QUESTION -
A cyclist going up a slope with angle of 30 with speed of 3.5 m/s.
If he stops pedalling how much distance will he move before coming to rest friction is negligible .
Solve it please.......
SOLUTION -
In the above Question, the following information is given....
A cyclist going up a slope with angle of 30 with speed of 3.5 m/s.
If he stops pedalling how much distance will he move before coming to rest friction is negligible .
This can be easily solved by using the third Equation of Motion ....
According to the Equation :
{ V } ^ 2 = { U } ^ 2 + 2AS
=> { 0 } ^ 2 = { 3.5 } ^ 2 + 2 A S
=> AS = - { 3.5 } ^ 2 / 2
=> S = { -12.25 / 2 A }
Now,
Let us find the acceleration of the body.
The downward Acceleration is g, acceleration due to gravity.
Now,
The required Angle of inclination = 30°
The X component of Acceleration = - g cos 30°
The Y component of Acceleration = - g sin 30° { The required acceleration }
So, Now let us find the value of S
=> S = { -12.25 / -2 g sin 30° }
=> S = { -12.25 / - g } ( as 2 and sin 30° get canlcelled )
=> S is approximately equal to 1.225 metres taking the value of g as 10.
ANSWER :
After the cyclist stops pedaling, he will cover 1.225 Metres up the hill before stopping.
