Answer:

291.1 Nm

Explanation:

Torque is simply the force required to cause a rotation, it is also sometimes referred to twisting force. In simple terms Torque is the rotational equivalent to the linear moment.

Calculating torque is a very simple process and is done with the following formula

T = F x d x SinФ

where

T = Toque (Nm)

F = Applied Force (N)

d = Distance from the axis of rotation (m)        

Ф = Angle between F and d (Degree)

hence the torque is

T = 41 x 7.1 x Sin90

T = 291.1 Nm

8_murik_8 [283]

After 20 s, the motorcycle attains a speed of

\left(4\dfrac{\rm m}{\mathrm s^2}\right)(20\,\mathrm s)=80\dfrac{\rm m}{\rm s}

and it continues at this speed for the next 40 s. So at 45 s, its speed is 80 m/s.

A helicopter travels west at 80 mph. It is moving above a car traveling on a highway at 80 mph. Given this information, you can
gavmur [86]

Answer:

d. at the same velocity

Explanation:

I will assume the car is also travelling westward because it was stated that the helicopter was moving above the car. In that case, it depends where the observer is. If the observer is in the car, the helicopter would look like it is standing still ( because both objects have the same velocity). If the observer is on the side of the road, both objects would be travelling at the same velocity. Also recall that, velocity is a vector quantity; it is direction-aware. Velocity is the rate at which the position changes but speed is the rate at which object covers distance and it is not direction wise. Hence velocity is the best option.
