A cyclist is coasting at 11 m/s when she starts down a 450 m long slope that is 30 m high. The cyclist and her bicycle have a combined mass of 70 kg. A steady 14 N drag force due to air resistance acts on her as she coasts all the way to the bottom.
Homework Answers
Mass m = 70 kg
u = initial velocity = 11m/s
g = 9.8 m/s^2
F = 14 N
x = 450 m
Apply the Law of conservation of energy and solve the speed.
= 0.5mu^2 + mgH = Fx + 0.5mV^2
Put values..
= 0.5*70*11^2+ 70*9.8*30 = 14*450 +0.5*70*V^2
= 4235+20580=6300+35V^2
= 24815= 6300+35 V^2
=24815-6300= 35V^2
=18515=35V^2
=V^2= 18515/35
=V^2=529
= V=23 m/s

Imagine a cyclist coasting down a 5.0◦ incline at a constant speed of 6.0 km/h because of air resistance. If the total mass of the bicycle + cyclist is 50 kg, how much force must be generated to climb back up the incline at the same speed (and same air resistance)?

A woman rides a bicycle down a hill with a 15% slope (rise/run). The combined mass of the bicycle plus woman is 50 kg. She is riding into a 20-km-per hour wind. The only forces acting on the woman are drag force and weight. If the woman and bicycle together have a projected area of 1.0 m2, and the coefficient of drag is 1.1, how fast is the bicycle going relative to the ground? The density of air is 1.23...

A 64.0-kg skier starts from rest at the top of a ski slope of height 64.0 m . a) If frictional forces do −1.01×104 J of work on her as she descends, how fast is she going at the bottom of the slope? Take free fall acceleration to be g = 9.80 m/s2 b) Now moving horizontally, the skier crosses a patch of soft snow, where the coefficient of friction is 0.25. If the patch is of width 62.0 m...

A skier with mass 64.0 kg starts at rest at the top of an 842 m long ski slope, which makes an angle 13.0 ∘ with the horizontal. A typical coefficient of friction between skis and snow is 5.20×10−2. skiers don't go straight down the hill- they zigzag back and forth. Even though they still end up at the bottom of the hill, they've lost more energy to friction because friction is a non-conservative force. Let's say due to zigzagging,...

Question 2 A 50 kg skateboarder is planning a trick for an upcoming competition. She starts out riding her 7 kg skateboard with initial speed of 2.5 m/s. She and the skateboard then slide down a slope of height 3 meters. At the bottom of the slope, she steps from the first skateboard onto a second stationary 7 kg skateboard, leaving the first skateboard moving at half the speed it was before the switch. Finally, riding the 2nd skateboard, she...

A skater is moving with a speed of 3.3 m/s when she is at a height of 5 m above the ground on the frictionless track below. Neglect the effects of air resistance. Use the conservation of energy to determine the skater’s speed when she is 2 m above the ground on her way down the track. Use the conservation of energy to determine the skater’s speed when she is 2 m above the ground on her way back up...
