The mass of a cyclist together with the ...

The mass of a cyclist together with the bicycle is 90 kg. Calculate the work done by cyclist if the speed increases from 6km/h to 12 km/h.

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
C
`M=m_c+m_b=90m`
`u=6km/h=1.666m/sec`
`v=12 km/h=3.333 m/sec`

increse in K.E. =1/2Mv^2-1/2mu^2`
`=1/2 90xx(3.333)^2-1/2xx90x(1.66)^2`
=499.4-124.6`
`=374.8=375J`

A police jeep, approaching an othogonal intersection from the northern direction , is chasing a speeding car that has turned and moving straight east. When the jeep is 0.6 km north of the intersection and the car is 0.8km to the east. The police determine with a radar that the distance between them and the car is increasing at 20km/hr. If the jeep is moving at 60 km/hr at the instant of measurement, what is the speed of the car ?
