A person who weighs 624 N is riding a 91−N mountain bike. Suppose the entire weight of the rider plus bike is supported equally by the two tires. If the gauge pressure in each tire is 7.10×105 Pa, what is the area of contact between each tire and the ground?

Assuming bicycle tires are perfectly flexible and support the weight of bicycle and rider by pressure alone, calculate the total area of the tires in contact with the ground if a bicycle and rider have a total mass of 80. 0 kg, and the gauge pressure in the tires is 3. 50×105 Pa. 13. 5 cm^2 22. 4 cm^2 32. 4 cm^2 10. 0 cm^2

(a) A person stands a distance d = 0.575 m from the left end of a plank as shown in the figure. The plank is supported by three ropes. Find the tension in each rope (in N ). Assume the plank is uniform, with length L = 2.00 m and mass 25.5 kg, and the weight of the person is 675 N. (Due to the nature of this problem, do not use rounded intermediate values in your calculations-including answers submitted in WebAssign.) |T→1| = N |T→2| = N |T→3| = N (b) What If? The person now begins to walk to the right. If each of the ropes can support a maximum tension of 750 N, which rope fails first? rope 1 rope 2 rope 3 At what location does this occur (measured in m from the left end of the plank)? m

A person drags a 30 kg box across the floor by pulling on a rope at an angle of 20∘ above the horizontal. a. Draw a system schema for this scenario. (Model the person and rope as a single object, and model the Earth and floor as a single object.) b. Your system schema above might show a single contact interaction between the floor and the box. However, if the floor is a rough surface, we will split this interaction into two different forces on our free body diagram: a force that is perpendicular to the surface and a force that is parallel to the surface. (We do this because these forces are due to different sorts of physical phenomena and we model them differently, as we will see later in the semester.) Draw a free body diagram for the box with the coordinate system on the right. Label all the forces like F→A on B c. Make a table of the x and y components of all the forces. d. Use your table to write a Newton's second law equation for the sum of the forces in both x and y directions. Do we know either the x component or the y component of the acceleration? If so, what is it? e. Suppose the force of gravity on the box is 300 N, the horizontal contact force is 120 N, and the force of the person pulling on the box is 160 N. Use this with your equations to determine any unknown forces and components of the acceleration. f. Assuming the acceleration you calculated is constant, how much time does it take for the person to pull the box a distance of 10 m if the box starts from rest?A person drags a 30 kg box across the floor by pulling on a rope at an angle of 20∘ above the horizontal. a.
