A skateboarder shoots off a ramp with a velocity of 7.1 m/s, directed at an angle of 61° above the horizontal. The end of the ra

mp is 1.4 m above the ground. Let the x axis be parallel to the ground, the y direction be vertically upward, and take as the origin the point on the ground directly below the top of the ramp. (a) How high above the ground is the highest point that the skateboarder reaches?

Answer:

Highest point reached  = 3.37 m

Explanation:

Initial velocity, = 7.1 m/s

Initial vertical velocity = 7.1 sin 61 = 6.21 m/s

Consider the vertical motion of skateboarder,

We have equation of motion, v² = u² + 2as

          Initial velocity, u = 6.21 m/s

          Acceleration, a = -9.81 m/s²

          Final velocity, v = 0 m/s

         Substituting

                       v² = u² + 2as

                       0² = 6.21² + 2 x -9.81 x s

                       s = 1.97 m

So from ramp the position it goes up by 1.97 m

       Highest point reached = 1.97 + 1.4 = 3.37 m

CONFUSED!!!
otez555 [7]

A. Impulse is simply the product of Force and time. Therefore,

I = F * t                                 ---> 1

where I is impulse, F is force, t is time

 

However another formula for solving impulse is:

I = m vf – m vi                    ---> 2

where m is mass, vf is final velocity and vi is initial velocity

 

Therefore using equation 2 to solve for impulse I:

I = 2000kg (0) – 2000kg (77 m/s)
I = -154,000 kg m/s

 

B. By conservation of momentum, we also know that Impulse is conserved. That means that increasing the time by a factor of 3 would still result in an impuse of -154,000 kg m/s. So,

I = F’ * (3 t) = -154,000 kg m/s

Since t is multiplied by 3, therefore this only means that Force is decreased by a factor of 3 to keep the impulse constant, therefore:

(F/3) (3t) = -154,000 kg m/s

 

 

Summary of Answers:

A. I = -154,000 kg m/s

B. Force is decreased by factor of 3

A very small object carrying -7 μC of charge is attracted to a large, well-anchored, positively charged object. How much kinetic
miss Akunina [59]

Answer:

ΔK.E = 14 nJ

Explanation:

Solution:

- The charge that moves under the influence of an Electric Field produced between a potential difference (V) stores electric potential energy U within that is converted to kinetic energy.

- We will use conservation of energy on the system that contains the charged particle with charge q loses its electric potential energy U as it moves towards positively charged object that converts into a gain in Kinetic energy of the charged particle ΔK.E:

                                 ΔK.E = U

Where,

                                 U = V*q

                                 ΔK.E = V*q

                                 ΔK.E = (7*10^-6)*(2*10^-3)

                                 ΔK.E = 14 nJ

- The gain in kinetic energy is 14 nJ.

What are the coefficients in this expression?
skad [1K]

6 and \frac{1}{3}

Explanation:

The expression:

     6a - \frac{3}{4}  + 7.5 - \frac{b}{3}

 A coefficient is a numerical constant usually placed before a variable in an expression.

They are used to multiply variables.

 Given equation is;

   6a - \frac{3}{4}  + 7.5 - \frac{b}{3}

There are two variables in this expression which are;

  a and  - b

  6 (a) - \frac{3}{4}  + 7.5 - b (\frac{1}{3} )

The coefficients in this expression are:

    6 and \frac{1}{3}

Is work being done on a barbell when a weight lifter is holding the barbell<br> over his head?
Artemon [7]

Answer:

Because in order for work to be done on an object, the object must be moving. Why isn't work being done on a barbell when a weight lifter is holding the barbell over his head? Work is maximized when force is applied in the same direction that the object is moving. ... In order to do work faster, more_is required.

tatuchka [14]
It's gravitational potential energy at the top will roughly equal it's kinetic energy when it was released (a little is lost to air resistance).  Note this will assume the release point is zero potential energy.  (we are free to define it that way, just letting you know).  Gravitational potential energy is mgh.
mgh=25J
h=25J/(0.5kg x 9.81m/s^2) = 5.097m
So it goes about 5.1 meters above the point where it was released
