Draw an acceleration-time graph on the grid below for the whole of the cyclists
journey. [4]
(e)
In reality the cyclist would not slow down with constant deceleration. This is because
the total resistive force acting on the cyclist consists of a constant frictional force of
8.0 N and an air resistance force which is proportional to the square of the cyclists
velocity.
(i) When the cyclist was travelling with maximum velocity, the total resistive force
acting was 165 N. Calculate the force of air resistance at this velocity.

.........................................................................................................................................................................................................
(ii) Hence calculate the total resistive force acting when the cyclist is moving at half
the maximum velocity.
