Answer:
It is easier to stop the bicycle moving at a lower velocity because it will require a <em>smaller force</em> to stop it when compared to a bicycle with a higher velocity that needs a<em> bigger force.</em>
Explanation:
The question above is related to "Newton's Law of Motion." According to the <em>Third Law of Motion</em>, whenever an object exerts a force on another object <em>(action force)</em>, an equal force is exerted against it. This force is of the same magnitude but opposite direction.
When it comes to moving bicycles, the force that stops their movement is called "friction." Applying the law of motion, the higher the speed, the higher the force<em> </em>that is needed to stop it while the lower the speed, the lower the force<em> </em>that is needed to stop it.
Answer:
250 J
Explanation:
Apply the formula:
K = 1/2.m.v²
K = 1/2.5.10²
K = 1/2.5.100
K = 5.50
K = 250 Joules
But, remember that if the speed is accelerating or not, if it is, then we need to know the point in time that the question is asking for the Kinetic Energy.
In this case, I think it is just a constant speed.
Forces that are equal in size but opposite in direction and do not cause a change in an object's movement are called balanced forces.
forces that aren't equal in size and do cause a change in movement (what it seems like you're asking for) are called UNBALANCED FORCES
so answer (in case that wasn't clear, as I'm tired) : unbalanced forces
