Answer:

<em>Answer: (A) 0.75 m/s^2</em>

Explanation:

The Second Newton's law states that an object acquires acceleration when an external unbalanced net force is applied to it.

That acceleration is proportional to the net force and inversely proportional to the mass of the object.

It can be expressed with the formula:

\displaystyle a=\frac{F_n}{m}

Where

Fn = Net force

m  = mass

The ice skater pushes against a wall with a force of 59 N. The wall returns the force and the skater now has a net force of Fn=59 N that makes him accelerate. Being m=79 kg the mass of the skater, the acceleration is:

\displaystyle a=\frac{59}{79}

a = 0.75\ m/s^2

Answer: (A) 0.75 m/s^2

When you ride a bicycle, in what direction is the angular velocity of the wheels? When you ride a bicycle, in what direction is
Hitman42 [59]

Complete question is;

When you ride a bicycle, in what direction is the angular velocity of the wheels? A) to your left B) to your right C) forwards D) backwards

Answer:

Option A - to your left

Explanation:

While an object rotates, each particle will have a different velocity:

the 'Speed' component will vary with radius while the 'Direction' component will vary with angle.

All of the velocity vectors are aligned in the same plane.

We can be solve this by choosing a single vector normal to ALL of the possible velocity vectors of the rotating object in that plane.

This convention used is known as "Right-hand rule". The angular velocity vector points along the wheel's axle. For instance, if you Imagine wrapping your right hand around the axle so that your fingers point in the direction of rotation, with your thumb sticking out. You will notice that your thumb points to the left.

Thus;

By right-hand rule, a wheel rotating on a forward - moving bicycle has an angular velocity vector pointing to the rider's left.

So, option A is the correct answer

In which of the following materials is the velocity of light greatest?
just olya [345]
<span>The velocity of light is by far the greatest in air. There is nothing in air to stop or impede the movement of light in air. When light travels in air it will not stop unless running into clouds, smoke, smoke, droplets, or impurities. Any other substance is harder for light to travel through.</span>
