What is a centripetal acceleration of a point on a bicycle wheel of a radius of 0.70 m when a bike is moving 8.0 m/s

Physics

Furkat [3]4 years ago

Answer:

The acceleration of a point on the wheel is 11.43 m/s² acting radially inward.

Explanation:

The centripetal acceleration acts on a body when it is performing a circular motion.

Here, a point on the bicycle is performing circular motion as the rotation of the wheel produces a circular motion.

The centripetal acceleration of a point moving with a velocity v and at a distance of r from the axis of rotation is given as:

a=\frac{v^2}{r}

Here, v=8\ m/s,r=0.70\ m

∴ a=\frac{8}{0.70}=11.43\ m/s^2

Therefore, the acceleration of a point on the wheel is 11.43 m/s² acting radially inward.

A person gives a shopping cart an initial push along a horizontal floor to get it moving, and then lets go. The cart travels for
mash [69]

Answer:

Only a backward force is acting, no forward force.

Explanation:

  • Once released from the initial push, in absence of friction, the shopping cart would continue moving forward at a constant speed forever.
  • As it would move at a constant speed, no net force would be acting on it.
  • So, if it is gradually slowing, there must  be a net force producing an acceleration in a direction opposite to the movement.
  • This force is the kinetic friction force, and is the only force acting on the cart in the horizontal direction.
  • As any friction force, opposes to the relative movement between the cart and the horizontal floor, which means that is directed backward.
  • This is consistent with the direction of the acceleration of the cart.
