The sprinter is in uniform accelerated motion, and its initial velocity is zero, so the relationship betwen space (S) and time (t) is
S= \frac{1}{2} a t^2
where a is the acceleration. Using the data of the problem, we can find a:
a= \frac{2S}{t^2} = \frac{2 \cdot 49 m}{(7.0 s)^2} =2.0 m/s^2
So now we can solve the 3 parts of the problem.

a) power output at t=2.0 s
The velocity at t=2.0 s is
v(t)=at=(2.0 m/s^2)(2.0 s)=4.0 m/s

the kinetic energy of the sprinter is
K= \frac{1}{2} mv^2= \frac{1}{2}(56 kg)(4.0 m/s)^2=448 J

and so the power output is
P= \frac{E}{t} = \frac{448 J}{2.0 s} =224 W

b) power output at t=4.0s 
The velocity at t=4.0 s is
v(t)=at=(2.0 m/s^2)(4.0 s)=8.0 m/s

the kinetic energy of the sprinter is
K= \frac{1}{2} mv^2= \frac{1}{2}(56 kg)(8.0 m/s)^2=1792 J

and so the power output is
P= \frac{E}{t} = \frac{1792 J}{4.0 s} =448 W

c) Power output at t=6.0 s
The velocity at t=2.0 s is
v(t)=at=(2.0 m/s^2)(6.0 s)=12.0 m/s

the kinetic energy of the sprinter is
K= \frac{1}{2} mv^2= \frac{1}{2}(56 kg)(6.0 m/s)^2=4032 J

and so the power output is
P= \frac{E}{t} = \frac{4032 J}{6.0 s} =672 W

Refraction occurs when light passing from one medium to another. True or False
kodGreya [7K]

Answer: True

Refraction is a phenomenon in which the light bends or changes its direction (and changes the speed of propagation, as well) <u>when passing through a medium</u> with a refractive index n <u>different from the other medium.  </u>

Where the Refractive index is a number that describes how fast light propagates through a medium or material:

n=\frac{c}{v}

Being n a relation between the speed of light in vacuum c  and its speed in the other medium v .

It is important to note that in this process, the wavelength may be modified because it depends on the medium, however, the refracted ray of light does not change its frequency.

A weightlifter lifts a 250-kg mass 0.5 meters above his head, how much PEg does the mass have (Note: g=9.8 m/s2)? Round your ans
Anna71 [15]
The Gravitationa potential energy of the mass (PEG) is given by:
U=mgh
where
m is the mass
g is the gravitational acceleration
h is the heigth of the mass above the reference level (the ground)

In this problem, m=250 kg and h=0.5 m, therefore the gravitational potential energy of the mass is:
U=mgh=(250 kg)(9.8 m/s^2)(0.5 m)=1225 J

A massless spring with force constant ????=200N/m hangs from the ceiling. A 2.0-kg block is attached to the free end of the spri
Makovka662 [10]

Answer:

-0.4454 Joules

Explanation:

m = Mass of block = 2 kg

h = Height of extension = 17 cm = x

g = Acceleration due to gravity = 9.81 m/s²

Potential energy of the spring

P=mgh\\\Rightarrow P=2\times 9.81\times 0.17\\\Rightarrow P=3.3354\ J

The kinetic energy of the spring

K=\frac{1}{2}mx^2\\\Rightarrow K=\frac{1}{2}\times 200\times 0.17^2\\\Rightarrow K=2.89\ J

In this system as the potential and kinetic energy is conserved from work energy equivalence we get

W=P-K\\\Rightarrow W=2.89-3.3354\\\Rightarrow W=-0.4454\ J

The work done by friction is -0.4454 Joules
