By approximately how much does your gravitational potential energy change when you jump

Potential Energy = height*mass*gravity 
the height is factually the height of the center of mass, which will be varied the same as the lowest of your feet. So when you hurdle, the height that you jump can be used to distinguish the alteration in height of your center of mass.In other words, it is inclined on the mass of the human, be contingent on how extraordinary the person can jump. Supposing a man is 80 kg and he can jump such that his center of mass rises 0.3 m in Earth's standard gravitational field. This sums to approximately 240 Joules of increase in GPE.

A container in the shape of a cube 10.0 cm on each edge contains air (with equivalent molar mass 28.9 g/mol) at atmospheric pres
Vikentia [17]

Answer:

a) m = 1.174 grams

b) F_g = 0.01151 N

c) F_c = 1013 N

Explanation:

Given:

- The length of a cube L = 10.0 cm

- The molar mass of air M = 28.9 g/mol

- Pressure of air P = 101.3 KPa

- Temperature of air T = 300 K

- Universal Gas constant R = 8.314 J/kgK

Find:

(a) the mass of the gas

(b) the gravitational force exerted on it

(c) the force it exerts on each face of the cube

(d) Why does such a small sample exert such a great force? (6%)

Solution:

- Compute the volume of the cube:

                               V = L^3  = 0.1^3 = 0.001 m^3

- Use Ideal gas law equation and compute number of moles of air n:

                               P*V = n*R*T

                                n = P*V / R*T

                                n = 101.3*10^3 * 0.001 / 8.314*300

                                n = 0.04061 moles

- Compute the mass of the gas:

                                m = n*M

                                m = 0.04061*28.9

                                m = 1.174 grams

- The gravitational force exerted on the mass of gas is due to its weight:

                                F_g = m*g

                                F_g = 1.174*9.81*10^-3

                               F_g = 0.01151 N

- The force exerted on each face of cube is due its surface area:

                                F_c = P*A

                                F_c = (101.3*10^3)*(0.1)^2

                                F_c = 1013 N

- The molecules of a gas have high kinetic energy; hence, high momentum. When they collide with the walls they transfer momentum per unit time as force. Higher the velocity of the particles higher the momentum higher the force exerted.

What is the eaquation for acceleration ?
telo118 [61]
Acceleration is the rate of change of velocity of an object. where a is acceleration, v is the final velocity of the object, u is the initial velocity of the object and t is the time that has elapsed. This equation can be rearranged to give: v = u + at.

How would the photos set up change the mechanical advantage of lifting the block as compared with lifting the block without a le
lisabon 2012 [21]
<h3>Answer:</h3>

  The mechanical advantage would decrease, making the block more difficult to lift.

<h3>Explanation:</h3>

The mechanical advantage in such a setup is the ratio of distance from A to B to the distance from D to B. In this picture, that ratio is less than 1, meaning the advantage of having this setup is less than the advantage of no setup at all.

While the force required to lift the block is increased by this setup, the distance over which that force is applied will be smaller for raising the block to a given height. (Overall, for the same height, more work is required with the lever setup because you're raising part of the mass of the lever as well as the mass of the block.)

Spiders may "tune" strands of their webs to give an enhanced response at frequencies corresponding to the frequencies at which d
Bingel [31]

Answer:

0.0000167283525619 N

Explanation:

\rho = Density of silk = 1300 kg/m³

d = Diameter = 0.002 mm

r = Radius = 0.001 mm

l = Length = 16 cm

f = Frequency = 200 Hz

Mass of the string is

m=\rho V\\\Rightarrow m=\rho Al\\\Rightarrow m=1300\times \pi (0.001\times 10^{-3})^2\times 0.16\\\Rightarrow m=6.5345127195\times 10^{-10}\ kg

Frequency is given by

f=\dfrac{1}{2l}\sqrt{\dfrac{T}{m/l}}\\\Rightarrow T=4lf^2m\\\Rightarrow T=4\times 0.16\times 200^2\times 6.5345127195\times 10^{-10}\\\Rightarrow T=0.0000167283525619\ N

The tension on the string is 0.0000167283525619 N
