, 2. A cyclist and her cycle have a combined mass of 60 kg. The cyclist is moving along a
straight horizontal road and is working at a constant rate of 200 W.
When she has travelled a distance x metres, her speed is v m s–1 and the magnitude of the
resistance to motion is 3v2 N.
dv 200 − 3v3
(a) Show that dx = 60v2
(4)
The distance travelled by the cyclist as her speed increases from 2 m s–1 to 4 m s–
1
is D metres.
(b) Find the exact value of D
