If a skydiver jumps out of a plane horizontally (in other words with no initial vertical velocity), then what will her vertical

speed be after having fallen a vertical distance of 50.8m if you neglect air resistance over that distance?

The final vertical velocity of the skydiver at 50.8 m of fall is 31.56 m/s.

<h3>Time of motion of the girl</h3>

The time of motion of the girl is calculated as follows;

h = vt + ¹/₂gt²

where;

  • v is initial vertical velocity = 0
  • t is time of motion
  • g is acceleration due to gravity

Substitute the given parameters and solve for time of motion;

50.8 = 0 + ¹/₂(9.8)t²

2(50.8) = 9.8t²

101.6 = 9.8t²

t² = 101.6/9.8

t² = 10.367

t = √10.367

t = 3.22 seconds

<h3>Final vertical velocity of the skydiver</h3>

vf = vi + gt

where;

vi is the initial vertical velocity = 0

vf = 0 + 9.8(3.22)

vf = 31.56 m/s

Thus, the final vertical velocity of the skydiver at 50.8 m of fall is 31.56 m/s.

In a game of pool, the cue ball moves at a speed of 2 m/s toward the eight ball. When the cue ball hits the eight ball, the cue
agasfer [191]

Answer:

a)  p₀ = 1.2 kg m / s,  b) p_f = 1.2 kg m / s,  c)   θ = 12.36, d)  v_{2f} = 1.278 m/s

Explanation:

a system formed by the two balls, which are isolated and the forces during the collision are internal, therefore the moment is conserved

a) the initial impulse is

        p₀ = m v₁₀ + 0

        p₀ = 0.6 2

        p₀ = 1.2 kg m / s

b) as the system is isolated, the moment is conserved so

       p_f = 1.2 kg m / s

we define a reference system where the x-axis coincides with the initial movement of the cue ball

we write the final moment for each axis

X axis

        p₀ₓ = 1.2 kg m / s

        p_{fx} = m v1f cos 20 + m v2f cos θ

        p₀ = p_f

       1.2 = 0.6 (-0.8) cos 20+ 0.6 v_{2f} cos θ

        1.2482 = v_{2f} cos θ

Y axis  

       p_{oy} = 0

       p_{fy} = m v_{1f} sin 20 + m v_{2f} cos θ

       0 = 0.6 (-0.8) sin 20 + 0.6 v_{2f} sin θ

       0.2736 = v_{2f} sin θ

we write our system of equations

        0.2736 = v_{2f} sin θ

        1.2482 = v_{2f} cos θ

divide to solve

        0.219 = tan θ

         θ = tan⁻¹ 0.21919

         θ = 12.36

let's look for speed

           0.2736 = v_{2f} sin θ

            v_{2f} = 0.2736 / sin 12.36

           v_{2f} = 1.278 m / s

A pan of ice is placed over a flame.
AveGali [126]
A. The molecules start packed together very tightly in a solid. Then when it turns to water, the molecules can move around each other freely, but still contained. When water turns to vapor, the molecules are going crazy moving around. They are not contained at all and bounce of of each other freely.

b. The temperature rises. (ice turns to water at 33 degrees and water turns to vapor at 212 degrees)

Bales of hay of 40 lbf move up a conveyor set at 30° angle to the ground. If the hay bales are moving at 1.5 ft/sec, determine t
jekas [21]

Answer:

The power required to move each bale is 30 lbf.ft/sec.

Explanation:

F= 40lbf * sin (30º)

F=20lbf

P= F*v

P=20 lbf * 1.5 ft/sec

P= 30 lbf.ft/sec
