Jumping up before the elevator hits. After the cable snaps and the safety system fails, an elevator cab free-falls from a height
noname [10]

Answer:

a)   I = 2279.5 N s , b) F = 3.80 10⁵ N, c)   I = 3125.5 N s  and d)  F = 5.21 10⁵ N

Explanation:

The impulse is equal to the variation in the amount of movement.

    I =∫ F dt = Δp

     I = mv_{f} - m v₀

Let's calculate the final speed using kinematics, as the cable breaks the initial speed is zero

   v_{f}² = V₀² - 2g y

   v_{f}² = 0 - 2 9.8 30.0

   v_{f} = √588

   v_{f} = 24.25 m/s

a) We calculate the impulse

   I = 94 24.25 - 0

   I = 2279.5 N s

b) Let's join the other expression of the impulse to calculate the average force

   I = F t

  F = I / t

  F = 2279.5 / 6 10⁻³

  F = 3.80 10⁵ N

just before the crash the passenger jumps up with v = 8 m / s, let's take the moments of interest just when the elevator arrives with a speed of 24.25m/s down and as an end point the jump up to vf = 8 m / n

c)     I = m v_{f} - m v₀

       I = 94 8 - 94 (-24.25)

       I = 3125.5 N s

d)     F = I / t

       F = 3125.5 / 6 10⁻³

       F = 5.21 10⁵ N

Pendulum A has a bob of mass m hung from the string of length L; pendulum B is identical to A except its bob has the length 2L.
GenaCL600 [577]

Answer:

f_{B}: f_{A} = \sqrt{\frac{2}{1}}

Explanation:

For pendulum A: Length = L and gravity = g

The frequency of pendulum A is given by

f = \frac{1}{2\pi }\sqrt{\frac{g}{L}}

Here, f is the frequency, L be the length

f_{A} = \frac{1}{2\pi }\sqrt{\frac{g}{L}}     ... (1)

For pendulum B: Length = 2L, gravity = g

The frequency of pendulum B is given by

f_{B} = \frac{1}{2\pi }\sqrt{\frac{g}{2L}}   .... (2)

Divide equation (1) by (2)

f_{B}: f_{A} = \sqrt{\frac{2}{1}}

A baseball is thrown 50.0m in 3.0s, what is the average speed of the baseball? Calculated answer is 16.666667! What is the corre
castortr0y [4]

Answer:

20m/s

Explanation:

Given parameters:

Distance of throw = 50m

Time  = 3s

Unknown:

Average speed  = ?

Solution:

Average speed is distance divided by time;

  Average speed  = \frac{distance }{time}

Insert the parameters and solve;

  Average speed  = \frac{50}{3}   = 16.66667m/s  = 20m/s
