Answer:

Force, F = 135 N

Explanation:

Given that,

Mass of the bicyclist, m = 90 kg

Centripetal acceleration of the bicyclist, $a=1.5\ m/s^2$

To find,

The centripetal force acting on the bicyclist.

Solution,

When an object moves in a circular track, it will under the action of centripetal acceleration and the exerted force is called centripetal force. It can be calculated as :

$F=ma$

$F=90\ kg\times 1.5\ m/s^2$

F = 135 N

So, the centripetal force acting on the bicyclist is 135 N.

What type of energy is involved when a river moves sediment and erodes its banks?

ziro4ka [17]

<span>First question: The type of energy involved when a river moves sediment and erodes its banks is: option d. Kinetic energy. Kinetic energy is the energy associated with motion. A body (in this case the water) that moves has an energy associated with its motion that is proportional to the speed (exactly to the square of the speed). When the water collides with the banks it is the kinetic energy of the river that erodes it Second question: the answer is the option d. As gravity pulls water down a slope potential energy changes to knietic energy. This is the, water loses altitude and gains velocity. The potential energy. which is proportional to the height, decreases and the kinetic energy, which is proportional to the square of the speed, increases.</span>

A 1.2 g pebble is stuck in a tread of a 0.76 m diameter automobile tire, held in place by static friction that can be at most 3.

Maksim231197 [3]

Answer:

$v=33.764m/s$

Explanation:

Given data

Mass m=1.2 g=0.0012 kg

diameter d=0.76 m

Friction Force F=3.6 N

To find

Velocity v

Solution

From the Centripetal force we know that

$F_{c}=\frac{mv^{2} }{r}$

Where m is mass

v is velocity

r is radius

Substitute the given values to find velocity v

$F_{c}=\frac{mv^{2} }{r}\\v^{2}=\frac{F_{c}(r)}{m}\\ v=\sqrt{\frac{F_{c}(r)}{m}}\\ v=\sqrt{\frac{F_{c}(diameter/2)}{m}}\\v=\sqrt{\frac{(3.6N)(0.76/2)m}{(0.0012kg)}}\\v=33.764m/s$

2. Keith took a cube and measured the mass and volume of a

galben [10]

Answer:

Explanation:

The density of a substance can be found by using the formula

$density = \frac{mass}{volume} \\$

From the question

mass = 36 g

volume = 6 cm³

We have

$density = \frac{36}{6} = 6 \\$

We have the final answer as

Hope this helps you

If chilled coke and hot tea are kept together tea cools down but coke gets warm .why?

Harlamova29_29 [7]

When hot tea is mixed to chilled coke, tea loses heat and coke gains heat. Thus, tea cools down but coke gets heated. Because it is liquid and liquid does not totally cool down to the ambient temperature, it and the iced drink will eventually reach the same temperature.
