Answer:

The building was moved to a distance of, S = 510.2 m

Explanation:

Given data,

The mass of the building, m = 1.45 x 10⁶ kg

The work done to overcome the force of resistance, E = 1 x 10⁸ J

The force of resistance of the building, 2% of building weight

                                          Fₓ =  2 x 1.45 x 10⁶ x 9.8 / 100

                                               = 284200 N

The work done on the building,

                                    E = Fₓ · S

∴                                   S = E /  Fₓ

                                        = 1.45 x 10⁶ / 284200 N

                                        = 510.2 m

Hence, the building was moved to a distance of, S = 510.2 m

<h2><em><u>⇒</u></em>Answer:</h2>

In the standing broad jump, one squats and then pushes off with the legs to see how far one can jump. Suppose the extension of the legs from the crouch position is 0.600 m and the acceleration achieved from this position is 1.25 times the acceleration due to gravity, g . How far can they jump? State your assumptions. (Increased range can be achieved by swinging the arms in the direction of the jump.)

Step-by-Step Solution:

Solution 35PE

This question discusses about the increased range. So, we shall assume that the angle of jumping will be  as the horizontal range is maximum at this angle.

Step 1 of 3<

/p>

The legs have an extension of 0.600 m in the crouch position.

So,  m

The person is at rest initially, so the initial velocity will be zero.

The acceleration is  m/s2

Acceleration  m/s2

Let the final velocity be .

Step 2 of 3<

/p>

Substitute the above given values in the kinematic equation  ,

m/s

Therefore, the final velocity or jumping speed is  m/s

nekit [7.7K]

Given:

density of air at inlet, \rho_{a} = 1.20 kg/m_{3}

density of air at inlet, \rho_{b} = 1.05 kg/m_{3}

Solution:

Now,

\dot{m} = \dot{m_{a}} = \dot{m_{b}}

\rho_{a} A v_{a} = \rho _{b} Av_{b}                        (1)

where

A = Area of cross section

v_{a} = velocity of air at inlet

v_{b} = velocity of air at outlet

Now, using eqn (1), we get:

\frac{v_{b}}{v_{a}} = \frac{\rho_{a}}{\rho_{b}}

\frac{v_{b}}{v_{a}} = \frac{1.20}{1.05} = 1.14

% increase in velocity = 1.14\times 100 =114%

which is 14% more

Therefore % increase in velocity is 14%
