(4%) Problem 22: A cyclist, starting from rest, applies a horizontal force of $F = 417$ N
to his bicycle, moving across flat ground for a distance of $d_{flat} = 348$ m before
encountering a hill making an angle of $\theta = 23.1^\circ$ with respect to the horizontal. The bicycle
and rider have a combined mass of $m = 86.4$ kg. Ignore air resistance and other losses due
to friction.
33% Part (a) How much work, in joules, did the rider do before reaching the hill?
$W = 145116$
$W = 145100$ Correct!
33% Part (b) What is the bicycle's speed, in meters per second, just before the hill?
$v = 2375.10$
$v = 2375$ X Attempts Remain
33% Part (c) If the cyclist starts coasting at the bottom of the hill, what distance, in meters, does the bike travel up the incline?
$d_{hill} = $ m
