Explain why the brakes of a car get much hotter than the brakes of a bicycle?

1 answer:

8 0

Answer: Car brakes produces more energy then the bicycle because the cars wheels produces a much bigger force that makes the car go and to stop that force the car uses greater amount of energy that transfers to heat but in a bicycle the wheels do not turn that fast so when you press the break there is less energy that transfer to heat.

A golfer hits her tee-shot due north towards the fairway. Her shot has an initial velocity of 60 m/s. A 15 m/s wind is blowing i

vovangra [49]

Answer:

$c=71.4m/s$

$\theta=8.54\textdegree$

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

Initial velocity of 60 m/s

Wind speed $V_w= 15 m/s \angle 45 \textdegree$

Generally Resolving vector mathematically

$sin(45\textdegree)15=10.6\\cos(45\textdegree)15=10.6$

Generally the equation Pythagoras theorem is given mathematically by

$c^2=a^2+b^2$

$c^2=10.6^2 +(10.6+60)^2$

$c=\sqrt{10.6^2 +(10.6+60)^2}$

Therefore Resultant velocity (m/s)

$c=71.4m/s$

b)Resultant direction

Generally the equation for solving Resultant direction

$\theta=tan^-1(\frac{y}{x})$

Therefore

$\theta=tan^-1(\frac{10.6}{70.6})$

$\theta=8.54\textdegree$

A tank has the shape of an inverted circular cone with height 16m and base radius 3m. The tank is filled with water to a height

rewona [7]

Answer:

$W=17085KJ$

Explanation:

From the question we are told that:

Height $H=16m$

Radius $R=3$

Height of water $H_w=9m$

Gravity $g=9.8m/s$

Density of water $\rho=1000kg/m^3$

Generally the equation for Volume of water is mathematically given by

$dv=\pi*r^2dy$

$dv=\frac{\piR^2}{H^2}(H-y)^2dy$

Where

y is a random height taken to define dv

Generally the equation for Work done to pump water is mathematically given by

$dw=(pdv)g (H-y)$

Substituting dv

$dw=(p(=\frac{\piR^2}{H^2}(H-y)^2dy))g (H-y)$

$dw=\frac{\rho*g*R^2}{H^2}(H-y)^3dy$

Therefore

$W=\int dw$

$W=\int(\frac{\rho*g*R^2}{H^2}(H-y)^3)dy$

$W=\rho*g*R^2}{H^2}\int((H-y)^3)dy)$

$W=\frac{1000*9.8*3.142*3^2}{9^2}[((9-y)^3)}^9_0$

$W=3420.84*0.25[2401-65536]$

$W=17084965.5J$

$W=17085KJ$

A bulldozer and a Mini Cooper are involved in a head-on collision. Which one experiences a greater force

Pepsi [2]

Answer:

The mini Cooper will experience the greater force

Explanation:

Generally, a bulldozer has a greater mass compared to a Mini Cooper hence when both of these vehicles interact in an head on collision the Mini Cooper will experience a greater force because the bulldozer has a greater momentum
