If you sit on it, you push downward. The bicycle seat naturally pushes back up - if this wasn't the case, you would accelerate downward, due to the force of gravity.

How does a bicycle seat exert a force on a cyclist?

That'd be a quadricycle or a quadra bike or something like that. Maybe even a pedal car.


What force will the seat belt have to exert on the dummy in item 3 to hold the dummy in the seat?

The force that the seat belt must exert on the dummy depends on the mass of the dummy and the deceleration it experiences during a sudden stop or collision. This force can be calculated using Newton's second law, ( F = ma ), where ( m ) is the mass of the dummy and ( a ) is the deceleration. The seat belt must exert a force equal to or greater than the inertial force acting on the dummy to keep it securely in the seat. Additionally, factors such as the angle of the seat belt and the duration of the deceleration will also influence the required force.


Is the seat of a bicycle a simple machine?

Simple machines are things that change the direction or magnitude of a force. A bicycle saddle doesn't do that, so no.


If everything exerts a force why do you not get pulled by it?

The objects with bigger masses exert more pulling force. However, even though all the matter around us exert a force, their masses are too small for them to exert a 'feelable' force. But yes, they do exert a force, but its negligible.


What is the name of the force you exert towards you?

The force you exert towards yourself is called self-force or self-interaction force.


The name of the force you exert on a sponge when you squeeze it is called?

The force you exert on a sponge when you squeeze it is called compression force.


What is The force that you exert on a lever called?

The force that you exert on a lever can be called the effort force. The lever has three parts. They are: the fulcrum, the load, and the effort force. This can also be classified as the input force. The force that you exert to perform a task is known as the input force.


Do you exert more force when you are closer to the fulcrum?

do you exert more force when you are further from the fulcrum


When you pull on a window shade you exert what?

You exert force when you pull on anything.


What force do the sun and the moon exert on the earth?

They exert Gravitational Force on each other. It is a force which is directly proportional to Mass of the object


What happens to the distance over which you exert your force?

The amount of force you exert remains the same, but the distance over which you exert the force can affect the work done. If you exert a force over a longer distance, you may do more work because the force acts over a greater distance. If the distance over which you exert the force is shorter, the work done may be less.


Suppose that you fall on a sidewalk while rollerblading Do you exert a force on the sidewalk Does the sidewalk exert a force on you Which of these forces may injure you?

Both, you exert a force onto the sidewalk, and the sidewalk "pushes back" with an equal, but opposite force.
