A 60kg bicyclist (including the bicycle) is pedaling to the
Fittoniya [83]

a) 4 forces

b) 186 N

c) 246 N

Explanation:

a)

Let's count the forces acting on the bicylist:

1) Weight (W=mg): this is the gravitational force exerted on the bicyclist by the Earth, which pulls the bicyclist towards the Earth's centre; so, this force acts downward (m = mass of the bicyclist, g = acceleration due to gravity)

2) Normal reaction (N): this is the reaction force exerted by the road on the bicyclist. This force acts vertically upward, and it balances the weight, so its magnitude is equal to the weight of the bicyclist, and its direction is opposite

3) Applied force (F_A): this is the force exerted by the bicylicist to push the bike forward. Its direction is forward

4) Air drag (R): this is the force exerted by the air on the bicyclist and resisting the motion of the bike; its direction is opposite to the motion of the bike, so it is in the backward direction

So, we have 4 forces in total.

b)

Here we can find the net force on the bicyclist by using Newton's second law of motion, which states that the net force acting on a body is equal to the product between the mass of the body and its acceleration:

F_{net}=ma

where

F_{net} is the net force

m is the mass of the body

a is its acceleration

In this problem we have:

m = 60 kg is the mass of the bicyclist

a=3.1 m/s^2 is its acceleration

Substituting, we find the net force on the bicyclist:

F_{net}=(60)(3.1)=186 N

c)

We can write the net force acting on the bicyclist in the horizontal direction as the resultant of the two forces acting along this direction, so:

F_{net}=F_a-R

where:

F_{net} is the net force

F_a is the applied force (forward)

R is the air drag (backward)

In this problem we have:

F_{net}=186 N is the net force (found in part b)

R=60 N is the magnitude of the air drag

Solving for F_a, we find the force produced by the bicyclist while pedaling:

F_a=F_{net}+R=186+60=246 N

(6.MS-ETS2-1(MA).) The electrons in __________ move about more freely than the electrons in insulators which is why this type of
Tresset [83]

Answer:

A) conductors

Explanation:

A conductor can be defined as any material or object that allows the free flow of current or electrons (charge) in one or more directions in an electrical circuit. Some examples of a conductor are metals, tungsten, copper, aluminum, iron, graphite, etc.

Basically, the main purpose of a conductor in physics is to provide a low-resistance path between electrical circuits or components. This low-resistance path is to ensure that the electrical components allows the free flow of electrons and thus, enabling charge transfer.

Hence, the electrons in conductors move about more freely than the electrons in insulators which is why this type of material can be used to create electric circuits because it would significantly provide a low-resistance path between the electric circuits.

To the nearest square foot, how many square feet are there in an area of 4.4 square meters?
vichka [17]

Answer:

    4.4 square meters = 47 square foot

Explanation:

We have

    1 meter = 3.28084 foot

    1 square meter = 3.28084 x 3.28084 square foot = 10.76 square foot

    4.4 square meters = 4.4 x 10.76 = 47.36 square foot = 47 square foot

    4.4 square meters = 47 square foot
