A bicycle rider has a speed of 19.0 m/s at a height of 55.0 m above sea level when he begins coasting down hill. The mass of the
lukranit [14]

Answer:

The mechanical energy of the rider at any height will be 6.34 × 10⁴ J.

Explanation:

Hi there!

The mechanical energy of the rider is calculated as the sum of the gravitational potential energy plus the kinetic energy. Since there are no dissipative forces (like friction), the mechanical energy of the rider at a height of 55.0 m above the sea level will be the same at a height of 25.0 m (or at any height), because the loss in potential energy will be compensated by a gain in kinetic energy, according to the law of conservation of energy.

Then, calculating the potential and kinetic energy at 55.0 m and 19 m/s, we can obtain the mechanical energy that will be constant:

Mechanical energy = PE + KE

Where:

PE = potential energy.

KE = kinetic energy.

The potential energy is calculated as follows:

PE = m · g · h

Where:

m = mass of the object.

g = acceleration due to gravity.

h = height.

Then, the potential energy of the rider will be:

PE = 88.0 kg · 9.81 m/s² · 55.0 m = 4.75 × 10⁴ J

The kinetic energy is calculated as follows:

KE = 1/2 · m · v²

Where "m" is the mass of the object and "v" its velocity. Then:

KE = 1/2 · 88.0 kg · (19.0 m/s)²

KE = 1.59 × 10⁴ J

The mechanical energy of the rider will be:

Mechanical energy = PE + KE = 4.75 × 10⁴ J + 1.59 × 10⁴ J = 6.34 × 10⁴ J

This mechanical energy is constant because when the rider coast down the hill, its potential energy is being converted into kinetic energy, so that the sum of potential energy plus kinetic energy remains constant.

Which evidence supports the big band theory select 3 options
ruslelena [56]

Answer:

Explanation:

There are different theories and evidence about the big bang, in this case, we're going to see three evidence.

The galaxies are moving from us, this means space is expanded, this in consequence Big Bang's explosion.

The cosmic microwave background radiation is related to the early warmth of the universe.

The observed abundance of hydrogen, helium, deuterium, lithium, these are checked from the spectra of the oldest stars.

A 4,000 kg boat floats with one-third of its volume submerged. if two more people get into the boat, each of whom weighs 690 n,
AveGali [126]

 

The weightiness of the added water displaced is equivalent to the joined weight of the two extra people who come to be into the boat:


<span>m water g                   = 2 x 690 N</span>

<span>                                   = 1,380 N</span>

<span>
</span>

The mass of the water displace is then


<span>m water g                   = 1,380 N</span>

<span>                                   = 1,380 N / 9.8 m/s^2</span>

<span>                                   = 141 kg</span>

<span>
</span>

Compute the calculation for density for the volume of water displace and practice this outcome for the mass of the water displace to get the answer:


<span>p water                      = mass of water / volume of water</span>

<span>
</span>

<span>volume of water        = mass of water / p water</span>

<span>                                  = 141 kg / 1000 kg /m^3 eliminate kilogram</span>

<span>                                  = 0.14 m^3 the additional volume of water that is displaced</span>
