A man weighing 70 kg, riding a motorbike weighing 230 kg at 54 km hr^(-I), accelerates at Ims^(-2) for 10 s when suddenly a child rushes into the road. The rider manages to apply brakes screeching to bring his vehicle to a halt in 3 s, just in time to save the child. What should have been the average retarding force on the vehicle ?

Answer»

`1.5N`
`2.5N`
`3.5`
`4.5N`

Solution :Here `u = 54xx =(5)/(18)= 15 m//s`
:. velocity attained in 10 s is given by
`upsilon = u + at impliesupsilon = 15 + 1 xx 10 = 25 m//s`
For retarded motion
`u. = 25 m//s, upsilon = 0,t = 3s`
`:.upsilon = u. + a. timplies 0= 25+ a. xx 3`
`a. =(-25)/(3)m//s^(2)`
:.Retarding force F = (M+ m) RETARDATION
`=300xx(25)/(3) =2.5xx10^(3)N`
So correct choice is (E) as NONE of the choices given in QUESTION is correct.
