Answer:
<h2>40 kg</h2>Explanation:
Find the diagram relating to the question for proper explanation of the question below.
Using the principle of moment
Sum of clockwise moments = Sum of anticlockwise moments
Moment = Force * perpendicular distance
For anti-clockwise moment:
Since the 30 kg moves in the anticlockwise direction according to the diagram
ACW moment = 30 * 1 = 30 kgm
For clockwise moment
If another child sits 0.75 m away from the pivot point on the opposite side, moment of the child in clockwise direction = M * 0.75 = 0.75M (M is the mass of the unknown child).
Equating both moments we have;
0.75M = 30
M = 30/0.75
M = 40 kg
The second child's mass is 40 kg
Answer:
Explanation:
The acceleration of the bycicle is given by:
where
v = 20 m/s is the final velocity of the bike
u = 40 m/s is the initial velocity
t = 5 s is the time interval
Substituting numbers, we find
and the acceleration is negative, which means that the bycicle is slowing down.
