Answer:

a) v_{f} \approx 0.328\,\frac{m}{s}, b) v_{f} \approx 6.009\,\frac{m}{s}

Explanation:

Let consider that bottom has a height of zero. The motion of Tarzan can be modelled after the Principle of Energy Conservation:

U_{g,1} + K_{1} = U_{g,2} + K_{2}

The final speed is:

K_{2} = U_{g,1} - U_{g,2} + K_{1}

\frac{1}{2}\cdot m \cdot v_{f}^{2} = m\cdot g \cdot L\cdot (\cos \theta_{2}-\cos \theta_{1}) + \frac{1}{2}\cdot m \cdot v_{o}^{2}

v_{f}^{2} = 2 \cdot g \cdot L \cdot (\cos \theta_{2} - \cos \theta_{1}) + v_{o}^{2}

v_{f} = \sqrt{v_{o}^{2}+2\cdot g \cdot L \cdot (\cos \theta_{2}-\cos \theta_{1})}

a) The final speed is:

v_{f} = \sqrt{(0\,\frac{m}{s} )^{2}+2\cdot (9.807\,\frac{m}{s^{2}} )\cdot (35\,m)\cdot (\cos 0^{\textdegree}-\cos 44^{\textdegree})}

v_{f} \approx 0.328\,\frac{m}{s}

b) The final speed is:

v_{f} = \sqrt{(6\,\frac{m}{s} )^{2}+2\cdot (9.807\,\frac{m}{s^{2}} )\cdot (35\,m)\cdot (\cos 0^{\textdegree}-\cos 44^{\textdegree})}

v_{f} \approx 6.009\,\frac{m}{s}

Answer:

(A) Vf = 13.8 m/s

(B)  Vf = 15.1 m/s      

Explanation:

length of rope (L) = 35 m

angle to the vertical = 44 degrees

acceleration due to gravity (g) = 9.8 m/s^{2}

(A) from conservation of energy

final kinetic energy + final potential energy = initial kinetic energy + initial potential energy

0.5m(Vf)^{2} + mg(Hf) =  0.5m(Vi)^{2} + mg(Hi)

where

m = mass

Hi = initial height = 35 cos 44 = 25.17

Hf = final height = length of vine = 35 m

Vi = initial velocity = 0 since he starts from rest

Vf = final velocity

the equation now becomes

0.5m(Vf)^{2} + mg(Hf) = mg(Hi)

0.5m(Vf)^{2} = mg (Hi - Hf)

0.5(Vf)^{2} = g (Hi - Hf)

0.5(Vf)^{2} = 9.8 x (25.17 - 35)

0.5(Vf)^{2} = - 96.3  (the negative sign tells us the direction of motion is downwards)

Vf = 13.8 m/s

(B) when the initial velocity is 6 m/s the equation remains

      0.5m(Vf)^{2} + mg(Hf) =  0.5m(Vi)^{2} + mg(Hi)

       m(0.5(Vf)^{2} + g(Hf)) =  m(0.5(Vi)^{2} + g(Hi))

      0.5(Vf)^{2} + g(Hf) = 0.5(Vi)^{2} + g(Hi)

      0.5(Vf)^{2} = 0.5(Vi)^{2} + g(Hi) - g(Hf)

       0.5(Vf)^{2} = 0.5(6)^{2} + (9.8 x (25.17 - 35))

        0.5(Vf)^{2} =  -114.3  ( just as above, the negative sign tells us the direction of motion is downwards)      

       Vf = 15.1 m/s

How much power is needed to lift the 200-N object to a height of 4 m in 4 s?
Vitek1552 [10]

Answer: 2000 watts

Explanation:

Given that,

power = ?

Weight of object = 200-N

height = 4 m

Time = 4 s

Power is the rate of work done per unit time i.e Power is simply obtained by dividing work by time. Its unit is watts.

i.e Power = work / time

(since work = force x distance, and weight is the force acting on the object due to gravity)

Then, Power = (weight x distance) / time

Power = (200N x 4m) / 4s

Power = 8000Nm / 4s

Power = 2000 watts

Thus, 2000 watts of power is needed to lift the object.

Answer:

The slope of the graph is what you need. That tells you the speed not the velocity. In order to find the velocity you would also need to know the direction of the motion.
