A tandem (two-person) bicycle team must overcome a force of 165 Newtons to maintain a speed of 9.00 m/s. Find the power required per rider, assuming that each contributes equally.

The power required per rider is 742.5 W

Explanation:

Given;

force to be overcome, F = 165 Newtons

speed to be maintained, v = 9.00 m/s

Power = force x velocity

Power = 165 N x 9 m/s

Power = 1485 W

Power required per rider, assuming that each contributes equally;

Power per rider = ¹/₂ x 1485 W

Power per rider = 742.5 W

Therefore, the power required per rider, assuming that each contributes equally is 742.5 W

  the unit of the measure =

explanation:

  the property that is quantified by the energy needed per of material to raise the temperature by one.

  si unit of energy = joule (j)

  si unit of temperature = kelvin (k)

  si unit of mass of material = kilogram (kg)

the property that is quantified by the energy needed per of material to raise the temperature by one is called specific heat.

the unit of specific heat is
