The distance between the centers of the wheels of a motorcycle is 156 cm. The center of mass of the motorcycle, including the ri

der, is 77.5 cm above the ground and halfway between the wheels. Assume the mass of each wheel is small compared to the body of the motorcycle. The engine drives the rear wheel only. What horizontal acceleration of the motorcycle will make the front wheel rise off the ground?

Answer:

a = 9.86 m/s²

Explanation:

given,

distance between the centers of wheel = 156 cm

center of mass of motorcycle including rider = 77.5 cm

horizontal acceleration of motor cycle = ?

now,

The moment created by the wheels must equal the moment created by gravity.

take moment about wheel as it touches the ground, here we will take horizontal distance between them.

then, take the moment around the center of mass. Since the force on the ground from the wheels is horizontal, we need the vertical distance.

now equating both the moment

m g d = F h

d is the horizontal distance

h is the vertical distance

m g d = m a h

term of mass get eliminated

g d = a h

so,

a = \dfrac{g\ d}{h}

a = \dfrac{9.8\times 0.78}{0.775}

a = 9.86 m/s²

What material parameters determine resistivity?
sleet_krkn [62]

Answer:

Resistivity \rho =\frac{RA}{l}

It depends upon cross sectional area and length of material

Explanation:

The resistance of any material is given by R=\frac{\rho l}{A}, here \rho is the resistivity of material , l is length of material and A is cross sectional area

So resistivity \rho =\frac{RA}{l}

So resistuivity of any material depends upon area of cross section and length of material

If cross sectional area will be more then resistivity will be more. And is length of the material will be more then resistivity will be less

[TRUE/FALSE] If an object is moving at constant velocity it must be in equilibrium.
DENIUS [597]

Answer:

yes

Explanation:

objects with constant velocity also have zero net external force. this means the forces on the object are balanced. this mean they are in equilibrium

After the box comes to rest at position x1, a person starts pushing the box, giving it a speed v1. when the box reaches position
KiRa [710]

As we know by work energy theorem

total work done = change in kinetic energy

so here we can say that wok done on the box will be equal to the change in kinetic energy of the system

W_p = KE_f - KE_i

initial the box is at rest at position x = x1

so initial kinetic energy will be ZERO

at final position x = x2 final kinetic energy is given as

KE_f = \frac{1}{2}mv_1^2

now work done is given as

W_p = \frac{1}{2}mv_1^2 - 0

so we can say

W_p = \frac{1}{2}mv_1^2

so above is the work done on the box to slide it from x1 to x2
