The altitude or height of the pole vaulter as she crosses the bar is 4.04 m.

<h3>What is the height of the pole vaulter?</h3>

The height of the pole vaulter is determined from the change in kinetic energy which is equal to the potential energy at that height.

  • Potential energy = Change in kinetic energy
  • mgh = m(v - u)²/2

h = (v - u)²/2g

h = (10 - 1.1)²/2 * 9.8

h = 4.04 m.

In conclusion, the height is determined from the potential energy at that height.

A particle is moving in a circle of diameter 5. calculate the distance covered and the displacement when it completes 3 revoluti
Mamont248 [21]

Total distance covered is 47.1 m whereas displacement is zero.

<h3>Calculation:</h3>

Given,

Diameter, d = 5 m

No. of revolutions = 3

Radius, r = 5/2 = 2.5 m

To find,

Distance =?

Displacement =?

Distance covered in one revolution = 2πr

                                                           

Put the values in this,

Distance = 2 × 3.14 × 2.5

               = 15.7 m

Total distance covered in 3 revolution = 3 × 31.4

                                                                = 47.1 m

Displacement is the change in the position of the object or the distance between the initial and final position.

After 3 revolutions the particle comes back to its initial position. Therefore, the displacement is zero.

Hence, the total distance covered in 3 resolutions is 47.1 m whereas displacement is zero.

A mountaintop is a height y above the level ground. A woman measures the angle of elevation of the
Kamila [148]
Refer to the diagram shown below.
We want to find y in terms of d, φ and θ.

By definition,
tan (\theta) =  \frac{y}{x} \\\\ tan( \phi) = \frac{y}{x-d}

Therefore
y = x tan(θ)                   (1)
y = (x - d) tan(φ)           (2)

Equate (1) and (2).
(x - d) \, tan(\phi) = x \, tan(\theta) \\ x[tan(\phi) - tan(\theta)] = d \, tan(\phi) \\ x= \frac{d tan(\phi)}{tan(\phi)-tan(\theta)}

From (1), obtain the required expression for y.

Answer:
y= \frac{d \, tan(\phi) \, tan(\theta)}{tan(\phi)-tan(\theta)}

In a circuit, the supplied voltage is 1.5 volts, and the resistor value is 3 ohms. What is the current in the circuit?
pogonyaev
Using Ohm's Law:

V = IR

Where V = Voltage in Volts, I = Current in Ampere, R = Resistance in Ohms

V = IR

1.5 = I * 3

1.5 = 3I

3*I = 1.5

I = 1.5/3

I = 0.50 A

Current in the Circuit is 0.50 Ampere.

Do atoms have mass ?
MArishka [77]
There are not enough electrons in atoms to affect the total mass, so the total mass is just the weight of the protons and neutrons.

a 2.0 kg ball is dropped from a height of 20 m onto a soft surface and rebounds to a height of 5.0 m . what is the magnitude of
Yuki888 [10]

Based on the data provided, the impulse of the floor on the ball is 59.4 Ns.

<h3>What is the impulse of the floor on the ball?</h3>

Using the equation of motion to determine the velocity at the end of the fall

  • v^2 = u^2 + 2gh

Where v is velocity at the end of fall

u is initial velocity = 0

g is acceleration due to gravity = 9.81 m/s^2

h is height = 20

  • Taking downward velocity as negative and up as positive

v^2 = 0 + 2 (9.81)(20)

v^2 = 392.4

v = - 19.8 m/s

The velocity, v after bouncing is calculated also:

u = 0

g = 9.81 m/s^2

h = 5.0 m

v^2 = 0 + 2(9.81)(5)

v^2 = 98.1

v = 9.904 m/s

  • Impulse = change in momentum
  • Impulse = m(v- u)

Impulse = 2.0 × (9.9 -(-19.8)

Impulse = 59.4 Ns

Therefore, the impulse of the floor on the ball is 59.4 Ns.
