Question

(1)

A high-speed railway car goes around a flat, horizontal circle of radius 400 m at a constant speed. The magnitudes of the horizontal and vertical components of the force of the car on a 75.0 kg passenger are 211 N and 735 N, respectively.

(a) What is the magnitude of the net force (of all the forces) on the passenger?

(2)

a bicyclist travels in a circle of radius 30 m at a constant speed of 12 m/s. the bicycle –rider mass is 85 kg.

(a)what is the magnitudes of the net force on the bicycle from the road.

what is difference from those ?

i think (1)(a) is 211N ,and (2)(a) is 927 N ,isn't it?

Explanation / Answer

Resultant force =(Fx2+Fy2)

1)net force= 764.686 newton

2)required force to keep bicycle in circle fx=mv2/r=408 newton

net force=m2g2+fx2 =927.552 newton
