imagine riding a single-speed bicycle. why do you have to push harders on the pedals to start the bicycle moving than to keep it

moving at constant velocity ?

A large force is required to accelerate the mass of the bicycle and rider. Once the desired constant velocity is reached, a much smaller force is sufficient to overcome the ever-present frictional forces.

2.1 Define Resultant vector​
lord [1]

Explanation:

In vector geometry, the resultant vector is defined as: “A resultant vector is a combination or, in simpler words, can be defined as the sum of two or more vectors which has its own magnitude and direction.”

I hope it's helpful!

Describe the three major layers of the earth including temperature thickness of chemical composition
Elena L [17]
The three main layers are the core, the mantle, and the crust. The core is divided into two parts, the liquid outer core, and the solid inner core. Together it is 3450 km thick. The mantle is 2100 km thick, and the crust is 35-70 km thick. Hope I helped!

The two pucks of equal mass did not move linearly (they came to a stop) after the collision due to the conservation of linear mo
weeeeeb [17]

Compared to the pucks given, the pair of pucks will rotate at the same rate.

Answer: Option A

<u>Explanation:</u>

The law of conservation of the angular momentum expresses that when no outer torque follows upon an article, no difference in angular momentum will happen.  At the point when an item is turning in a shut framework and no outside torques are applied to it, it will have no change in angular momentum.

The conservation of the angular momentum clarifies the angular quickening of an ice skater as she brings her arms and legs near the vertical rotate of revolution.  In the event, that the net torque is zero, at that point angular momentum is steady or saved.  

By twice the mass yet keeping the speeds unaltered, also twice the angular momentum's to the two-puck framework.  Be that as it may, we likewise double the moment of inertia. Since L=I \times \omega, the turning rate of the two-puck framework must stay unaltered.

You are throwing a stone straight-up in the absence of air friction. The stone is caught at the same height from which it was th
balu736 [363]

Answer:

A. True

Explanation:

When a stone is thrown straight-up, it has an initial velocity which decreases gradually as the stone move to maximum height due to constant acceleration due to gravity acting downward on the stone, at the maximum height the final velocity of the stone is zero. As the stone descends the velocity starts to increase and becomes maximum  before it hits the ground.

Height of the motion is given by;

H = \frac{u^2}{2g}

g is acceleration due to gravity which is constant

H is height traveled

u is the speed of throw, which determines the value of height traveled.

Therefore, when the stone is caught at the same height from which it was thrown in the absence of air resistance, the speed of the stone when thrown will be equal to the speed when caught.
