Consult Conceptual Example 9 in preparation for this problem. Interactive LearningWare 6.3 also provides useful background. The

drawing shows a person who, starting from rest at the top of a cliff, swings down at the end of a rope, releases it, and falls into the water below. There are two paths by which the person can enter the water. Suppose he enters the water at a speed of 13.4 m/s via path 1. How fast is he moving on path 2 when he releases the rope at a height of 2.34 m above the water? Ignore the effects of air resistance.

Answer:

11.56066 m/s

Explanation:

m = Mass of person

v = Velocity of person = 13.4 m/s

g = Acceleration due to gravity = 9.81 m/s²

v' = Velocity of the person in the second

The kinetic and potential energy will balance each other at the surface

\dfrac{1}{2}mv^2=mgh\\\Rightarrow h=\dfrac{v^2}{2g}\\\Rightarrow h=\dfrac{13.4^2}{2\times 9.81}\\\Rightarrow h=9.15188\ m

Height of the cliff is 9.15188 m

Let height of the fall be h' = 2.34 m

\dfrac{1}{2}mv'^2+mgh'=mgh\\\Rightarrow v'=\sqrt{2g(h-h')}\\\Rightarrow v'=\sqrt{2\times 9.81(9.15188-2.34)}\\\Rightarrow v'=11.56066\ m/s

The speed of the person is 11.56066 m/s

Discuss how oxygen is used in spacecraft's air supplies in at least 3 paragraphs.
galina1969 [7]

Short-duration spacecraft typically have one backup system and carry their own supply of oxygen. A large portion of the required oxygen is produced on long-duration missions, such as the International Space Station (ISS), which has been in orbit since 1998. Different sources provide the oxygen utilized on the ISS. The water electrolyzer is the primary source of metabolic oxygen. As an alternative to the electrolyzer, oxygen candles (also known as SFOGs) can produce metabolic oxygen. Additionally, oxygen is carried up whenever a cargo ship docks and stored in two tanks on the ISS Airlock. The electrolyzer electrolyzes water to create oxygen by running an electric current through it. Since water is a poor electrical conductor by itself, a little quantity of common salt is dissolved in the water to improve its electrical conductivity. Water is split into hydrogen and oxygen throughout the process.

We must keep in mind that oxygen by itself cannot be inhaled; it must be combined in the proper ratio with nitrogen to make it breathable. Two tanks aboard the ISS are used to store nitrogen, and the cargo ships that travel by from time to time also transport nitrogen cylinders. Through the electrical grid of the station, the solar panels on the station supply the necessary electricity for the oxygen generators. The majority of the required water is transported to the station by cargo supply ships. Condensers, which draw water vapor even from the station's air, ensure that not a drop of water is wasted. Using the proper equipment, water is also recycled from the astronauts' urine.

Through a suitable vent, the hydrogen gas produced during the electrolysis process is released into space. Pressurized tanks at the airlock nodes at the space station are pumped with oxygen when the cargo vehicles arrive there. Pressurized tanks there are also pumped with nitrogen. It goes without saying that the station's atmospheric controls combine the gases in the right amounts for the atmosphere of Earth and then distribute the combination throughout the cabin. The production of oxygen in space is impossible.

Displacement is which of the following types of quantities?A. vectorB. scalarC. magnitudeD. dimensional
agasfer [191]

Answer: A. vector

Explanation:

Movement is the change of position of a body at a certain time. The body that experiences this change of position is called mobile.

In this sense, the <u>displacement</u> is the distance in a straight line between the initial and final position of this mobile, which differentiates it from <u>the trajectory, </u> which is the <u>path followed by the body in its movement and a scalar magnitude.</u>

Hence, the displacement is a vector.

determine the greates possile acceleration of the 975 kg race car so that its front wheels do not leace the gorund
wolverine [178]

<u>Answer</u>:

The greatest possible acceleration of the car is a_G= 6.78 m/s^2

<u>Explanation</u>:

N_A+N_B-Mg = 0

-N_Aa +N_B(b-a)- \mu_s N_Bh - \mu_s N_Ah = 0

0.8N_B +0.8N_A = 975a_G

N_A+N_B = 9564.75 -------------(1)

-N_A(1.82) + N_B(2.20 -1.82) -0.9N_B(0.55)-0.8N_A(0.55)=0

-N_A(1.82) +0.38 N_B -0.44N_B -0.44N_A=0

-2.26N_A -0.06N_B= 0 ----------------(2)

Solving the equation (1) and(2)

N_A + N_B = 9564.75

-2.26N_A-0.06N_B=0

N_A = -260.85N

N_B = 9825.60N

\mu_s N_B + \mu_s N_A = 975a_G

0.8(9825.60)+0.8(-260.85) = 975a_Ga_G=\frac{7651.8}{975}a_G_1=7.4848m/s^2

Next lets assume that the front wheels contact with the ground N_A = 0

F_B = Ma_G

N_B = M_g

N_B - M_g = 0

N_B(b-a) –F_Bh = 0

F_B = 975a_G

N_B-975(9.8) = 0

N_B=9564.75N

9564.75(2.20 -1.82) -F_B(0.55)=0

\frac{3634.605}{0.55}=F_B

F_B = 6608.3

F_B = Ma_G

6608.3 = 975a_G

a_G = 6.7778 m/s^2

a_G_2 = 6.78m/s^2

Choosing the critical case

a_G = min(a_G_1 ,a_G_2)

a_G = min(7.848, 6.78)

a_G= 6.78 m/s^2
