A 60 kg man jumps down from a 0.8 m table. What is the speed when he
Rom4ik [11]

Answer: Speed = 4 m/s

Explanation:

The parameters given are

Mass M = 60 kg

Height h = 0.8 m

Acceleration due to gravity g= 10 m/s2

Before the man jumps, he will be experiencing potential energy at the top of the table.

P.E = mgh

Substitute all the parameters into the formula

P.E = 60 × 9.8 × 0.8

P.E = 470.4 J

As he jumped from the table and hit the ground, the whole P.E will be converted to kinetic energy according to conservative of energy.

When hitting the ground,

K.E = P.E

Where K.E = 1/2mv^2

Substitute m and 470.4 into the formula

470.4 = 1/2 × 60 × V^2

V^2 = 470.4/30

V^2 = 15.68

V = square root (15.68)

V = 3.959 m/s

Therefore, the speed of the man when hitting the ground is approximately 4 m/s

A certain thin lens is made of glass with refraction index ????lens=1.500. In air, where the index of refraction is 1.000, the l
son4ous [18]

Answer:

The focal length of the lens in ethyl alcohol is 41.07 cm.

Explanation:

Given that,

Refractive index of glass= 1.500

Refractive index of air= 1.000

Refractive index of ethyl alcohol = 1.360

Focal length = 11.5 cm

We need to calculate the focal length of the lens in ethyl alcohol

Using formula of focal length for glass air system

\dfrac{1}{f}=(n_{g}-n_{a})(\dfrac{1}{R_{1}}-\dfrac{1}{R_{2}})

Using formula of focal length for glass ethyl alcohol system

\dfrac{1}{f'}=(n_{g}-n_{ethyl})(\dfrac{1}{R_{1}}-\dfrac{1}{R_{2}})

Divided equation (II) by (I)

\dfrac{f'}{f}=\dfrac{n_{g}-n_{a}}{n_{g}-n_{ethyl}}

Where, n_{g} = refractive index of glass

n_{a} = refractive index of air

n_{ethyl} = refractive index of ethyl

Put the value into the formula

\dfrac{f'}{11.5}=\dfrac{1.500-1.000}{1.500-1.360}

\dfrac{f'}{11.5}=\dfrac{25}{7}

f'=\dfrac{25}{7}\times11.5

f'=41.07\ cm

Hence, The focal length of the lens in ethyl alcohol is 41.07 cm.

Can a falling object reach terminal velocity in outer space? Explain.
Damm [24]
Ith air resistance acting on an object that has been dropped, the object will eventually reach a terminal velocity, which is around 53 m/s (195 km/h or 122 mph) for a human skydiver. ... (On the Moon, the gravitational acceleration is much less than on Earth, approximately 1.6 m/s2.)
