A stuntman with a mass of 80.5 kg swings across a moat from a rope that is 11.5 m. At the bottom of the swing the stuntman's spe
goldenfox [79]

Answer:

  • No
  • 5.49 m/s

Explanation:

The net force required to accelerate the stuntman in a circular arc of radius 11.5 m will be ...

  F = mv²/r . . . . where this m is the mass being accelerated, v is the tangential velocity, and r is the radius.

Here, the net force needs to be ...

  F = (80.5 kg)(8.45 m/s)²/(11.5 m) . . . . . where this m is meters

  ≈ 499.8175 kg·m/s² = 499.8 N

Gravity exerts a force on the stuntman of ...

  F = mg = (80.5 kg)(9.8 m/s²) = 788.9 kg·m/s² = 788.9 N

Then the tension required in the rope/vine is ...

  499.8 N+788.9 N= 1288.7 N

This is more than the capacity of the rope, so we do not expect the stuntman to make it across the moat.

_____

The allowed net force for centripetal acceleration is ...

  1000 N -788.9 N = 211.1 N

Then the allowed velocity is ...

  211.1 = 80.5v²/11.5

  30.16 = v² . . . .  multiply by 11.5/80.5

  5.49 = v . . . . . . take the square root

The maximum speed the stuntman can have is 5.49 m/s.

_____

<em>Comment on crossing the moat</em>

The kinetic energy at the bottom of the swing translates to potential energy at the end of the swing. At the lower speed, the stuntman cannot rise as high, so will traverse a shorter arc. At 8.45 m/s, the moat could be about 16.8 m wide; at 5.49 m/s, it can only be about 11.5 m wide.

Why do sex cells contain only half the number of chromosomes needed for offspring? Explain
Bogdan [553]

Answer:

None, egg cells don't have chromosomes. No, sex cells do have chromosomes. Meiosis reduces chromosome number so that sex cells (eggs and sperm) have a half set of chromosomes–one homolog of each pair. This is the haploid number.

Compare the force of air resistance and the force of gravity on an object falling at its terminal velocity.
Sholpan [36]
The viscous force on an object moving through air is proportional to its velocity.
The only forces acting on an object when falling are air resistance and its weight itself. The weight acts vertically downwards whereas air resistance acts vertically upward.
Let F be the viscous force due to air molecules, B be buoyant force due to air and W be the weight of falling object. Initially, the velocity of falling object and hence the viscous force F is zero and the object is accelerated due to force
(W-B). Because of the acceleration the velocity increases and accordingly the viscous force also increases. At a certain instant, the viscous force becomes equal to W-B. The net force then becomes zero and the object falls with constant velocity. This constant velocity is called terminal velocity.
Thus at terminal velocity, air resistance and force of gravity becomes equal.
