A bicyclist, initially at rest, begins pedaling and gaining speed steadily for 4.90s during which she covers 25.0m.

emmasim [6.3K]

The bicyclist accelerates with magnitude <em>a</em> such that

25.0 m = 1/2 <em>a</em> (4.90 s)²

Solve for <em>a</em> :

<em>a</em> = (25.0 m) / (1/2 (4.90 s)²) ≈ 2.08 m/s²

Then her final speed is <em>v</em> such that

<em>v</em> ² - 0² = 2<em>a</em> (25.0 m)

Solve for <em>v</em> :

<em>v</em> = √(2 (2.08 m/s²) / (25.0 m)) ≈ 10.2 m/s

Convert to mph. If you know that 1 m ≈ 3.28 ft, then

(10.2 m/s) • (3.28 ft/m) • (1/5280 mi/ft) • (3600 s/h) ≈ 22.8 mi/h

viva [34]

Set up the problem with the conversion rates as fractions where when you multiply the units cancel out leaving the desired units behind.

$( \frac{ 5 cm}{1 sec} ) *( \frac{1m }{100cm})*( \frac{1km}{1000m} )*( \frac{1mi}{1.6km} ) = 0.00003125 mi/sec \\ \\ ( \frac{0.00003125 mi}{1sec} )*( \frac{60sec}{1min} )*( \frac{60min}{1hr} )=0.1125 mi/hr$

During a neighborhood baseball game in a vacant lot, a particularly wild hit sends a 0.146 kg baseball crashing through the pane

Nonamiya [84]

Answer:

Impulse, |J| = 0.6716 kg-m/s

Force, F = 63.35 N

Explanation:

It is given that,

Mass of the baseball, m = 0.146 kg

Initial speed of the ball, u = 15.3 m/s

Final speed of the ball, v = 10.7 m/s

To find,

(a) The magnitude of this impulse.

(b) The magnitude of the average force of the glass on the ball.

Solution,

(a) Impulse of an object is equal to the change in its momentum. It is given by :

$J=m(v-u)$

$J=0.146\ kg(10.7-15.3)\ m/s$

J = -0.6716 kg-m/s

or

|J| = 0.6716 kg-m/s

(b) Another definition of impulse is given by the product of force and time of contact.

t = 0.0106 s

$J=F\times \Delta t$

$F=\dfrac{J}{\Delta t}$

$F=\dfrac{0.6716\ kg-m/s}{0.0106\ s}$

F = 63.35 N

Hence, this is the required solution.
