Answer:
his speeds while going to city is 10 mph and while his round trip the speed will be 9 mph
Explanation:
Let say the speed of the bicycle while he moves towards the city is "v"
now the speed of the round trip must be smaller by 1 mph
so its speed for round trip will be
now we know that total time of the motion is 19 hr
so we will have
so we will have
by solving above equation we have
so his speeds while going to city is 10 mph and while his round trip the speed will be 9 mph
The centripetal acceleration a is 4.32 10^-4 m/s^2.
<u>Explanation:</u>
The speed is constant and computing the speed from the distance and time for one full lap.
Given, distance = 400 mm = 0.4 m, Time = 100 s.
Computing the v = 0.4 m / 100 s
v = 4 10^-3 m/s.
radius of the circular end r = 37 mm = 0.037 m.
centripetal acceleration a = v^2 / r
= (4 10^-3)^2 / 0.037
a = 4.32 10^-4 m/s^2.
