Gregg Reid of Atlanta, Georgia, built a motorcycle that is over 4.5 m
long and has a mass of 235 kg. The force that holds Reid and his motor
cycle in a circular path with a radius 25.0 m is 1850 N. What is Reid’s
tangential speed? Assume Reid’s mass is 72 kg.

Respuesta :

With Georgia's motorcycle at  over 4.5 m long and having a mass of 235 kg, Reid’s tangential speed is mathematically given as

vt=12.4m/s

What is Reid’s tangential speed?

Generally, the equation for the Conservation of momentum  is mathematically given as

mn=m1+m2

Therefore

mn=235+72

mn=307

Therefore

Fc=mn*a

THerefore

[tex]vt=\sqrt{\frac{rFc}{mn}}\\\\vt=\sqrt{\frac{25*1850}{307}}[/tex]

vt=12.4m/s

In conclusion, The tangential  speed is

vt=12.4m/s
