Two cyclists start on a race between points A and D on two different routes. Cyclist X takes the route passing through the equid

istant points A-B-C-D, each separated by a distance of 200 meters. Cyclist Y takes the direct route AD, which has a total length of 546.41 meters. Both cyclists reach the end point in 30 seconds. Calculate the displacement and average velocities of cyclists X and Y.

The displacement is the shortest distance between two points, which is 546.41. The displacement for both is 546.41 meters

Average velocity of X = (200 + 200 + 200) / 30
Average velocity of X = 20 m/s

Average velocity of Y = 546.41 / 30 = 18.2 m/s

For cyclist X, the displacement is 546.41 meters.

The velocity is the displacement ÷ time = 546.41 ÷ 30 = 18.21 meters/second.

For cyclist Y, the displacement is also 546.1 meters.

The velocity is displacement ÷ time = 546.1 ÷ 30 = 18.21 meters/second.

Although cyclist X and cyclist Y have traveled different distances in same time interval, their velocities and displacements are same.

In Paul Hewitt's book, he poses this question: "If the forces that act on a bullet and the recoiling gun from which it is fired
Sauron [17]
They have different accelerations because of their masses. According to Newton's Second Law, an objects acceleration is inversely proportional to its mass. Therefore the object with the larger mass, in this case the gun, will have a smaller acceleration. In the same way, the less massive object, being the bullet, will have a higher acceleration.

Hope this helps :)

A box slides down a frictionless plane inclined at an angle θ ¸ above the horizontal. The gravitational force on the box is dire
DedPeter [7]
<h2>Answer: at an angle \theta below the inclined plane. </h2>

If we draw the <u>Free Body Diagram</u> for this situation (figure attached), taking into account only the gravity force in this case, we will see the weight W of the block, which is directly proportional to the gravity acceleration g:  

W=m.g

This force is directed vertically at an angle \theta below the inclined plane, this means it has an X-component and a Y-component:

W=W_{X}+W_{Y}

W_{X}=m.g.cos(\theta)

W_{Y}=m.g.sin(\theta)

Therefore the correct option is c

Conservation of linear momentum:

m*v inital = m*v final

0.06*0.7 + 0.03*0 = 0.06*(-0.2) + 0.03*v

(my algebra, or use ur calculator: 0.06*.07=0.042, etc ... or ur teacher may think you got some help)

0.06*(0.7+0.2)=0.03*v, v = 0.06*0.9/0.03=1.8 m/s

Answer 1.8 m/s (positive, to the right).
