Question

You are riding a bicycle. If you apply a forward force of 150 N, and you and the bicycle have a combined mass of 90 kg, what will be the forward acceleration of the bicycle Assume there is no friction)

A. 1.67 m/s2
B. 1.85 m/s2 m
C. 0.60 m/s2
D. 3.37 m/s2​

Answer 1

A. 1.67 m/s2

Step-by-step explanation:

F = m*a, so a = F/m = 150/90 ≈ 1.67
`m/s^2`

Answer 2

Hello There!!

Given,

Force(F) = 150N

Mass(m) = 90kg

To Find,

Acceleration(a) = ?

We know,

F= m×a

`150 = 90 * \text{a} \\ \\ \text{a} = (150)/(90) \\ \fbox{cancelling by 3} \\ \\ \text{ a} = \cancel (150)/(90) \\ \\ \text{ a} = (5)/(3) = 1.67 \text{m/s} {}^(2)`

`\therefore \text{Option A= 1.67 m/s² is the correct answer}`

Hope this helps
