Question

Data for one stage of the 2004 Tour de France show that Lance Armstrong’s average speed was 15 m/s, and that keeping Lance and his bike moving at this zippy pace required a power of 450 W. What was the average forward force keeping Lance and his bike moving forward? To put this in perspective, compute what mass would have this weight.

Step 1

Given: Power = 450 W, Velocity = 15 m/s Using the formula for power: Power = Force x Velocity 450 = Force x 15 Force = 450 / 15 Force = 30 N Show more…
