A cyclist is riding his bike up a mountain trail. When he starts up the trail, he is going 8 m/s. As the trail gets steeper, he

slows to 3 m/s in 1 minute. What is the cyclist's acceleration?Felipe drives his car at a velocity of 28 m/s. He applies the brake, which slows the vehicle down at a rate of 6.4 m/s2 and causes it to slow to a stop. How long does it take for the car to stop? Round your answer to the nearest tenth.

Answer:

a)   a = - 0.0833 m / s²,  b)   t = 4.4 s

Explanation:

a) this is a kinematics exercise where the acceleration is along the inclined plane

         v = v₀ - a t

         a = v₀ - v / t

         a = 3 - 8/60

         a = - 0.0833 m / s²

b) in this case the final velocity is zero

         v = v₀ - a t

         0 = v₀ - at

         t = v₀ / a

         t = 28 / 6.4

         t = 4.375 s

         t = 4.4 s

Relative density has no unit .why ?​
Klio2033 [76]

Answer:

Relative density is a ratio of the density of a certain material to the density of a reference material. Relative density has no unit, because the units of the material in question cancel out with the units of the reference material. For example, say a cooking oil’s density is 0.9 g/cm^3.

Two balls of unequal mass are hung from two springs that are not identical. The springs stretch the same distance as the two sys
IRISSAK [1]

Answer:

b) Springs oscillate with the same frequency,

Explanation:

expression for frequency of vibration of mass hanging from a spring is given as follows

f = \frac{1}{2\pi} \times \sqrt{\frac{k}{m} }

k is force constant of spring and m is mass vibrating .

In the present case, if mass stretches the spring by x and remains balanced

mg = k x

\frac{k}{m} =\frac{g}{x}

g and x are same  for both cases

\frac{k}{m} will also be same for both cases .

Hence frequency of vibration will also be same for both the balls .

A car is traveling at 15m/s on a horizontal road. the brakes are applied and the car skids to a stop in 4.0s . the coefficient o
iren2701 [21]

Answer:

the coefficient of Kinetic friction between the tires and road is 0.38

Option A) .38 is the correct answer

Explanation:

Given that;

final velocity v = 0

initial velocity u = 15m/s

time taken t = 4 s

acceleration  a = ?

from the equation of motion        

v   =   u   +   at

we substitute

0 = 15 + a × 4

acceleration a = -15/4 =  - 3.75 m/s²    

the negative sign tells us that its a  deacceleration so the sign can be ignored.

Deacceleration due to friction a = μ × g

we substitute

3.75 = μ × 9.8    

μ = 3.75 / 9.8 = 0.3826 ≈ 0.38

Therefore the coefficient of Kinetic friction between the tires and road is 0.38

Option A) .38 is the correct answer
