In this problem you will determine the amount of force a rider needs to exert on a bicycle pedal to accelerate at a rate of 1.0 m/s^2.

(c) Now consider the system consisting of the rear wheel. The system includes the sprocket (gear wheel) attached to it. Assume that the rear sprocket has a radius of 2.5 cm and neglible mass compared to the wheel. Assume that the rear wheel has the same mass, radius, and moment of inertia as the front wheel. The sprocket is driven by the bicycle chain. Assume that the tension in the upper portion of the bicycle chain is nonzero, neglect the tension in the lower portion of the chain. Write a free-body diagram for the system. By considering the torques on the system, find the tension in the chain.

(d) Now consider the system consisting of the crank, which means the front sprocket, and the pedals. The system is mounted on a frictionless axle. Assume that the pedals are a distance of 17 cm from the crack axle, that the front sprocket has a radius of 8.0 cm. Assume that the entire crank assembly has a moment of inertia 2.5 x 10^-2 kg m^2. Assume that the bike pedals are oriented horizontally, and that the rider is pushing straight downward on the forward pedal with a force F, with no force on the back pedal. Write a free-body diagram for the system. By considering the torques on the system, find the force F. Does your answer change if we neglect the moment of inertia of the crank?

(e) Is this a realistic force for a rider to exert on a bike pedal? If not, estimate the maximum acceleration you think is realistic for a bicycle.

As your spaceship coasts toward Mars, you need to move a heavy load of 1200 kg along a hallway of the spacecraft that has a 90 degree right turn, without touching the walls, floor, or ceiling, by working remotely, using devices attached to the load that can be programmmed to fire blasts of compressed air for up to 1.0 s in any desired direction. During a blast the load is subjected to a force of 20 N. The center of the load must move 2 m along the first section of the hallway, starting at rest. Let the starting point be <0,0,0> m, with the first section ending at <4,3,0> m. Using just three blasts of compressed air, choose the times when these blasts should be scheduled, their durations, and their directions. How long does it take to complete the entire move?

I know it is not 24 s a similiar or the same question was post at another time and it is wrong. I came up with 13 minutes roughly. If you could be do your best to answer this question, the question is from matter & interactions 4th edition modern mechanics chapter 2. This question was within the usage of the momentum principle section and although you need a grasp of this principle a d = \v\ * t can be used to calculate it I believe. I used a small window of acceleration of 0.5s and a total of 1.0s acceleration at the turn two positions .5s each one ending another starting to get the one blast necessary then .5 seconds of deacceleration at the 4m interval end.  

Hope someone really answer this thank you.

By studying seismic measurements and geological evidence, scientists have made the following obser
vations about earthquakes. i. Small tremors (magnitude below 1.0 on the Richter scale) are almost constantly oc
curing on every continent.
ii. The number of earthquakes with magnitude at least 3.0 on the Richter scale averages
200,000 per year, worldwide.
iii. Based on geological evidence, the number of major earthquakes (magnitude> 7.0 on
the Richter scale) has averaged 20 per year, and this average rate has not changed over
the last 10,000 years.
iv. The number of earthquakes occurring each year is independent of the number that
occurred in any previous year.
v. The magnitude of an earthquake is inversely proportional to the logarithm of the
frequency that earthquakes of at least that magnitude occur. In other words, let
X(m) denote the expected number of earthquakes per year with magnitude greater
than or equal to m. Then logX(m) is proportional to m.
(a) Explain why it is reasonable to use a Poisson random variable to model the number of major
earthquakes occurring in any given period of time? Indicate which of the above observations
support your explaination.
(b) Let N(t) be a Poisson random variable that models the number of major earthquakes (magnitude
> 7.0) that will occur in the next t years. Give the probability mass function for N(t).
(c) Calculate the expected value and standard deviation for N(3).
(d) Calculate the probability that there will be at least 3 earthquakes in the next month.

5. Today Van de Graaff accelerators sometimes serve as “injectors” for other types of accelerators that then further increase the energy of the particles. Consider a Van de Graaff accelerator that is being used to accelerate protons. The high voltage terminal (metal sphere) of the Van de Graff is charged using a rubberized belt that is 30 cm wide and travels at a velocity of 20 m/s. Charge is sprayed onto the belt near the roller at the low voltage end and removed from the belt near the upper roller inside the high voltage terminal. The belt is given sufficient surface charge density at the lower roller to cause an electric field of 1.0 MV/m (i.e. approaching the breakdown field of air at atmospheric pressure which is ~ 3 MV/m) on each side of the belt. (a) What is the charging current delivered to the high voltage terminal in µA? Suppose we would like to accelerate the protons to an energy of 3 MeV. Take the radius of the spherical high voltage terminal to be the such that the electric field at the surface of the sphere just below the breakdown field of air (b) How long does it take to charge the high voltage terminal of the Van de Graaff from zero volts to 3 MV? The beam of 3 MeV protons is focused onto a lithium target. The beam is equivalent to a current of 5 µA. (c) At what rate do protons strike the target? (d) At what rate is energy (heat) produced in the target? (e) Would you consider the Van de Graaff a ‘source of emf ? Why or why not?

Iconic memory is a type of memory that holds visual information for about half a second (0.5 seconds). To demonstrate this type of memory, participants were shown three rows of four letters for 50 milliseconds. They were then asked to recall as many letters as possible, with a 0-, 0.5-, or 1.0-second delay before responding. Researchers hypothesized that longer delays would result in poorer recall. The number of letters correctly recalled is given in the table.
