Michael Jordan, el célebre basquetbolista, ganó el torneo de clavadas de la NBA en 1988. Para lograr la hazaña saltó 1.35 metros

(a) 0.40 s

First of all, let's find the initial speed at which Jordan jumps from the ground.

The maximum height is h = 1.35 m. We can use the following equation:

$v^2-u^2=2gh$

where

v = 0 is the velocity at the maximum height

u is the initial velocity

$g=-9.8 m/s^2$ is the acceleration of gravity

Solving for u,

$u=\sqrt{-2gh}=\sqrt{-2(-9.8)(1.35)}=5.14 m/s$

The time needed to reach the maximum height can now be found by using the equation

$v=u+gt$

Solving for t,

$t=\frac{v-u}{g}=\frac{0-5.14}{-9.8}=0.52s$

Now we can find the velocity at which Jordan reaches a point 20 cm below the maximum height, so at a height of

h' = 1.35 - 0.20 = 1.15 m

Using again the equation

$v'^2-u^2=2gh'$

we find

$v'=\sqrt{u^2+2gh}=\sqrt{5.14^2+2(-9.8)(1.15)}=1.97 m/s$

And the corresponding time is

$t'=\frac{v'-u}{g}=\frac{1.97-5.14}{-9.8}=0.32s$

So the time to go from h' to h is

$\Delta t = t-t'=0.52-0.32=0.20 s$

And since we have also to take into account the fall down (after Jordan reached the maximum height), which is symmetrical, we have to multiply this time by 2 to get the total time of permanence in the highest 20 cm of motion:

$\Delta t=2\cdot 0.20 = 0.40 s$

(b) 0.08 s

This part is easier since we need to calculate only the velocity at a height of h' = 0.20 m:

$v'^2-u^2=2gh'$

$v'=\sqrt{u^2+2gh}=\sqrt{5.14^2+2(-9.8)(0.20)}=4.74 m/s$

And the corresponding time is

$t'=\frac{v'-u}{g}=\frac{4.74-5.14}{-9.8}=0.04s$

So this is the time needed to go from h=0 to h=20 cm; again, we have to take into account the motion downwards, so we have to multiply this by 2:

$\Delta t = 2\cdot 0.04 =0.08 s$

The charges on two metallic balls are 5.0 and 7.0 coulombs respectively. They are kept 1.2 meters apart. What is the force of in

Marysya12 [62]

We know, F = k * q₁ * q₂ / r²

Substitute the known values,
F = 9 * 10⁹ * 5 * 7 / (1.2)²

F = 315 * 10⁹ / 1.44

F = 218.75 * 10⁹ N

F = 2.1875 * 10¹¹ N [ Final Answer ]

Hope this helps!
