A 70- kg bicycle rides his 9.8- kg bicycle with a speed of 16 m/ s. What is the magnitude of the braking force of the bicycle come to rest in 4.0 m?

Sagot :

Answer:

F = -319.2 N

Explanation:

Given that,

The mass of a bicyclist, m = 70 kg

Mass of the bicycle = 9.8 kg

The speed of a bicycle, v = 16 m/s

We need to find the magnitude of the braking force of the bicycle come to rest in 4.0 m.

The braking force is given by :

[tex]F=ma\\\\=\dfrac{m(v-u)}{t}\\\\=\dfrac{(70+9.8)(0-16)}{4}\\\\=-319.2\ N[/tex]

So, the required force is 319.2 N.
