A stuntwoman is going to attempt a jump across a canyon that is 77 m wide. The ramp on the far side of the canyon is 25 m lower

than the ramp from which she will leave. The takeoff ramp is built with a 15º angle from horizontal. If the stuntwoman leaves the ramp with a velocity of 28 m/s, will she make the jump? Why?

Answer:

  She will make the jump.

Explanation:

We have equation of motion , s= ut+\frac{1}{2} at^2, s is the displacement, u is the initial velocity, a is the acceleration and t is the time.

First we will consider horizontal motion of stunt women

   Displacement = 77 m, Initial velocity = 28 cos 15 = 27.05 m/s, acceleration = 0

Substituting

   77= 27.05t+\frac{1}{2} *0*t^2\\ \\ t=77/27.05=2.85 seconds

So she will cover 77 m in 2.85 seconds

 Now considering vertical motion, up direction as positive

    Initial velocity = 28 sin 15 = 7.25 m/s, acceleration =acceleration due to gravity = -9.8 m/s^2, time = 2.85

    Substituting

           s=7.25*2.85-\frac{1}{2}*9.8*2.85^2=20.69-39.80 =-10.11 m

  So at time 2.85 stunt women is 10.11 m below from starting position, far side is 25 m lower. So she will be at higher position.

  So she will make the jump.

find the time taken, if the speed of a train increased from 72 km/hr to 90 km/hr for 234 km. leave your answer in seconds
Airida [17]

Answer:

Time taken = 10400 s

Explanation:

Given:

Initial speed of the train, u=72\textrm{ km/h}=72\times \frac{5}{18}=20\textrm{ m/s}

Final speed of the train, v=90\textrm{ km/h}=90\times \frac{5}{18}=25\textrm{ m/s}

Displacement of the train, S=234\textrm{ km}=234\times 1000=234000\textrm{ m}

Using Newton's equation of motion,

v - u = at\\a=\frac{v-u}{t}

Now, using Newton's equation of motion for displacement,

v^{2}-u^{2}=2aS

Now, plug in the value of a=\frac{v-u}{t} in the above equation. This gives,

v^{2}-u^{2}=2\times \frac{v-u}{t}\times S\\(v+u)(v-u)=\frac{2(v-u)S}{t}\\t=\frac{2(v-u)S}{(v+u)(v-u)}\\t=\frac{2S}{v+u}

Now, plug in 234000 m for S, 25 m/s for v and 20 m/s for u. Solve for t.

t=\frac{2S}{v+u}\\t=\frac{2\times 234000}{25+20}\\t=\frac{468000}{45}=10400\textrm{ s}

Therefore, the time taken by the train is 10400 s.

9. Una jeringa contiene cloro gaseoso, que ocupa un volumen de 95 mL a una presión de 0,96 atm. ¿Qué presión debemos ejercer en
masha68 [24]

Answer:

2.61 atm

Ley de Boyle

Explanation:

P_1 = Presión inicial = 0.96 atm

P_2 = Presión final

V_1 = Volumen inicial = 95 mL

V_2 = Volumen final = 35 mL

En este problema usaremos la ley de Boyle.

\dfrac{P_1}{P_2}=\dfrac{V_2}{V_1}\\\Rightarrow P_2=\dfrac{P_1V_1}{V_2}\\\Rightarrow P_2=\dfrac{0.96\times 95}{35}\\\Rightarrow P_1=2.61\ \text{atm}

La presión ejercida sobre el émbolo para reducir su volumen es de 2.61 atm.

The pages of a book are numbered 1 to 200 and each
never [62]

Answer:

10.4mm

Explanation:

2 pages = 1 leaf

200 pages = 100 leaves

100 × 0.10 = 10 mm thickness

Total thickness = 2(0.20) +10 = 0.4+10 = 10.4mm
