Answer:

2.52 m/s

Explanation:

When the man takes a step, his foot is stationary while his body revolves around it. At the point when his body is directly above his foot, there will be no normal force at his maximum speed.

Sum of the forces in the radial direction:

∑F = ma

mg = m v² / r

g = v² / r

v = √(gr)

Given that r = 0.650 m:

v = √(9.8 m/s² × 0.650 m)

v = 2.52 m/s

Dinosaurs’ skeletons can be distinguished from those of other reptiles by the structure of the hips and legs.

jeyben [28]

True, they had a hole in their hip socket that allowed them to run faster than other reptiles of their size at the time. As well as most reptiles besides reptiles had legs to the side, rather than under them like dinosaurs did.

Hope this helps!

A 17926-lb truck enters an emergency exit ramp at a speed of 75.6 ft/s. It travels for 6.4 s before its speed is reduced to 30.3

I am Lyosha [343]

Answer:

$F_{braking}=337299 pdl$

Explanation:

Impulse-Momentum relation:

$I=\Delta p\\ F_{total}*t=m(v_{f}-v{o})$

$F_{total}=-F_{braking}+mgsin{\theta}$

We solve the equations in order to find the braking force:

$F_{braking}=m(v_{o}-v{f})/t+mgsin{\theta}=17926(75.6-30.3)/6.4+17926*32.17*sin21.4=337299 pdl$

<h3>What is Newton's Second Law of Motion?</h3>

Newton's second law provides a precise explanation of the modifications that a force can make to a body's motion. According to this, a body's momentum changes at a rate that is equal to the force acting on it over time in both magnitude and direction. A body's momentum is equal to the sum of its mass and velocity. Similar to velocity, momentum has both a magnitude and a direction, making it a vector quantity.

acceleration - rate of change of velocity with time, both in terms of speed and direction. A point or object going straight forward is accelerated when it accelerates or decelerates.

There are three types of accelerated motions :

uniform acceleration,
non-uniform acceleration
average acceleration.

express all the units in their most basic form.

kg, newton = kg*m/s², acceleration =m/s²

$\frac{ 30000 kg*m/s^{2} }{ 2000 kg} = 15m/s^{2}$
