A 63.2-kg climber finds herself dangling over the edge of a cliff. Fortunately, she’s connected by a rope of negligible mass to

a 1220-kg rock located 48.6 m from the edge of the cliff. Unfortunately, the ice is frictionless, so the climber accelerates downward. What’s her acceleration, and how much time does she have before the rock goes over the edge?

Answer:0.535 m/s^2

Explanation:

Given

mass of climber(m_1)=63.2 kg

Distance between rock and cliff=48.6 m

mass of rock(m_2)=1220

let T be the tension in the rope

Thus T-m_1g=m_1a------1

where a is the acceleration of system

Also for Rock

T=m_2a------2

From 1 & 2 we can say that

m_1\left [ g+a\right ]=m_2\left [ a\right ]

g+a=\frac{1220}{63.2}\left [ a\right ]

g+a=19.303 a

g=18.303 a

a=\frac{g}{18.303}

a=0.535 m/s^2

Thus climber is decelerating with 0.535 m/s^2

time to cover 48.6 m

48.6=\frac{0.535t^2}{2}

t=13.47 s

Answer:

a = 603.59 m/s^2

Explanation:

from the data given . the rate of change in magnetic field is as follow

\frac{dB}{dt} = 280 G/s = 280 \times 10^{-4} T/s

from the faraday's law of induction , the expression for the induced emf in region of radius r as follow

\epsilon = \frac{d \phi}{dt}

\int E.dl = \frac{d(BA)}{dt}

E(2\pi r)= \pi r^2 \frac{dB}{dt}

E = \frac{r}{2} \frac{dB}{dt}

electric field at point P_1 as follow

E = \frac{r}{2} \frac{dB}{dt}

E = \frac{1.5\times 10^{-2}}{2} 280 \times 10^{-4}

E = 6.3\times 10^{-6} V/m

from newton 2nd law of motion, the acceleration of proton is

F = ma

qE = ma

a = \frac{qE}{m}

a = \frac{1.6 \times 10^{-19} (6.3\times 10^{-6})}{1.67\times 10^{-27}}

a = 603.59 m/s^2

Problems with solar energy include _____.
german
First choice:  the inability of current technology to capture
large amounts of the Sun's energy

Well, it's true that large amounts of it get away ... our 'efficiency' at capturing it is still rather low.  But the amount of free energy we're able to capture is still huge and significant, so this isn't really a major problem.

Second choice:  the inability of current technology to store
captured solar energy

No.  We're pretty good at building batteries to store small amounts, or raising water to store large amounts.  Storage could be better and cheaper than it is, but we can store huge amounts of captured solar energy right now, so this isn't a major problem either.

Third choice:  inconsistencies in the availability of the resource

I think this is it.  If we come to depend on solar energy, then we're
expectedly out of luck at night, and we may unexpectedly be out
of luck during long periods of overcast skies.

Fourth choice:  lack of demand for solar energy

If there is a lack of demand, it's purely a result of willful manipulation
of the market by those whose interests are hurt by solar energy.
