Question

You are riding a bicycle. You apply a forward force of 100 N, and you and the

bicycle have a combined mass of 80 kg. What is the acceleration of the
bicycle?
A. 1.5 m/s2
B. 1.8 m/s2
C. 1.25 m/s2
O D. 0.8 m/s2
SURN

Answer 1

1.25 m/s²

Step-by-step explanation:

The acceleration of an object given it's mass and the force acting on it can be found by using the formula

`a = (f)/(m) \\`

f is the force

m is the mass

From the question we have

`a = (100)/(80) = (5)/(4) \\`

We have the final answer as

1.25 m/s²

Hope this helps you
