Which of the following makes a bicycle ride possible? Select one: a. Forward momentum b. Friction between the wheel and the ground c. The higher angular velocity of the wheels d. Torque to turn the wheels
The friction between the wheel and ground makes it possible. The wheel pushes the ground backwards as it rotates in forward direction and hence the ground in turn pushes the wheel forward.

A bicycle wheel is supported by two ropes A and B. The wheel is then spun to a high rotation rate in a clockwise direction when viewed from the A side. (a) Draw the angular velocity and angular momentum vectors for the wheel on the diagram. A В (b) The rope B is now removed. Explain why there is a torque acting on the system, and draw the torque vector on the diagram (e) Which way will the wheel precess...
This is an interesting phenomenon, and a very difficult one to explain. Both torque and angular momentum must be treated as vectors. Torque causes angular momentum to change according to the following equation: delta L rightarrow = rightarrow delta T To use this equation the direction of a torque vector must be defined. Follow the moment arm with the fingers of your right hand. Then turn your fingers to follow the force. As you do this, your thumb will point...
Part Al Select the best answer of the following multiple choice questions (32 Points), just circle your choices Question 1. A meter stick is pivoted at the 0.50-m line. A 6.0 kg object is hung from the 0.15-m line. Where should a 10.0 kg object be hung to achieve equilibrium (the meter stick oriented horizontal and motionless)? A) 0.06-m line B) 0.24-m line C) 0.46-m line D) 0.71-m line E) A 5.0 kg object cannot be placed anywhere on the...
1. The drive components of a two-speed bicycle are constructed as follows: • The rear wheel has a radius of 50 cm • The front gear has a radius of 10 cm, and is connected to the pedals • There are two rear gears: one with a radius of 5 cm (“high gear”), and one with a radius of 10 cm (“low gear”) • A chain connects the front gear to one of the rear gears; the cyclist can choose...
A common amusement park ride is a Ferris wheel (not drawn to scale). Riders sit in chairs that are on pivots so they remain level as the wheel turns at a constant rate.A particular Ferris wheel has a radius of 24 meters, and it makes one complete revolution around its axle (at location A) in 20 seconds. In all of the following questions, consider locationA (at the center of the axle) as the location around which we will calculate the...
A common amusement park ride is a Ferris wheel (see figure below, which is not drawn to scale). Riders sit in chairs that are on pivots so they remain level as the wheel turns at a constant rate. A particular Ferris wheel has a radius of 27 meters, and it makes one complete revolution around its axle (at location A) in 24 s. In all of the following questions, consider location A (at the center of the axle) as the...
A bicycle wheel has four firecrackers attached to it on opposite ends of the wheel's diameter, as shown in the figure to the right. When the firecrackers are lit, they release heated gas away from their front ends. The bicycle wheel is pivoted against a wall by its center of mass and is free to spin. a. Which way will the bicycle wheel spin when the firecrackers are lit? Explain using the torque right hand rule. b. What is the...
Walk. To start walking horizontally, a person must accelerate their body forward using static friction. A person can reach a speed of 2.0 m / s in a distance of 30 cm, starting from rest. Assuming constant acceleration, a) draw a force diagram for the start of the ride. (b) Apply Newton's second law to find the minimum static friction coefficient for the ride described. (c) If you want to walk faster, would you need more or less friction? Why?...
Holly comes into Matthew's bicycle shop to learn about the Easy Ride bicycle she saw in his newspaper ad. Matthew shows her the floor sample of the bicycle and says that it is designed to shift and brake more easily than her current model does. She decides to purchase one. Matthew gets a box from the back of the shop and sells it to her, stating that it contains the bicycle Holly wants. Based on his statements, which of the...
Tutorial: Angular Momentum and Torque III. Angular Momentum The angular momentum of a point particle is defined by: L = ixp. Here, is a vector that points from the point of rotation (or point around which the angular momentum is calculated) to the location of the particle and p = mb is the linear momentum of the particle. A Your little brother Joey is playing with his toy airplane. The airplane is tied to a string and its motor makes...
