Complete question is;

A bicycle and a car start their journey at the same time the cyclist reaches it's top speed of 10m/s in 15 s, the car reaches a speed of 15 m/s in 55 s. which has the greater acceleration the car or the bicycle.

Answer:

The bicycle has the greater acceleration.

Explanation:

Cyclist reaches a top speed of 10m/s in 15 s.

Formula for acceleration here is;

a = v/t

a = 10/15

a = 0.67 m/s²

Car reaches a speed of 15 m/s in 55 s.

Thus;

a = 15/55

a = 0.27 m/s²

From the 2 acceleration values gotten, we can say that;

The bicycle has the greater acceleration.

If a net horizontal force of 7.5 N is applied to a baby carriage whose mass is 12.5 kg what acceleration is
11111nata11111 [884]

Answer:

<h2>0.6 m/s²</h2>

Explanation:

The acceleration of an object given it's mass and the force acting on it can be found by using the formula

a =  \frac{f}{m} \\

f is the force

m is the mass

From the question we have

a =  \frac{7.5}{12.5}  \\

We have the final answer as

<h3>0.6 m/s²</h3>

Hope this helps you

Answer:

The way in which objects exert forces on each other is described by Newton’s 3rd law of motion

Explanation:

Objects with mass exert forces on each other via the force of gravity. This force is proportional to the mass of the two interacting objects and is inversely proportional to the square of the distance between them. The factors G, M, and rare the same for all masses at the surface of the Earth.

A 1100-kg car pulls a boat on a trailer. (a) what total force resists the motion of the car, boat, and trailer, if the car exert
jeka94
Refer to the diagram shown below.

R = total resistive force.
      80% of this force is experienced by the boat and trailer.
T =  the force in the hitch between the car and the trailer.

Overall motion:
Total mass = 1100 + 700 = 1800 kg
Acceleration = 0.55 m/s²
Driving force = 1900 N
Resisting force = R N
Therefore
(1900 - R N) = (1800 kg)*(0.55 m/s²)
1900 - R = 990
R = 910 N
0.2R = 182 N
0.8R = 728 N

Consider the motion of the car:
Driving force = 1900 N
Resistive force = 0.2R = 182 N
Force in the hitch  = T NAcceleration = 0.55 m/s²
Mass  = 1100 kg
Therefore
1900 - 0.2R - T = 1100*0.55
1900 - 182 -T = 605
T = 1113 N

Answer:
R = 910 N, the total resistive force.
T = 1113 N, the force in the hitch between the car and trailer.
