A cyclist starts from rest and coasts down a 4.0∘ hill. The mass of the cyclist plus bicycle is 85 kg. Ignore air resistance and

friction.
A) After the cyclist has traveled 180 m , what was the net work done by gravity on the cyclist?

B) How fast is the cyclist going? in m/s

A) change in ht after 180m = 180 * sin(4-deg.) = 12.56m

net work done by gravity on the cyclist = mass * gravity * height diff.

= 85 * 9.8 * 12.56

= 10470J

= 10.5kJ

B) Kinetic energy = 1/2 * mass * vel.^2 = work done by gravity = 10470J

vel.^2 = 10470 * 2 / 85 = 246.4

vel. = 15.7m/s

The equation shows neutralization of an acid and a base to produce a salt and water.
Lyrx [107]
This equation will be balanced if the x is a 2 because there are two sodiums on the reactants sides so there must be two sodiums on the products side

Hope this helps

How have moral and ethical issues influenced science
umka2103 [35]
Often times, moral and ethical issues could hindrance the development of science.
For example, the cloning technology has been hindranced by these type of issues since the beginning of its creation.
The moral and ethical aspect of society somehow oppose the technology because they feel that the sicentists are 'playing God' and doing something that humans are not suppose to be doing, even though there might be overwhelming benefits from the technology.

Atomic radius<br><br>moving from left to right across a period,<br>​
Ilya [14]

Answer:

Atomic radius decreases moving from left to right across a period.

Explanation:

When we move left to right across a period, the size of atoms generally decreases. It is because within the period the outer electrons are in same valence shell and the number of electrons and proton increases moving from left to right across the the period. It increases the effective nuclear charge resulting in the increased attraction of electron to the nucleus that causes the decreased radius of the atoms.

Non examples of gravity ?
Afina-wow [57]
Floating. When you have no gravity you have nothing to be pushing you down to the floor so that would be an example of no gravity pushing on you.
