Q|C A 60.0-kg person bends his knees and then jumps straight up. After his feet leave the floor, his motion is unaffected by air

resistance and his center of mass rises by a maximum of 15.0cm . Model the floor as completely solid and motionless. (a) Does the floor impart impulse to the person?

Yes, the floor will impart impulse to the person. Since the floor exert a force, hence the person can experience the change in momentum.

<h3>What is Impulse?</h3>
  • In classical mechanics, the integral of a force, F, over the time period over which it acts, t, is known as the impulse (abbreviated J or Imp).
  • Impulse is a vector quantity because force is one as well. When an item receives an impulse, its linear momentum also changes in the opposite direction in an analogous vector.
  • The kilogram meter per second (kg m/s), which is dimensionally identical to the kilogram second (Ns), is the SI unit for momentum.

Mass of the person given = 60kg

Height = 15 cm = 0.15m

Yes, the floor will impart impulse to the person. Since the floor exert a force, hence the person can experience the change in momentum.

A ball traveling with an initial momentum of 4.5 kgm/s bounces off a wall and comes back in the opposite direction with a moment
irinina [24]

Answer:

-7.5 kg m/s

Explanation:

Initial momentum (p1) = 4.5 kg m/s

final momentum (p2) = -3.5 kg m/s

We have to find out the change in momentum , As linear momentum is a vector quantity. So, we have to use the vector form to solve the momentum change . Means we have to take the sign of momentum also.

Change in momentum = Final momentum - initial momentum

So,

Change in momentum = p2 - p1

Insert values from question,

Change in momentum = -3.5 kg m/s - 4 kg m/s

So, change in momentum = -7.5 kg m/s

Consider an object with s=12cm that produces an image with s′=15cm. Note that whenever you are working with a physical object, t
Leni [432]

A. 6.67 cm

The focal length of the lens can be found by using the lens equation:

\frac{1}{f}=\frac{1}{s}+\frac{1}{s'}

where we have

f = focal length

s = 12 cm is the distance of the object from the lens

s' = 15 cm is the distance of the image from the lens

Solving the equation for f, we find

\frac{1}{f}=\frac{1}{12 cm}+\frac{1}{15 cm}=0.15 cm^{-1}\\f=\frac{1}{0.15 cm^{-1}}=6.67 cm

B. Converging

According to sign convention for lenses, we have:

- Converging (convex) lenses have focal length with positive sign

- Diverging (concave) lenses have focal length with negative sign

In this case, the focal length of the lens is positive, so the lens is a converging lens.

C. -1.25

The magnification of the lens is given by

M=-\frac{s'}{s}

where

s' = 15 cm is the distance of the image from the lens

s = 12 cm is the distance of the object from the lens

Substituting into the equation, we find

M=-\frac{15 cm}{12 cm}=-1.25

D. Real and inverted

The magnification equation can be also rewritten as

M=\frac{y'}{y}

where

y' is the size of the image

y is the size of the object

Re-arranging it, we have

y'=My

Since in this case M is negative, it means that y' has opposite sign compared to y: this means that the image is inverted.

Also, the sign of s' tells us if the image is real of virtual. In fact:

- s' is positive: image is real

- s' is negative: image is virtual

In this case, s' is positive, so the image is real.

E. Virtual

In this case, the magnification is 5/9, so we have

M=\frac{5}{9}=-\frac{s'}{s}

which can be rewritten as

s'=-M s = -\frac{5}{9}s

which means that s' has opposite sign than s: therefore, the image is virtual.

F. 12.0 cm

From the magnification equation, we can write

s'=-Ms

and then we can substitute it into the lens equation:

\frac{1}{f}=\frac{1}{s}+\frac{1}{s'}\\\frac{1}{f}=\frac{1}{s}+\frac{1}{-Ms}

and we can solve for s:

\frac{1}{f}=\frac{M-1}{Ms}\\f=\frac{Ms}{M-1}\\s=\frac{f(M-1)}{M}=\frac{(-15 cm)(\frac{5}{9}-1}{\frac{5}{9}}=12.0 cm

G. -6.67 cm

Now the image distance can be directly found by using again the magnification equation:

s'=-Ms=-\frac{5}{9}(12.0 cm)=-6.67 cm

And the sign of s' (negative) also tells us that the image is virtual.

H. -24.0 cm

In this case, the image is twice as tall as the object, so the magnification is

M = 2

and the distance of the image from the lens is

s' = -24 cm

The problem is asking us for the image distance: however, this is already given by the problem,

s' = -24 cm

so, this is the answer. And the fact that its sign is negative tells us that the image is virtual.
