c) 246 N
Explanation:
a)
Let's count the forces acting on the bicylist:
1) Weight (): this is the gravitational force exerted on the bicyclist by the Earth, which pulls the bicyclist towards the Earth's centre; so, this force acts downward (m = mass of the bicyclist, g = acceleration due to gravity)
2) Normal reaction (N): this is the reaction force exerted by the road on the bicyclist. This force acts vertically upward, and it balances the weight, so its magnitude is equal to the weight of the bicyclist, and its direction is opposite
3) Applied force (): this is the force exerted by the bicylicist to push the bike forward. Its direction is forward
4) Air drag (): this is the force exerted by the air on the bicyclist and resisting the motion of the bike; its direction is opposite to the motion of the bike, so it is in the backward direction
So, we have 4 forces in total.
b)
Here we can find the net force on the bicyclist by using Newton's second law of motion, which states that the net force acting on a body is equal to the product between the mass of the body and its acceleration:
where
is the net force
m is the mass of the body
a is its acceleration
In this problem we have:
m = 60 kg is the mass of the bicyclist
is its acceleration
Substituting, we find the net force on the bicyclist:
c)
We can write the net force acting on the bicyclist in the horizontal direction as the resultant of the two forces acting along this direction, so:
where:
is the net force
is the applied force (forward)
is the air drag (backward)
In this problem we have:
is the net force (found in part b)
is the magnitude of the air drag
Solving for , we find the force produced by the bicyclist while pedaling:
Answer:
A. The work done during the process is W = 0
B. The value of heat transfer during the process Q = 442.83
Explanation:
Given Data
Initial pressure = 100 k pa
Initial temperature = 25 degree Celsius = 298 Kelvin
Final pressure = 300 k pa
Vessel is rigid so change in volume of the gas is zero. so that initial volume is equal to final volume.
⇒ =
------------- (1)
Since volume of the gas is constant so pressure of the gas is directly proportional to the temperature of the gas.
⇒ P ∝ T
⇒ =
⇒ Put all the values in the above formula we get the final temperature
⇒ =
× 298
⇒ = 894 Kelvin
(A). Work done during the process is given by W = P × ()
From equation (1), =
so work done W = P × 0 = 0
⇒ W = 0
Therefore the work done during the process is zero.
Heat transfer during the process is given by the formula Q = m (
-
)
Where m = mass of the gas = 1 kg
= specific heat at constant volume of nitrogen = 0.743
Thus the heat transfer Q = 1 × 0.743 × ( 894- 298 )
⇒ Q = 442.83
Therefore the value of heat transfer during the process Q = 442.83
