A bicyclist is coasting straight down a hill at a constant speed. The mass of the rider and bicycle is 96.0 kg, and the hill is

inclined at 17.0° with respect to the horizontal. Air resistance opposes the motion of the cyclist. Later, the bicyclist climbs the same hill at the same constant speed. How much force (directed parallel to the hill) must be applied to the bicycle in order for the bicyclist to climb the hill?

Answer:

 The force applied 275 N in a direction parallel to the hill

Explanation:

Newton's second law is adequate to work this problem, in the annex we can see a free body diagram, where the weight (W) is vertical, the friction force (fr) is parallel to the surface and the normal (N ) is perpendicular to it. In general for these problems a reference system is taken that is parallel to the surface and the Y axis is perpendicular to it.

Let us decompose the weight into its two components, the angle T is taken from the axis and

            Wx = W sin θ

            Wy = W cos T

We write Newton's second law

              ∑ F = m a

X axis

          The cyclist falls at a constant speed, which implies that the acceleration is zero

              fr - W sin θ = 0

              fr = mg sin θ

              fr = 96 9.8 without 17

              fr = 275 N

When the cyclist returns to climb the hill, he must apply the same force he has to overcome the friction force that always opposes the movement .  The force applied 275 N in a direction parallel to the hill

Four point charges have equal magnitudes. Three are positive, and one is negative, as the drawing shows. They are fixed in place
Semmy [17]

Answer:

Ans= 9

See attached picture for clearer solution.

Explanation:

The net electrostatic force acting on charge A = 2/ 2 + 2 /(2) 2 − 2 /(3) 2 = 2 / 2 (1 + 1/4 – 1/9 ) = 41/36 2/2 .  

The net electrostatic force acting on charge B = 2/2 + 2/(2)2 − 2/2 = 1/4 2/d2 .  

The net electrostatic force acting on charge C = 2/2 + 2/(2)2 + 2/2 = 2/2 (1 + 1 4 + 1) = 9/4 2/2 .  

The net electrostatic force acting on charge D = 2/2+ 2 /(2)2 + 2/(3)2 = 2 /2 (1 + 1/4 + 1/9 ) = 49/36 2/ 2 .  

The ratio of the largest to the smallest net force = 9/4*2/2  /  1/4 2/2 . = 9

Light has been measured as traveling at 3×108 m/s in a vacuum. Which of the following also travels at the speed of light, and wh
Art [367]

Radio waves in a vacuum travel at the speed of light because they are a type of electromagnetic radiation like a light has been measured as traveling at 3×10^8 m/s in a vacuum.

Charged particles that are accelerating, like time-varying electric currents, are what produce radio waves. Radio and television signals are transmitted using radio waves, and microwaves used in radar and microwave ovens are also radio waves. Radio waves are emitted by a lot of celestial bodies, including pulsars. High RF exposure levels have the potential to heat biological tissue and raise body temperature. The body's inability to handle or remove the extra heat that could be generated by high RF exposure in humans could result in tissue damage.

Four point masses of 3.0 kg each are arranged in a square on masslessrods. The length of a side of the square is 0.50m. What is
Zigmanuir [339]

Answer:

Part a)

I = 1.5 kg m^2

Part b)

I = 0.75 kg m^2

Part c)

I = 1.5 kg m^2

Explanation:

Part a)

Moment of inertia of the system about an axis passing through B and C is given as

I = mL^2 + mL^2 + m(0) + m(0)

I = 2mL^2

I = 2(3 kg)(0.50^2)

I = 1.5 kg m^2

Part b)

Moment of inertia of the system about an axis passing through A and C is given as

I = m(0^2) + m(\frac{L}{\sqrt2})^2 + m(0) + m(\frac{L}{\sqrt2})^2

I = 2m\frac{L^2}{2}

I = (3 kg)(0.50^2)

I = 0.75 kg m^2

Part c)

Moment of inertia of the system about an axis passing through the center of the square and perpendicular to the plane of the square

I = m(\frac{L}{\sqrt2})^2 + m(\frac{L}{\sqrt2})^2 + m(\frac{L}{\sqrt2})^2 + m(\frac{L}{\sqrt2})^2

I = 4m\frac{L^2}{2}

I = 2(3 kg)(0.50^2)

I = 1.5 kg m^2

When the switched on, what type of energy is moving through the circuit?
BabaBlast [244]

Answer:

Heat energy

Explanation:

Electrons are flowing through the circuit, they pass through a resistor, in this case a light bulb. The energy is then transformed into light and heat energy.
