Hi there!

For an object to have a constant velocity, the SUM of the forces must equal 0. This means that the forces are balanced.

When a car is accelerating downhill, it is experiencing a force due to gravity of F = MgsinФ.

In order to balance the forces, there must be an equal and OPPOSITE force acting on the object. This would be a force of kinetic friction.

Thus:

∑F = -F (Kinetic Friction) + MgsinФ

0 = -F (Kinetic Friction) + MgsinФ

MgsinФ = F (Kinetic Friction)

Thus, the force of Kinetic Friction = -3674 N

(Negative indicates in the opposite direction)

Because its a vacuum, there's no air resistance, they will fall at same time

Two motorcycles travel along a straight road heading due north. At t = 0 motorcycle 1 is at x = 50 m and moves with a constant s
Oduvanchick [21]

Answer:

Vf = 23 m/s

Explanation:

First we need to find the distance covered by the motorcycle 2 when it passes motorcycle 1. Using the uniform speed equation for motorcycle 1:

s₁ = v₁t₁

where,

s₁ = distance covered by motorcycle 1 = ?

v₁ = speed of motorcycle 1 = 6.5 m/s

t₁ = time = 10 s

Therefore,

s₁ = (6.5 m/s)(10 s)

s₁ = 65 m

Now, for the distance covered by motorcycle 2 at the meeting point. Since, the motorcycle started 50 m ahead of motorcycle 2. Therefore,

s₂ = s₁ + 50 m

s₂ = 65 m + 50 m

s₂ = 115 m

Now, using second equation of motion for motorcycle 2:

s₂ = Vi t + (1/2)at²

where,

Vi = initial velocity of motorcycle 2 = 0 m/s

Therefore,

115 m = (0 m/s)(10 s) + (1/2)(a)(10 s)²

a = 230 m/100 s²

a = 2.3 m/s²

Now, using 1st equation of motion:

Vf = Vi + at

Vf = 0 m/s + (2.3 m/s²)(10 s)

Vf = 23 m/s

A scooter has wheels with a diameter of 120 mm. What is the angular speed of the wheels when the scooter is moving forward at 6.
nirvana33 [79]

To develop this problem we will apply the concepts related to angular kinematic movement, related to linear kinematic movement. Linear velocity can be described in terms of angular velocity as shown below,

v = r\omega \rightarrow \omega = \frac{v}{r}

Here,

v = Lineal velocity

\omega= Angular velocity

r = Radius

Our values are

v = 6/ms

r = \frac{d}{2} = \frac{120*10^{-3}}{2} = 0.06m

Replacing to find the angular velocity we have,

\omega = \frac{6m/s}{0.06m}

\omega = 100rad/s

Convert the units to RPM we have that

\omega = 100rad/s (\frac{1rev}{2\pi rad})(\frac{60s}{1m})

\omega = 955.41rpm

Therefore the angular speed of the wheels when the scooter is moving forward at 6.00 m/s is 955.41rpm
