While riding a stationary bike, an Olympic cyclist can produce 750 Watts of power. If the cyclist can keep this up for 10 seconds, how much work is done in Joules?

technology is the application of the knowledge gained by science.

initial speed when it is dropped is 150 ft/s

now at the same moment the acceleration due to gravity is perpendicular to its velocity

so as we know that

now we have centripetal acceleration a = 32 ft/s^2 as its perpendicular to velocity

while tangential acceleration at the same moment will be zero

so

now radius of curvature is given as

so the radius of curvature just after it is dropped is 703.125 ft
