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.

A zone reconnaissance involves a directed effort to obtain detailed information on all routes, obstacles, terrain, enemy forces,

son4ous [18]

Answer:

It is True

Explanation:.

A commander assigns a zone reconnaissance mission when he seeks additional information on a zone before committing other forces in the zone. It is appropriate when the enemy situation is vague, existing knowledge of the terrain is limited, or combat operations have altered the terrain. A zone reconnaissance could include several route or area reconnaissance missions assigned to subordinate units.

In a certain clock, a pendulum of length L1 has a period T1 = 0.95s. The length of the pendulum

gulaghasi [49]

Answer:

Ratio of length will be $\frac{L_2}{L_1}=1.108$

Explanation:

We have given time period of the pendulum when length is $L_1$ is $T_1=0.95sec$

And when length is $L_2$ time period $T_2=1sec$

We know that time period is given by

$T=2\pi \sqrt{\frac{L}{g}}$

So $0.95=2\pi \sqrt{\frac{L_1}{g}}$ ----eqn 1

And $1=2\pi \sqrt{\frac{L_2}{g}}$ -------eqn 2

Dividing eqn 2 by eqn 1

$\frac{1}{0.95}=\sqrt{\frac{L_2}{L_1}}$

Squaring both side

$\frac{L_2}{L_1}=1.108$

Assume a change at the source of sound reduces the wavelength of a sound wave in air by a factor of 3.

noname [10]

Explanation:

The speed of a wave is given by :

$v=f\lambda$ ......(1)

(i) Here, the wavelength of a sound wave in air reduces by a factor of 3. Equation (1) becomes :

$\lambda=\dfrac{v}{f}$

Wavelength and frequency are inversely proportional to each other. So, if wavelength of a sound wave in air reduces by a factor of 3, then the frequency will increases by a factor of 3.

(ii) It remains the same.
