A motorcycle daredevil plans to ride up a 2.0-m-high, 20ramp, sail across a 10-m-wide pool filled with hungry crocodiles, and land at ground level on the other side. He has done this stunt many times and approaches it with confidence. Unfortunately, the motorcycle engine dies just as he starts up the ramp. He is going 11m/sat that instant, and the rolling friction of his rubber tires (coefficient 0.02) is not negligible. Does he survive, or does he become crocodile food? Justify your answer by calculating the distance he travels through the air after leaving the end of the ramp.

Short Answer

Expert verified

The range8.56m is less than the width of the pool, the biker will land on the pool and hence, will not survive.

Step by step solution

01

Given Information

We know that the angle of inclination is =20, height of the inclination is h=2.0m, the coefficient of friction between the bike tire and the inclination surface is =0.02, width of the pool is d=10.0m, acceleration due to gravity g=9.81m/s2 and the initial speed of the bike is vmtight>i=11.0m/s. We have to calculate the distance of landing position from the end of inclination.

02

Apply the equation of force motion

Let's consider the information given in the question:

The equation force motion is given as

ma=mgsin+Ff

Where,

Ffis the friction force

ma=mgsin+mgcos

ma=mg(sin+cos

a=g(sin+cos)

03

Substitute the values 

Substitute the values

a=(9.8m/s2)(sin200+(0.02)cos200)

a=(9.8m/s2)(0.36)

a=3.54m/s2

Therefore, the length of the ramp is given as,

sin=hL

Where,

his the height=2m

Lis the length of the ramp

So,

L=hSin

L=2mSin200

L=5.85m

04

Apply the equation of motion

Let's consider the equation of motion:

v2=u2+2(-a)L

where,

vis the initial velocity

uis the instant velocity

v2=u2-2al

role="math" localid="1648361146542" v2=(11m/s)2-2(3.54m/s2)(5.85m)

role="math" localid="1648361542478" v2=79.58m2/s2

role="math" localid="1648361565005" v=79.58m2/s2

role="math" localid="1648361593999" v=8.92m/s

05

Calculate the initial velocity of two component

The length of the pool is 10m.

Calculate the initial velocity has two components along the horizontal direction and the vertical direction as given as,

vx=vcos200

vx=(8.92m/s)cos200

vx=8.38m/s

Compute for vy

vy=vsin200

vy=(8.92m/s)sin200

vy=3.05

Therefore, the equation along the vertical direction is given as:

y=y0+uyt+12ayt2

0=2m+(3.05m/s)t129.8m/s2t2

role="math" localid="1648363560106" 4.9m/s2t2+(3.05m/s)t+2m=0

On solving we get,

t=1.02

06

Calculate the position of the motor cycle

The position of the motorcycle during the projectile time is given as,

x=uxt

x=(8.38m/s)(1.02s)

x=8.547

Here we see that the distance or position of the motorcycle is less than the length of the pool. So, the motorcycle cannot cross the pool and he falls into the pool.

07

Final Answer 

The distance or position of the motorcycle is 8.54m and it is less than the length of the pool. So, the motorcycle cannot cross the pool and he falls into the pool

The physics of circular motion sets an upper limit to the speed of human walking. (If you need to go faster, your gait changes from a walk to a run.) If you take a few steps and watch
what鈥檚 happening, you鈥檒l see that your body pivots in circular motion over your forward foot as you bring your rear foot forward for the next step. As you do so, the normal force of the
ground on your foot decreases and your body tries to 鈥渓ift off鈥 from the ground.
