When a train first starts going down the railroad, it is very difficult for it to get going. When it comes to a stop, it has a h
Sindrei [870]
<h2>The option ( c ) is correct</h2>

Explanation:

When we apply the force on any body , the inertia comes into play . It is the tenancy of the the body to oppose the force which tends to change its state .

In first case the train tries to change its state from rest to motion . Thus the inertia of rest opposes this tendency.

In the second case , the train tries to come from motion to the state of rest . Thus again , inertia opposes it .

Therefore inertia is the factor which creates difficulty in both case . Hence option ( c ) is correct

A person who weighs 864 N is riding a 85-N mountain bike. Suppose the entire weight of the rider plus bike is supported equally
svetoff [14.1K]

Answer:

A=60.06 x 10⁻⁵ m²

Explanation:

Given that

Weight of the person = 864 N

Weight of the bike = 85 N

The total weight ,car + bike ,Wt= 864 + 85 N

 Wt = 949 N

2 p = 949 N

The weight on the each tire(F) = 474.5  N

P = 7.9 x 10 ⁵  Pa

We know that

Force = Pressure x Area

F= P A

By putting the values

474.5 =  7.9 x 10 ⁵  A

A=60.06 x 10⁻⁵ m²

Therefore area of contact A

A=60.06 x 10⁻⁵ m²
