Answer:

P = 1.45 hp or 1.94kW

Explanation:

Given:

v = 2.5m/s

uk = 0.06

m = 60kg

Fk = uk*m*g*fsin(15)

Fk = 0.06*85*9.81*60*sin(15)

Fk = 776.15 N

Power=force*speed

P = F*v

P = 776.15N*2.5m/s

P = 1940.36 W

1 Horsepower = 0.7457 Kilowatts

P = 1.45 hp

A hopper jumps straight up to a height of 1.3 m. With what velocity did he leave the floor
xxMikexx [17]

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

A 25kg box fell 200m with an acceleration of 5 m/s2. with what force did it hit the floor when it landed?
Marizza181 [45]
According to Newton's Second Law of motion, the net force acting on the object is equal to its mass multiplied by its acceleration. In formula, it is written as

Net Force =mass * acceleration
Net force = 25 kg * 5m/s^2
Net force = 125 Newtons
