Force is a vector quantity and denotes any interaction that change the motion of an object in a certain direction. When influence by force an object can change its velocity or

The two things that are a included when describing force are: magnitude and direction. To fully describe the force acting upon an object, you must describe both the magnitude (size or numerical value) and the direction.

A motorcyclist drove 7 km at 57km/h and then another 7 km at 81 km/h. What was the average speed? ​
alex41 [277]

<u>Answer:</u>

<em>The average speed of the car is 66.9 km/h</em>

<u>Explanation:</u>

Here distance covered with the speed <em>57 km/h=7 km  </em>

distance covered with the speed of <em>81 km/h=7 km</em>

<em>Average speed is equal to the ratio of total distance to the total time. </em>

<em>total distance= 7 + 7= 14 km  </em>

<em>time= \frac{distance}{speed} </em>

<em>time taken to cover the first 7 km= 7/57 h  </em>

<em>time taken to cover the second part of the journey = 7/81 h </em>

<em>average speed =  14/(7/57+7/81)=(14 \times 57 \times 81)/945=66.9 km/h</em>

<u><em>Shortcut: </em></u>

<em>When equal distances are covered with different speeds average speed=2 ab/(a+b) where a and b are the variable speeds in the phases. </em>

Calculate the speed (in m/sec) of a wave with a wavelength of 2.1 meters and a period of 9.4 second.
Lorico [155]

Wave speed = (wavelength) x (frequency)

We know the wavelength, but we don't know the frequency. How can we find the frequency ?  "Here frequency frequency."

We know the period, and frequency is just (1 / period).  So . . .

Wave speed = (wavelength) / (period)

Wave speed = (2.1 meters) / (9.4 seconds)

Wave speed = (2.1 / 9.4) m/s

<em>Wave speed = 0.223 m/s</em>

A 62-kg person jumps from a window to a fire net 20.0 m directly below, which stretches the net 1.4 m. Assume that the net behav
gayaneshka [121]

Answer:

a) x = 0.098

b) x = 2.72 m

Explanation:

(a) To find the stretch of the fire net when the same person is lying in it, you can assume that the net is like a spring with constant spring k. It is necessary to find k.

When the person is falling down he acquires a kinetic energy K, this energy is equal to the elastic potential energy of the net when it is max stretched.

Then, you have:

K=U\\\\\frac{1}{2}mv^2=\frac{1}{2}kx^2        (1)

m: mass of the person = 62kg

k: spring constant = ?

v: velocity of the person just when he touches the fire net = ?

x: elongation of the fire net = 1.4 m

Before the calculation of the spring constant, you calculate the final velocity of the person by using the following formula:

v^2=v_o^2+2gy

vo: initial velocity = 0 m/s

g: gravitational acceleration = 9.8 m/s^2

y: height from the person jumps = 20.0m

v=\sqrt{2gy}=\sqrt{2(9.8m/s^2)(20.0m)}=14\frac{m}{s}

With this value you can find the spring constant k from the equation (1):

mv^2=kx^2\\\\k=\frac{mv^2}{x^2}=\frac{(62kg)(14m/s)^2}{(1.4m)^2}=6200\frac{N}{m}

When the person is lying on the fire net the weight of the person is equal to the elastic force of the fire net:

W=F_e\\\\mg=kx

you solve the last expression for x:

x=\frac{mg}{k}=\frac{(62kg)(9.8m/s^2)}{6200N/m}=0.098m

When the person is lying on the fire net the elongation of the fire net is 0.098m

b) To find how much would the net stretch, If the person jumps from 38 m, you first calculate the final velocity of the person again:

v=\sqrt{2gy}=\sqrt{2(9.8m/s^2)(38m)}=27.29\frac{m}{s}

Next, you calculate x from the equation (1):

x=\sqrt{\frac{mv^2}{k}}=\sqrt{\frac{(62kg)(27.29m/s)^2}{6200N/m}}\\\\x=2.72m

The net fire is stretched 2.72 m
