A hopper jumps straight up to a height of 1.3 m. With what velocity did he leave the floor

Physics
1 answer:
xxMikexx [17]1 year ago
3 0

The velocity with which the jumper leaves the floor is 5.1 m/s.

<h3>What is the initial velocity of the jumper?</h3>

The initial velocity of the jumper or the velocity with which the jumper leaves the floor is calculated by applying the principle of conservation of energy as shown below.

Kinetic energy of the jumper at the floor = Potential energy of the jumper at the maximum height

¹/₂mv² = mgh

v² = 2gh

v = √2gh

where;

  • v is the initial velocity of the jumper on the floor
  • h is the maximum height reached by the jumper
  • g is acceleration due to gravity

v = √(2 x 9.8 x 1.3)

v = 5.1 m/s

Part b suppose the magnitude of the gravitational force between two spherical objects is 2000 n when they are 100 km apart. what
kobusy [5.1K]
<span>b) The force with a distance of 150 km is 889 N c) The force with a distance of 50 km is 8000 N This question looks like a mixture of a question and a critique of a previous answer. I'll attempt to address the original question. Since the radius of the spherical objects isn't mentioned anywhere, I will assume that the distance from the center of each spherical object is what's being given. The gravitational force between two masses is given as F = (G M1 M2)/r^2 where F = Force G = gravitational constant M1 = Mass 1 M2 = Mass 2 r = distance between center of masses for the two masses. So with a r value of 100 km, we have a force of 2000 Newtons. If we change the distance to 150 km, that increases the distance by a factor of 1.5 and since the force varies with the inverse square, we get the original force divided by 2.25. And 2000 / 2.25 = 888.88888.... when rounded to 3 digits gives us 889. Looking at what looks like an answer of 890 in the question is explainable as someone rounding incorrectly to 2 significant digits. If the distance is changed to 50 km from the original 100 km, then you have half the distance (50/100 = 0.5) and the squaring will give you a new divisor of 0.25, and 2000 / 0.25 = 8000. So the force increases to 8000 Newtons.</span>

A car traveling at 27.4 m/s hits a bridge abutment. A passenger in the car, who has a mass of 65.0 kg, moves forward a distance
Minchanka [31]

Answer:

F=43570.9N

Explanation:

We can calculate the acceleration experimented by the passenger using the formula v_f^2=v_i^2+2ad, taking the initial direction of movement as the positive direction and considering it comes to a rest:

a=\frac{v_f^2-v_i^2}{2d}=\frac{-v_i^2}{2d}

Then we use Newton's 2nd Law to calculate the force the passenger of mass m experimented to have this acceleration:

F=ma=\frac{-mv_i^2}{2d}

Which for our values is:

F=\frac{-(65kg)(27.4m/s)^2}{2(0.56m)}=43570.9N

The difference in particle size of the soil constituents determine its texture.​
Schach [20]

Answer:Soil texture depends on the size of individual soil particles and is determined by the relative proportions of particle sizes that make up the soil. The texture affects the amount of water that can be absorbed for use by plants and animals.
