<h3><u>Answer;</u></h3>

Kinetic energy

A car engine changes chemical potential energy into the <u>kinetic energy</u> of the moving car​.

<h3><u>Explanation;</u></h3>
  • A car engine converts potential chemical energy stored in gasoline into thermal energy and then into kinetic mechanical energy.
  • When gasoline undergoes combustion it reacts with oxygen to produce carbon dioxide and water vapor.Gasoline is a mixture of octane and similar hydrocarbons and contains potential chemical energy.
  • The hot exhaust gases from the combustion of gasoline that are produced within the cylinder expand and exert pressure, moving the piston in the cylinder outward then inward as the gas is exhausted. Kinetic mechanical energy of the moving pistons is transferred to the drive shaft and eventually to the wheels, giving the car kinetic mechanical energy.

A cyclist is riding a bicycle at a speed of 22 mph on a horizontal road. The distance between the axles is 42 in., and the mass
stealth61 [152]

Answer:

The shortest distance is  S = 24.86 ft

Explanation:

The free body diagram of this question is shown on the first uploaded image

From the question we are told that

   The speed of the bicycle is v_b = 22\ mph = 22 * \frac{5280}{3600}   =  32.26 ft/s

     The distance between the axial is  d = 42 \ in

The mass center of the cyclist and the bicycle is m_c = 26 \ in  behind the front axle

The mass center of the cyclist and the bicycle is m_h = 40 \ in above the ground

   For the bicycle not to be thrown over the

     Momentum about the back wheel must be zero so

                \sum _B = 0

=>             mg (26) = ma(40)

=>             a = \frac{26}{40} g

Here  g = 32.2 ft/s^2

     So     a =  \frac{26}{40} (32.2)

             a =  20.93 ft/s^2

Apply the equation of motion to this motion we have

       v^2 = u^2 + 2as

 Where  u = 32.26 ft /s

             and v = 0 since the bicycle is coming to a stop

        v^2 = (32.26)^2 - 2(20.93) S

=>      S = 24.86 ft

<span>The flywheel is solid cylindrical disc. Moment of inertial = ½ * mass * radius^2 Mass = 40.0 kg Radius = ½ * 76.0 cm = 38 cm = 0.38 meter Moment of inertial = ½ * 41 * 0.36^2 Convert rpm to radians/second The distance of 1 revolution = 1 circumference = 2 * π * r The number of radians/s in 1 revolution = 2 * π 1 minute = 60 seconds 1 revolution per minute = 2 * π radians / 60 seconds = π/30 rad/s Initial angular velocity = 500 * π/30 = 16.667 * π rad/s 170 revolutions = 170 * 2 * π = 340 * π radians The flywheel’s initial angular velocity = 16.667 * π rad/s. It decelerated at the rate of 1.071 rad/s^2 for 48.89 seconds. θ = ωi * t + ½ * α * t^2 θ = 16.667 * π * 48.89 + ½ * -1.071 * 48.89^2 2559.9 - 1280 θ = 1280 radians</span>
