Two bicycle tires are set rolling with the same initial speed of 3.30 m/s along a long, straight road, and the distance each tra

vels before its speed is reduced by half is measured. One tire is inflated to a pressure of 40 psi and goes a distance of 18.0 m ; the other is at 105 psi and goes a distance of 93.7 m . Assume that the net horizontal force is due to rolling friction only and take the free-fall acceleration to be g = 9.80 m/s2 .

Answer:

At low pressure- \mu_{k}=0.02315

At high pressure- \mu_{k}=0.00445

Explanation:

Initial speed, V_{i}=3.3 m/s

Final speed, V_{f}=3.3/2= 1.65 m/s

Net horizontal force due to rolling friction F_{net}=\mu_{k} mg where m is mass, g is acceleration due to gravity, \mu_{k} is coefficient of rolling friction

From kinematic relation, V_{f}^{2}- V_{i}^{2}=2ad

For each tire,

V_{f}^{2}- V_{i}^{2}=2\mu_{k}gd

Making \mu_{k} the subject

\mu_{k}=\frac {V_{f}^{2}- V_{i}^{2}}{2gd}

Under low pressure of 40 Psi, d=18 m

\mu_{k}=\frac {1.65^{2}- 3.3^{2}}{2*9.8*18}=-0.02315

Therefore, \mu_{k}=0.02315

At a pressure of 105 Psi, d=93.7

\mu_{k}=\frac {1.65^{2}- 3.3^{2}}{2*9.8*93.7}=-0.00445

Therefore, \mu_{k}=0.00445

Annette [7]

Answer:

82.7 kg

Explanation:

the mass of the boxer remains unchanged, this is because mass is a measure of the quantity of matter in an object irrespective of its location and the gravitational force acting at its location. this means mass is independent of the gravitational acceleration hence it remains the same 82.7 kg. its unit is in kilograms (Kg).

s344n2d4d5 [400]

Answer:

Explanation:

On both sides of the film , the mediums have lower refractive index.

for interfering pattern from above , for constructive interference of reflected wave from both sides of the film , the condition is

2μt = ( 2n +1 ) λ / 2

μ is refractive index of film ,t is thickness of film λ is wavelength of light

n is order of fringe

for minimum thickness

n = 0

2μt =  λ / 2

t =  λ / 4μ

= 670 / 1.75 x 4

= 95.71 nm .
