When you ride a bicycle in what direction is the angular velocity of the wheels?

Physics
1 answer:
melomori [17]4 years ago
4 0
I think that the angular velocity vector points at right angles to the direction in which the wheels are turning (spindle on an old fashioned record player ?) and so at right angles to the direction the bike is moving in. This contributes to the gyroscope effect on the wheels and bike and allows a rapidly rotating wheel to be more stable than a slowly rotating one. Problem for the trainee cyclist is to believe that they are actually more stable when their wheels are moving quickly. 'cos the tendency is to go slowly to start with, which makes balancing harder. 
But then, most cyclists, especially youngsters, don't sit down all day analysing circular motion vectors, which may be just as well.

A rock is attached to the left end of a uniform meter stick that has the same mass as the rock. How far from the left end of the
kotykmax [81]

Answer:

M₂ = M  then L₂ = L

M₂> M  then L₂ = \frac{M}{M_{2}} L

Explanation:

This is a static equilibrium exercise, to solve it we must fix a reference system at the turning point, generally in the center of the rod. By convention counterclockwise turns are considered positive

          ∑ τ = 0

           

The mass of the rock is M and placed at a distance, L the mass of the rod M₁, is considered to be placed in its center of mass, which by uniform e is in its geometric center (x = 0) and the triangular mass M₂, with a distance L₂

The triangular shape of the second object determines that its mass can be considered concentrated in its geometric center (median) that tapers with a vertical line if the triangle is equilateral, the most used shape in measurements.

         M L + M₁ 0 - m₂ L₂ = 0

         M L - m₂ L₂ = 0

         L₂ = \frac{M}{M_{2}} L

From this answer we have several possibilities

* if the two masses are equal then L₂ = L

* If the masses are different, with M₂> M then L₂ = \frac{M}{M_{2}} L

The gravitational force between the charged constituents of the atom is negligible compared with the electric force between them
katrin2010 [14]

Answer: The initial force is reduced a factor 1/4 when the separation between charge is doubled

Explanation: As it well known the electric force between two charges is given by:

Finitial=k*q1*q2/d^2 where d is the distance between charges and k is a constant

if the distance is doubled this means 2*dinitial thus the new force is equal to F initial* 1/4
