The car will roll forward about the same speed that the truck collideed with it, and the truck will slow down greatly but still move a little.

newtons first law states that a object in motion will stay in motion unless acted on by an outside force and an object at rest will stay at rest for the same reason. the force of a moving object is equal to its mass times its acceleration.

Bicyclists in the Tour de France do enormous amounts of work during a race. For example, the average power per kilogram generate
tigry1 [53]

Explanation:

It is given that,

Average power per unit mass generated by Lance, \dfrac{P}{m}=6.5\ W/kg

P=6.5\times 75=487.5\ W

(a) Distance to cover race, d = 160\ km =160\times 10^3\ m

Average speed of the person, v = 11 m/s

If t is the time taken to cover the race.

t=\dfrac{d}{v}

t=\dfrac{160\times 10^3\ m}{11\ m/s}

t = 14545.46 s

Let W is the work done. The relation between the work done and the power is given by :

P=\dfrac{W}{t}

W=P\times t

W=487.5\times 14545.46

W = 7090911.75 J

(b) Since, 1\ J=2.389\times 10^{-4}\ calories

So, in 7090911.75 J, W=7090911.75 \times 2.389\times 10^{-4}

W = 1694.01 J

Hence, this is the required solution.

you measured the torque caused by the gyroscope's weight by lifting up the end of the gyroscope (at 7.5 inches). If you measured
DIA [1.3K]

Answer:

i) No, the spring scale does not read a different value

ii) The torque will read a different value, it will reduce

iii) The spring scale does not need to be measured at the center of mass location.

Explanation:

The torque caused by the gyroscope can be given by the relation,

\tau = r × f

\tau = rf cos \theta

The torque measured by the gyroscope varies directly with the distance, r.

A decrease in the distance r will also cause a decrease in the value of the torque measured. When the distance, r is reduced from 7.5 inches to 5 inches, the torque caused by the gyroscope's weight also reduces.

The weight of the gyroscope remains constant despite the reduction in the distance because the weight  of the gyroscope is not a function of the distance from the gyroscope. Therefore, the spring scale will not read a different value.

Yes, the spring scale does not need to be measured from the center of mass location because the weight does not depend on the location of measurement. The reading of the sprig scale remains constant.
