Question

A cyclist was traveling at 5km/h when he observed a swarm of fierce bees behind him.He accelerates from 5Km/h to 42km/h within 15 seconds mass is 60kg and that of the bicycle 15 kg.calculate the 1.acceleration 2.acceleration mass 3.force required for the acceleration.

Answer 1

1. acceleration = change in speed / change in time

2. acceleration mass = rider mass + bicycle mass

3. force = mass * acceleration
... Newtons = kg * m/s^2
