a bicycle rider pedals towards a hill at a speed of 7.5w/s. the combined mass of the bicycle and the rider is 75.0kg the cycle and rider roll up a hill without peddling . at what height will the cycle cone to rest (use g=10N/1g)

Sagot :

Answer:

2.8125 meters

Explanation:

I will assume 7.5 m/s

When the Kinetic Energy is entirely converted to Potential energy the max height will have been reached

KE = PE

1/2 m v^2 = mgh     divide by m

1/2 v^2 = gh         looking for  h     so divide both sides by

1/2 v^2 / g   = h      sub in the values   using g = 10 m/s^2

1/2 ( 7.5 )^2 / 10  = 2.8125 m
