A 90kg bicycle and rider are traveling at 3m/s then start coasting down a hill. While coasting, the rider sees a branch lying across the trail right where the trail flattens out and skids to a stop. (Assume no friction until the rider starts breaking.)
Required:
a. If the rider coasted 30m, and descended 9m in the process, what is his speed when he starts breaking?
b. How much heat does the braking generate?
c. If the specific heat of the tire's rubber is 2000J/kg K, 50g of tire are in thermal contact with the ground and 40% of the heat generated goes into the tire, how much does the tire heat up?
d. If it is not an emergency, why might pulsing your braking (compressing and releasing the brake several times while stopping) help prolong the life of your brakes?

The pressure increases by 1.0 x 104 n/m^2 for every meter of depth beneath the surface of the ocean. at what depth does the volume of a pyrex (bulk modulus 2.6 x 1010n/m^2) glass cube, 9.8 x 10^−2m on an edge at the ocean's surface, decrease by 7.5 x 10−10m^3? explain the formula beyond this point: p=1.0x10^4, b=2.6x10^10, l=9.8x10^−2, delta v=7.5x10^−10. at some point l needs to be cubed. why p is divided by delta v?

Light from two different sources are incident upon the same side of a polarizing filter. light from one source is polarized with total intensity ip, while light from the other source is unpolarized with total intensity iu. as you rotate the polarizing filter through 360 degrees, the intensity of the transmitted light on the other side varies by a factor of 9. what is the relative intensity of the initial polarized source to the unpolarized source, or ip/iu?
