. Hence, this is the required solution.

a hammer drops from a height of 8 meters. calculate the speed with which it hits the ground. show work
ioda

Answer:

12.5 m/s

Explanation:

The motion of the hammer is a free fall motion, so a uniformly accelerated motion, therefore we can use the following suvat equation:

v^2-u^2=2as

Where, taking downward as positive direction, we have:

s = 8 m is the displacement of the hammer

u = 0 is the initial velocity (it is dropped from rest)

v is the final velocity

a=g=9.8 m/s^2 is the acceleration of gravity

Solving the equation for v, we find the final velocity:

v=\sqrt{u^2+2as}=\sqrt{0+2(9.8)(8)}=12.5 m/s

So, the final speed is 12.5 m/s.
