A well maintained bicycle is key.  Oil the chain so that it's less likely to get hung up.  It will have a smoother flow.  Another could be in their clothing.  Notice they usually wear good fitting clothing?  I believe the more from fitting pants help clothing friction.  Another way could be keeping the tires well inflated so that the tires aren't dragging.  Rolling along smoothly on properly inflated tires seems like a must.  Get a few more answers along with mine, so that you have a variety to choose from.

You have a length of tubing that is closed at one end. You cut the tubing into two pieces of unequal length, giving you a tube o
umka21 [38]

Answer:

The funda mental frequency of the original tube is 182Hz.

Explanation:

See the attachment for the calculation steps.

In order to calculate the fundamental frequency of the original closed tube we need to find the length of the tube which is equal to the sum of the lengths of the two new tubes.

For closed tubes

f = nv/4L (n = 1, 3, 5,...n)

f = nv/2L (n = 1, 2, 3,...n)

The details of calculation can be found below in the attachment.

Find the magnitude of the resultant force and the angle it makes with the positive x-axis. (Let |a| = 22 lb and |b| = 16 lb. Rou
SVEN [57.7K]

Incomplete question as the angle between the force is not given I assumed angle of 55°.The complete question is here

Two forces, a vertical force of 22 lb and another of 16 lb, act on the same object. The angle between these forces is 55°. Find the magnitude and direction angle from the positive x-axis of the resultant force that acts on the object. (Round to one decimal places.)  

Answer:

Resultant Force=33.8 lb

Angle=67.2°

Explanation:

Given data

Fa=22 lb

Fb=16 lb

Θ=55⁰

To find

(i) Resultant Force F

(ii)Angle α

Solution

First we need to represent the forces in vector form

\sqrt{x} F_{1}=22j\\ F_{2}=u+v\\F_{2}=16sin(55)i+16cos(55)j\\F_{2}=16(0.82)i+16(0.5735)j\\F_{2}=13.12i+9.176j

Total Force

F=F_{1}+F_{2}\\ F_{2}=22j+13.12i+9.176j\\F_{2}=13.12i+31.176j

The Resultant Force is given as

|F|=\sqrt{x^{2} +y^{2} }\\|F|=\sqrt{(13.12)^{2} +(31.176)^{2} }\\ |F|=33.8lb

For(ii) angle

We can find the angle bu using tanα=y/x

So

tan\alpha =\frac{31.176}{13.12}\\ \alpha =tan^{-1} (\frac{31.176}{13.12})\\\alpha =67.2^{o}

Two long wires hang vertically. Wire 1 carries an upward current of 1.50 A . Wire 2,20.0cm to the right of wire 1, carries a dow
Inessa [10]

The magnitude of the current in wire 3  is 2.4 A and in a direction pointing in the downward direction.

  • The force per unit length between two parallel thin current-carrying I_1 and I_2  wires at distance ' r ' is given by  f=\frac{u_0I_1I_2}{2\pi r}   ....(1) .
  • If the current is flowing in both wires in the same direction, and  the force between them will be the attractive force and if the current is flowing in opposite direction in wires then the force between them will be the repulsive force.

A schematic of the information provided in the question can be seen in the image attached below.

From the image, force on wire 2 due to wire 1 = force on wire 2 due to wire 3

F_2_1=F_2_3

Using equation (1) , we get

\frac{u_0I_2I_1}{0.2} =\frac{u_0I_2I_3}{0.32} \\\\\frac{I_1}{0.2} =\frac{I_3}{0.32} \\\\\frac{1.50}{0.2} =\frac{I_3}{0.32} \\\\0.48=0.2I_3\\\\I_3=2.4A

I₃ = 2.4 A and the current is pointing in the downward direction
