A 60 kilogram student jumps down from a laboratory counter. At the instant he lands on the floor hus speed is 3 meters per secon

As per Newton's law rate of change in momentum is net force

so we can write it as

$F = \frac{dP}{dt}$

$F = \frac{m(v_f - v_i)}{\Delta t}$

now we know that

$m = 60 kg$

$v_f = 3 m/s$

$v_i = 0$

$\Delta t= 0.2 s$

from above equation

$F = \frac{60(3 - 0)}{0.2} = 900 N$

so he will experience 900 N force in above case

What will be the ME of a machine that produces a 240 N work with a 300

Elden [556K]

Answer:

Efficiency = 80%

Explanation:

Given the following data;

Work output = 240 N

Work Input = 300 N

To find the mechanical efficiency of a machine;

$Efficiency = \frac {Out-put \; work}{In-put \; work} * 100$

Substituting into the equation, we have;

$Efficiency = \frac {240}{300} * 100$

$Efficiency = 0.8 * 100$

Efficiency = 80%

Therefore, the mechanical efficiency of the machine is 80 percent.

You throw a ball upward with an initial speed of 4.3 m/s. When it returns to your hand 0.88 s later, it has the same speed in th

djverab [1.8K]

Answer:

The acceleration is -9.8 m/s²

Explanation:

Hi there!!

When you throw a ball upward, there is a downward acceleration that makes the ball return to your hand. This acceleration is produced by gravity.

The average acceleration is calculated as the variation of the speed over time. In this case, we know the time and the initial and final speed. Then:

acceleration = final speed - initial speed/ elapsed time

acceleration = -4.3 m/s - 4.3 m/s / 0.88 s

acceleration = -9.8 m/s²

A) 1.2-kg ball is hanging from the end of a rope. The rope hangs at an angle 20° from the vertical when a 19 m/s horizontal wind

Marat540 [252]

Answer:

Part a)

$F_v = 4.28 N$

Part B)

$L = 1.02 m$

Part C)

$v = 1.25 m/s$

Explanation:

Part A)

As we know that ball is hanging from the top and its angle with the vertical is 20 degree

so we will have

$Tcos\theta = mg$

$T sin\theta = F_v$

$\frac{F_v}{mg} = tan\theta$

$F_v = mg tan\theta$

$F_v = 1.2\times 9.81 (tan20)$

$F_v = 4.28 N$

Part B)

Here we can use energy theorem to find the distance that it will move

$-\mu mg cos\theta L + mg sin\theta L = -\frac{1}{2}mv^2$

$(-(0.37)m(9.81) cos15 + m(9.81) sin15)L = - \frac{1}{2}m(1.4)^2$

$(-3.5 + 2.54)L = - 0.98$

$L = 1.02 m$

Part C)

At terminal speed condition we know that

$F_v = mg$

$bv^2 = mg$

$2.5 v^2 = 3.9$

$v = 1.25 m/s$
