Ответ:
(a) F = 1268.6 N = 1.27 KN
(b) Fn = 5100.4 N = 5.1 KN
Explanation:
(a)
The centripetal force is given as:
F = mv²/r
where,
F = Centripetal Force = ?
m = mass of the bike and man = 391 kg
v = constant speed = 24.3 m/s
r = radius of curvature = 182 m
Therefore,
F = (391 kg)(24.3 m/s)²/182 m
F = 1268.6 N = 1.27 KN
(b)
At the top, there are two forces acting on the body, which are centripetal force and the weight, both acting downwards. So, the normal reaction must be equal to the sum of these forces:
Fn = F + W
Fn = F + mg
Fn = 1268.6 N + (391 kg)(9.8 m/s²)
Fn = 1268.6 N + 3831.8 N
Fn = 5100.4 N = 5.1 KN

Lisa leaves her house and travels her route at a speed of 1.15m / s, at what time
Does it take to get to the bakery if you travel the same distance?
Explanation:
Given parameters:
Speed of Lisa = 1.15m/s
Unknown:
Time taken = ?
Solution;
To solve this problem, let us define speed.
Speed is the rate of change of distance with time. It is mathematically expressed as;
Speed =![\frac{distance}{time}](/tpl/images/0578/4400/75e70.png)
Since the unknown in this problem is time;
time =![\frac{distance}{speed}](/tpl/images/0578/4400/f0b80.png)
Now input the value of the speed;
time =
s
Since the value of the distance covered is not given, it is impossible to solve any further
