A motorcyclist is traveling at 51.9 mph on a flat stretch of highway during a sudden rainstorm. The rain has reduced the coeffic

ient of static friction between the motorcycle's tires and the road to 0.076 when the motorcyclist slams on the brakes. (a) What is the minimum distance required to bring the motorcycle to a complete stop? (b) What would be the stopping distance if it were not raining and the coefficient of static friction were 0.580?

Answer:

Part (a) 361m

Part (b) 47.4m

This problem involves involves the nonconservative frictional force. To solve this problem. The energy approacb will be used. The energy conservation is used to relate the work done by the frictional force over the required distance to the kinetic energy of the motorcycle before the brakes are applied.

Explanation:

The equation is

K1 + U1 + Wf = K2 + U2

Where U standa for potential energy which in this case is zero as the height of the motorcycle does not change over the distance of the application of the brakes to the tyres. The work of friction is negative.

The full solution can be found in the attachment below.

The electric motor in the car is powered by a battery.
Vinil7 [7]

Answer:

I = 30 A.

Explanation:

Given that,

The voltage of the battery, V = 230 V

Power used to charge the battery, P = 6.9 kW

We need to find the current used to charge the battery. The formula for the power is given by :

P = VI

Where

I is current

So,

So, the required current is 30 A.

A racecar is equipped with a computer that records the reading on its speedometer every second during a race. If you graph this
Tanya [424]
Because it records speed of the car at a certain time, the independent variable should be time and dependent would be speed or velocity. Since it's taken every second, it would be considered instantaneous velocity, which is D.
