A 60kg bicyclist (including the bicycle) is pedaling to the

Fittoniya [83]

a) 4 forces

b) 186 N

c) 246 N

Explanation:

Let's count the forces acting on the bicylist:

1) Weight ( $W=mg$ ): this is the gravitational force exerted on the bicyclist by the Earth, which pulls the bicyclist towards the Earth's centre; so, this force acts downward (m = mass of the bicyclist, g = acceleration due to gravity)

2) Normal reaction (N): this is the reaction force exerted by the road on the bicyclist. This force acts vertically upward, and it balances the weight, so its magnitude is equal to the weight of the bicyclist, and its direction is opposite

3) Applied force ( $F_A$ ): this is the force exerted by the bicylicist to push the bike forward. Its direction is forward

4) Air drag ( $R$ ): this is the force exerted by the air on the bicyclist and resisting the motion of the bike; its direction is opposite to the motion of the bike, so it is in the backward direction

So, we have 4 forces in total.

Here we can find the net force on the bicyclist by using Newton's second law of motion, which states that the net force acting on a body is equal to the product between the mass of the body and its acceleration:

$F_{net}=ma$

where

$F_{net}$ is the net force

m is the mass of the body

a is its acceleration

In this problem we have:

m = 60 kg is the mass of the bicyclist

$a=3.1 m/s^2$ is its acceleration

Substituting, we find the net force on the bicyclist:

$F_{net}=(60)(3.1)=186 N$

We can write the net force acting on the bicyclist in the horizontal direction as the resultant of the two forces acting along this direction, so:

$F_{net}=F_a-R$

where:

$F_{net}$ is the net force

$F_a$ is the applied force (forward)

$R$ is the air drag (backward)

In this problem we have:

$F_{net}=186 N$ is the net force (found in part b)

$R=60 N$ is the magnitude of the air drag

Solving for $F_a$ , we find the force produced by the bicyclist while pedaling:

$F_a=F_{net}+R=186+60=246 N$

The radial velocity method preferentially detects: Choose one: A. all of the above described planets equally well. B. small plan

Zina [86]

The radial velocity method preferentially detects large planets close to the central star

what is the Radial velocity:

The radial velocity technique is able to detect planets around low-mass stars, such as M-type (red dwarf) stars.

This is due to the fact that low mass stars are more affected by the gravitational tug of planets.

When a planet orbits around a star, the star wobbles a little.

From this, we can determine the mass of the planet and its distance from the star.

hence we can say that,

option D is correct.

The radial velocity method preferentially detects large planets close to the central star

Friends Burt and Ernie stand at opposite ends of a uniform log that is floating in a lake. The log is 3.0 m long and has mass 20

Taya2010 [7]

Answer:

The distance the log has moved by the time Ernie reaches Bur is 1.33 m.

Explanation:

give information:

The log is 3.0 m long and has mass 20.0 kg.

Burt has mass 30.0 kg; Ernie has mass 40.0 kg

Ernie has mass 40.0 kg.

to find the distance, first, we have to calculate the center of mass

X = ∑ m x /∑m

= (20 x (3/2)) + (30 x 0) + (40 x 3)/ (20+30+40)

= 150/90

= 5/3

when Ernie walk, the center of the mass is

X = (70 x 0) + (20 x (3/2))/(70 + 20)

= 30/90

= 1/3

the distance of log moved = 5/3 - 4/3 = 1.33 m
