MOTION GRAPH AND FORMULA PRACTICE Tom cycles to school each morning along a straight flat road.

The graph shows his speed for the first 18 seconds of his journey to school.

(a) During the first 8 seconds of the journey, Tom's acceleration was constant.
1. How can you tell this from the graph? Because the line is a straight line, because the line is upward on the graph, this is positive acceleration
2. Calculate his acceleration during this 8 s period.
You must show how you work out your answer, including any equation used.
acceleration =
3. In the first 8 seconds, Tom travelled about 25.5 m.
Describe how this could be worked out using the graph.

(b) Tom and his bicycle have a combined mass of 60 kg.
1. Calculate the total kinetic energy of Tom and his bicycle after 10 s.
You must show how you work out your answer and any equation used.
kinetic energy =
2. On another morning, Tom reaches a speed of 1.5 m/s after only 1 second of his journey.
Calculate the average force needed for Tom to reach this speed after 1 second.
You must show how you worked out your answer, including any equation used.
force =

Equations:
a=Vf-Vi/t (m/s2)
F=m*a (N)
s=d/t (m/s)
d= s * t (m)
KE=1/2m*v2 (J)

The ratio of lift to drag l/d for a wing or airfoil is an important aerodynamic parameter, indeed, it is a direct measure of the aerodynamic efficiency of the wing. if a wing is pitched through a range of angle of attack, l/d first increases, then goes through a maximum, and then decreases. consider an infinite wing with an naca 2412 airfoil. estimate the maximum value of l/d. assume that the reynolds number is 9x10^6.
