A bicyclist with a mass of 50 kg is traveling at a rate of 30 m/s. It accelerates to a rate of 50 m/s in 5 seconds. What is the net force acting on the bicycle?

Respuesta :

Answer:

200 N

Explanation:

There is only two needed factors in play here; the mass and acceleration

According to Newton's 2nd Law: F = m*a

Now Acceleration is Velocity over Time, so we have another factor in play: Acceleration = 50-30/5 = 20/5 = 4m/s^2

Net force = (50 kg)(4 m/s^2) = 50*4 = 200 Newtons
