Answer: Speed = 4 m/s
Explanation:
The parameters given are
Mass M = 60 kg
Height h = 0.8 m
Acceleration due to gravity g= 10 m/s2
Before the man jumps, he will be experiencing potential energy at the top of the table.
P.E = mgh
Substitute all the parameters into the formula
P.E = 60 × 9.8 × 0.8
P.E = 470.4 J
As he jumped from the table and hit the ground, the whole P.E will be converted to kinetic energy according to conservative of energy.
When hitting the ground,
K.E = P.E
Where K.E = 1/2mv^2
Substitute m and 470.4 into the formula
470.4 = 1/2 × 60 × V^2
V^2 = 470.4/30
V^2 = 15.68
V = square root (15.68)
V = 3.959 m/s
Therefore, the speed of the man when hitting the ground is approximately 4 m/s
Answer:
0.66
Explanation:
By using the formula
u = v^2 / r g
Where u is coefficent of friction
u = 23.5 × 23.5 / (85 × 9.8)
u = 0.66
Answer:
It is found that W1 - W2 loss in weight of solid when immersed in water is equal to the weight of the water displaced by the body. This verifies Archimedes' principle.
