You are walking down a straight path in a park and notice there is another person walking some distance ahead of you. The distan

ce between the two of you remains the same, so you deduce that you are walking at the same speed of 1.09 m/s . Suddenly, you notice a wallet on the ground. You pick it up and realize it belongs to the person in front of you. To catch up, you start running at a speed of 2.85 m/s . It takes you 14.5 s to catch up and deliver the lost wallet. How far ahead of you was this person when you started running?

Answer:

25.52 m

Explanation:

Relative speed between the person and I would be the difference of our speeds

v_r=2.85-1.09=1.76\ m/s

Time taken by me to walk up to the person = 14.5 s

Distance is given by

Distance=Speed\times Time\\\Rightarrow s=vt\\\Rightarrow s=1.76\times 14.5\\\Rightarrow s=25.52\ m

The person was 25.52 m ahead of me when I started running

Data:

h = 2m
m = 45 Kg
PE = ? (Joule)

Adopting, gravity (g) ≈ <span>9,8 m/s²

Formula: PE_{grav}  = mass * g * height

Solving:

PE_{grav} = mass * g * height
PE_{grav} = 45*9,8*2
PE_{grav} = 882J

Example of energy transfer from potential to kinetic and back
Alex_Xolod [135]

Swimmer and Divers. The Potential energy is transferred into Kinetic energy, and allows the diver to submerge into the water. The Kinetic energy then allows the diver to submerge and dive into the water. Potential energy however, is needed to allow the diver to get back out of the water after diving to get up and go and dive again, and then the Kinetic energy is transferred back to Potential energy to repeat the process.

Hope :) -Emilie Xo this is right and it helps! Xo

The ms = 0.5645 and mk=0.1113 for a 30 N box on level ground. What level force is needed to start the box moving
nevsk [136]

Answer:

16.935 N

Explanation:

In order to make the box start moving, the level force applied on the box (F) must be greater than the force of static friction that keeps the box at rest, which is equal to

F_f = \mu_s (mg)

where

\mu_s = 0.5645 is the coefficient of static friction

(mg) = 30 N is the weight of the box

Therefore, the condition for F must be:

F \geq F_f\\F \geq \mu_k (mg)=(0.5645)(30 N)=16.935 N

So, the applied force must be greater than this value.
