A bicyclist makes a trip that consists of three parts, each in the same direction (due north) along a straight road. during the

first part, she rides for 22 minutes at an average speed of 7.2 m/s. during the second part, she rides for 36 minutes at an average speed of 5.1 m/s. finally, during the third part, she rides for 8.0 minutes at an average speed of 13 m/s.
a. how far has the bicyclist traveled during the entire trip?
b. what is her average velocity for the entire trip?

part a)

path of the cyclist consist of three parts

during the first part, she rides for 22 minutes at an average speed of 7.2 m/s. during the second part, she rides for 36 minutes at an average speed of 5.1 m/s. finally, during the third part, she rides for 8.0 minutes at an average speed of 13 m/s.

total distance in first part

d_1 = 22*60 * 7.2 = 9504 m

total distance in second part

d_2 = 36*60 * 5.1 = 11016 m

total distance in third part

d_3 = 8 * 60 * 13 = 6240 m

so total distance would be

d = 9504 + 11016 + 6240 = 26760 m

part b)

average velocity is given as

v = \frac{displacement}{time}

v = \frac{26760}{(22 + 36 + 8)*60}

v = 6.76 m/s

so average velocity is 6.76 m/s

An object of known mass M with speed v0 travels toward a wall. The object collides with it and bounces away from the wall in the
Bingel [31]

Neither side of the equation may be used because there are too many unknown quantities before, during, and after the collision

Explanation:

The impulse theorem states that the change in momentum of an object is equal to the impulse, which is the product between the average force applied and the duration of the collision:

\Delta p = F \Delta t

where

\Delta p is the change in momentum

F is the average force

\Delta t is the duration of the collision

In this problem, neither side of the equation can be used to measure the change in momentum. In fact:

- The change in momentum (left side) is given by

\Delta p = m(v-u)

where

m is the mass of the object

u is the initial velocity

v is the final velocity

Here the final velocity is not known, so it's not possible to use this side of the equation

- The impulse (right side) is given by

F\Delta t

here the average force is known, however the duration of the collision is not known, so it's not possible to use this side of the equation.

The Special Olympics raises money through "plane pull" events in which teams of 25 people compete to see who can pull a 74,000 k
Murrr4er [49]

Answer:

28716.4740661 N

1.2131147541 m/s

51.2474965841%

Explanation:

m = Mass of plane = 74000 kg

s = Displacement = 3.7 m

f = Frictional force = 14000 N

t = Time taken = 6.1 s

u = Initial velocity = 0

v = Final velocity

s=ut+\frac{1}{2}at^2\\\Rightarrow 3.7=0\times 6.1+\frac{1}{2}\times a\times 6.1^2\\\Rightarrow a=\frac{3.7\times 2}{6.1^2}\\\Rightarrow a=0.198871271164\ m/s^2

Force is given by

F=ma+f\\\Rightarrow F=74000\times 0.198871271164+14000\\\Rightarrow F=28716.4740661\ N

The force with which the team pulls the plane is 28716.4740661 N

v=u+at\\\Rightarrow v=0+0.198871271164\times 6.1\\\Rightarrow v=1.2131147541\ m/s

The speed of the plane is 1.2131147541 m/s

Kinetic energy is given by

K=\dfrac{1}{2}mv^2\\\Rightarrow K=\dfrac{1}{2}\times 74000\times 1.2131147541^2\\\Rightarrow K=54450.9540448\ J

Work done is given by

W=Fs\\\Rightarrow W=28716.4740661\times 3.7\\\Rightarrow W=106250.954045\ J

The fraction is given by

\dfrac{54450.9540448}{106250.954045}=0.512474965841

The teams 51.2474965841% of the work goes to kinetic energy of the plane.
