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

Which of the following is not affect by muscles a blood temperature b digestion c hair growth d speech
Murrr4er [49]

Answer:

c

Explanation:

i would think c would be correct because

blood temperature IS affected by muscles

digestion IS affected by muscles

speech IS affected by muscles

so therefore <em>hair growth</em> IS NOT affected by muscles

We can model a pine tree in the forest as having a compact canopy at the top of a relatively bare trunk. Wind blowing on the top
frez [133]

We need to consider for this exercise the concept Drag Force and Torque. The equation of Drag force is

F_D = c_D A \frac{\rho V^2}{2}

Where,

F_D = Drag Force

c_D = Drag coefficient

A = Area

\rho= Density

V = Velocity

Our values are given by,

c_D = 0.5 (That is proper of a cone-shape)

A = 9m^2

\rho = 1.2Kg/m^3

V = 6.5m/s

Part A ) Replacing our values,

F_D = 0.5*9*\frac{1.2*6.5^2}{2}

F_D = 114.075N

Part B ) To find the torque we apply the equation as follow,

\tau = F*d

\tau = (114.075N)(7)

\tau = 798.525N.m

Which soil horizon is located closest to the earth's crust?
Pachacha [2.7K]

Answer: O horizon

Horizons refers to the distinct layers of soil lying parallel to the earth surface. Horizons develop as a result of soil formation. Soil forms as a result of weathering or rocks and addition of organic matter from the decomposition of plant and animal waste. Each horizon differs from the others on the basis of color, texture, type of particles present in the soil, type of minerals present and amount of organic matter present in the soil.

O horizon is the soil horizon that is located closest to the earth's crust. This horizon consist of undecayed or partially decayed animal and plant waste like shedded leaves, bark, animal skin and feces. As, the matter remains undecomposed, therefore, this horizon consists of low amount of organic matter and it is less fertile for plant growth.
