The deceleration experienced by the gymnast is the 9 times of the acceleration due to gravity.

Now from Newton`s  first law, the net force on gymnast,

F_{net} =F-W=ma

Here, W is the weight of the gymnast and a is the acceleration experienced by the gymnast (9\times g acceleration due to gravity)  

Therefore,

F= ma+W OR F=ma+mg=m(g+a)

Given m = 30 kg anda=9\times g=9\times 9.8 m/s^{2} =88.2 m/s^{2}

Substituting these values in above formula and calculate the force exerted by the gymnast,  

F=(40 kg) (88.2 m/s^{2} +9.8 m/s^{2} )

F=3.537\times10^{3}N

A typical ceiling fan running at high speed has an airflow of about 1.85 ✕ 103 ft3/min, meaning that about 1.85 ✕ 103 cubic feet
densk [106]

Answer:

0.8726  m^3/s

Explanation:

We are to convert 1.85 x 10^3 ft^3/min to m^3/s

First, let us convert the numerator from ft3 to m3

1 ft3 = 0.0283 m3

Hence,

1.85 x 10^3 ft3 = 1.85 x 10^3 x 0.0283 m3

     = 52.355 m3

Now, let us convert the denominator from minutes to seconds

1 min = 60 sec

Therefore;

1.85 x 10^3 ft^3/min = 52.355/60  m^3/s

        = 0.8726  m^3/s

An ambulance with a siren emitting a whine at 1790 Hz overtakes and passes a cyclist pedaling a bike at 2.36 m/s. After being pa
Deffense [45]

Answer:

The speed of the ambulance is 4.30 m/s

Explanation:

Given:

Frequency of the ambulance, f = 1790 Hz

Frequency at the cyclist, f' = 1780 Hz

Speed of the cyclist, v₀ = 2.36 m/s

let the velocity of the ambulance be 'vₓ'

Now,

the Doppler effect is given as:

f'=f\frac{v\pm v_o}{v\pm v_x}

where, v is the speed of sound

since the ambulance is moving towards the cyclist. thus, the sign will be positive

thus,

v_x=\frac{f}{f'}(v+v_o)-v

on substituting the values, we get

v_x=\frac{1790}{1780}(343+2.36)-343

or

vₓ = 4.30 m/s

Hence, <u>the speed of the ambulance is 4.30 m/s</u>

The density of mobile electrons in copper metal is 8.4 1028 m-3. Suppose that i = 4.6 1018 electrons/s are drifting through a co
Vesna [10]

Answer:

The time is 106.7 minute.

Explanation:

Given that,

Density = 8.4\times10^{28}\ m^3

Current i = 4.6\times10^{18}\ electron/s

Diameter of wire = 1.2 mm

Length = 31 cm

We need to calculate the drift velocity

Using formula of drift velocity

v_{d}=\dfrac{I}{neA}

v_{d}=\dfrac{Ne}{tne\times\pi r^2}

Put the value into the formula

v_{d}=\dfrac{4.6\times10^{18}}{8.4\times10^{28}\times\pi\times(0.6\times10^{-3})^2}

v_{d}=4.842\times10^{-5}\ m/s

We need to calculate the time

Using formula for time

v_{d}=\dfrac{l}{t}

t=\dfrac{l}{v_{d}}

Where, l = length

v_{d} = drift velocity

Put the value into the formula

t=\dfrac{31\times10^{-2}}{4.842\times10^{-5}}

t=6402.31\ sec

t=106.7\ minute

Hence, The time is 106.7 minute.
