In a high school swim competition, a student takes 1.6 s to complete 1.5 somersaults. Determine the average angular speed of the
Rufina [12.5K]

Answer:

The  angular speed is w = 5.89 \ rad/s

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

    The time taken is  t = 1.6 s

    The number of somersaults  is n  =  1.5

The total angular displacement during the somersault is mathematically represented as

         \theta  =  n *  2 *  \pi

substituting values

        \theta  =  1.5 *  2 *  3.142

       \theta  = 9.426 \ rad

 The angular speed is mathematically represented as

         w =  \frac{\theta }{t}

substituting values

         w =  \frac{9.426}{1.6}

          w = 5.89 \ rad/s

A 2.1 kg block is dropped from rest from a height of 5.5 m above the top of the spring. When the block is momentarily at rest, t
ella [17]

Answer:

The speed of the block is 8.2 m/s

Explanation:

Given;

mass of block, m = 2.1 kg

height above the top of the spring, h = 5.5 m

First, we determine the spring constant based on the principle of conservation of potential energy

¹/₂Kx² = mg(h +x)

¹/₂K(0.25)² = 2.1 x 9.8(5.5 +0.25)

0.03125K = 118.335

K = 118.335 / 0.03125

K = 3786.72 N/m

Total energy stored in the block at rest is only potential energy given as:

E = U = mgh

U = 2.1 x 9.8 x 5.5 = 113.19 J

Work done in compressing the spring to 15.0 cm:

W = ¹/₂Kx² = ¹/₂ (3786.72)(0.15)² = 42.6 J

This is equal to elastic potential energy stored in the spring,

Then, kinetic energy of the spring is given as:

K.E = E - W

K.E = 113.19 J - 42.6 J

K.E = 70.59 J

To determine the speed of the block due to this energy:

KE =  ¹/₂mv²

70.59 =  ¹/₂ x 2.1 x v²

70.59 = 1.05v²

v² = 70.59 / 1.05

v² = 67.229

v = √67.229

v = 8.2 m/s
