A bungee jumper with mass 65.0 kg jumps from a high bridge. After reaching his lowest point, he oscillates up and down, hitting

a low point eight more times in 38.0 s. After many oscillations, he finally comes to rest 25.0 m below the level of the bridge. Calculate the spring stiffness constant and the unstretched length of the bungee cord.

Explanation:

It is given that,

Mass of a bungee jumper is 65 kg

The time period of the oscillation is 38 s, hitting a low point eight more times.It means its time period is

T=\dfrac{38}{8}\\\\T=4.75\ s

After many oscillations, he finally comes to rest 25.0 m below the level of the bridge.

For an oscillating object, the time period is given by :

T=2\pi \sqrt{\dfrac{m}{k}}

k = spring stiffness constant

So,

k=\dfrac{4\pi ^2m}{T^2}\\\\k=\dfrac{4\pi ^2\times 65}{(4.75)^2}\\\\k=113.43\ N/m

When the cord is in air,

mg=kx

x = the extension in the cord

x=\dfrac{mg}{k}\\\\x=\dfrac{65\times 9.8}{113.6}\\\\x=5.6\ m

So, the unstretched length of the bungee cord is equal to 25 m - 5.6 m = 19.4 m

What is it called when something doesn’t flow easy
LUCKY_DIMON [66]

Answer:

That something is called having a high viscosity.

Explanation:

The measure expressing a "resistance to flow" is called viscosity. Viscosity relates to  internal friction forces in a fluid causing it to flow with more or less difficulty. Highly viscous stuff is perceived "thick" or "sticky."

If the ankylosaurs starts running and accelerates at 1.3m/s^2 for 3 seconds how far does he make it before the velociraptor catc
sveta [45]

Acceleration is the change of velocity, and velocity is the change of distance. The opposite of finding change, or differentiation, is integration.

Acceleration = 1.3 m/s²

Velocity: ∫ 1.3 dx = 1.3x + c m/s

Distance: ∫ 1.3x dx = 1.3x²/2 + c m

Distance run: 1.3*3²/2 = 5.85 m

The Rigidbody component adds collision to a GameObject
kifflom [539]

Rigidbodies are components that allow a GameObject<u> to react to real-time physics. </u>

Explanation:

  • Rigidbodies are components that allow a GameObject to react to real-time physics. This includes reactions to forces and gravity, mass, drag and momentum. You can attach a Rigidbody to your GameObject by simply clicking on Add Component and typing in Rigidbody2D in the search field.
  • A rigidbody is a property, which, when added to any object, allows it to interact with a lot of fundamental physics behaviour, like forces and acceleration. You use rigidbodies on anything that you want to have mass in your game.
  • You can indeed have a collider with no rigidbody. If there's no rigidbody then Unity assumes the object is static, non-moving.
  • If you had a game with only two objects in it, and both move kinematically, in theory you would only need a rigidbody on one of them, even though they both move.
