A girl of mass m1=60 kilograms springs from a trampoline with an initial upward velocity of v1=8.0 meters per second. At height

AleksandrR [38]

a) 5.0 m/s

This first part of the problem can be solved by using the conservation of energy. In fact, the mechanical energy of the girl just after she jumps is equal to her kinetic energy:

$E_i=\frac{1}{2}m_1v_1^2$

where m1 = 60 kg is the girl's mass and v1 = 8.0 m/s is her initial velocity.

When she reaches the height of h = 2.0 m, her mechanical energy is sum of kinetic energy and potential energy:

$E_f = \frac{1}{2}m_1 v_2 ^2 + m_1 gh$

where v2 is the new speed of the girl (before grabbing the box), and h = 2.0m. Equalizing the two equations (because the mechanical energy is conserved), we find

$\frac{1}{2}m_1 v_1^2 = \frac{1}{2}m_1 v_2 ^2 + m_1 gh\\v_1^2 = v_2^2 +2gh\\v_2 = \sqrt{v_1^2 -2gh}=\sqrt{(8.0 m/s)^2-(2)(9.8 m/s^2)(2.0 m)}=5.0 m/s$

b) 4.0 m/s

After the girl grab the box, the total momentum of the system must be conserved. This means that the initial momentum of the girl must be equal to the total momentum of the girl+box after the girl catches the box:

$p_i = p_f\\m_1 v_2 = (m_1 + m_2) v_3$

where m2 = 15 kg is the mass of the box. Solving the equation for v3, the combined velocity of the girl+box, we find

$v_3 = \frac{m_1 v_2}{m_1 + m_2}=\frac{(60 kg)(5.0 m/s)}{60 kg+15 kg}=4 m/s$

c) 2.8 m

We can use again the law of conservation of energy. The total mechanical energy of the girl after she catches the box is sum of kinetic energy and potential energy:

$E_i = \frac{1}{2}(m_1+m_2) v_3^2 + (m_1+m_2)gh=\frac{1}{2}(75 kg)(4 m/s)^2+(75 kg)(9.8 m/s^2)(2.0m)=2070 J$

While at the maximum height, the speed is zero, so all the mechanical energy is just potential energy:

$E_f = (m_1 +m_2)gh_{max}$

where h_max is the maximum height. Equalizing the two expressions (because the mechanical energy must be conserved) and solving for h_max, we find

$E_i = (m_1+m_2)gh_{max}\\h_{max}=\frac{E_i}{(m_1+m_2)g}=\frac{2070 J}{(75 kg)(9.8 m/s^2)}=2.8 m$

A proton is going 2,000 m/s into a magnetic field of 300 T. How much force does it feel. The charge of a proton = 1.602 x 10^-19

NemiM [27]

This depends on the direction of the velocity vector to the magnetic field vector. The force is F=q(VxB) ("x" is the cross product.) The max force is when V and B are perpendicular. Then F=qVB = (1.602e-19)(2000)(300) = 9.612e-14 N

Consider an ideal gas at 27.0 degrees Celsius and 1.00 atmosphere pressure. Imagine the molecules to be uniformly spaced, with e

My name is Ann [436]

To solve the exercise it is necessary to keep in mind the concepts about the ideal gas equation and the volume in the cube.

However, for this case the Boyle equation will not be used, but the one that corresponds to the Boltzmann equation for ideal gas, in this way it is understood that

$PV =NkT$

Where,

N = Number of molecules

k = Boltzmann constant

V = Volume

T = Temperature

P = Pressure

Our values are given as,

$N = 1$

$k = 1.38*10^{-23}J/K$

$T = 27\°C = 27\°C + 273 = 300K$

$P = 1atm = 101325Pa$

Rearrange the equation to find V we have,

$V = \frac{NkT}{P}$

$V = \frac{1(1.38*10^{-23})(300K)}{101325Pa}$

$V = 4.0858*10^{-26}m^3$

We know that length of a cube is given by

$V = L^3$

Therefore the Length would be given as,

$L = V^{1/3}$

$L = (4.0858*10^{-26})^{1/3}$

$L = 3.445*10^{-9}m$

Therefore each length of the cube is 3.44nm

ArbitrLikvidat [17]

The answers include the following:

The unit of length most suitable for measuring the thickness of a cell phone is a meter.
The unit of length most suitable for measuring the height of a backyard tree is a meter.

<h3>What is Meter?</h3>

This is defined as the standard unit for measuring the length of a body and is denoted as m.

Height is a vertical type of length which is why meter was chosen as the most appropriate choice.
