Mike has a mass of 97 kg. He jumps out of a perfectly good airplane that is 2000 m above the ground. After he falls 1000 m, when

his downward speed is 68 m/s, Mike opens his parachute. The positive y-direction is downward.
(a) Calculate the average magnitude of the upward force of the air resistance on Mike during his initial descent.

(b) After Mike opens his parachute, he continues to descend, eventually reaching the ground with a speed of 4.0 m/s. Calculate the average upward force during this part of Mike's descent.

(c) At the same time Mike jumps out of the airplane, his wallet (mass of 0.3 kg) falls out of his pocket. Calculate the wallet's downward speed when it reaches the ground. For this calculation, assume that air resistance is negligible.

Answer:

a)  fr = 224.3 N , b)   fr = 224.3 N , c)   v = 198.0  m/s

Explanation:

a) For this exercise let's start by calculating the acceleration in the fall

             v² = v₀² - 2 a (y-y₀)

When it jumps the initial vertical speed is zero

             a = -v² / 2 (y-y₀)

             a = -68 2/2 (1000-2000)

             a = 2,312 m / s²

Let's use the second net law to enter the average friction force

            fr = m a

            fr = 97 2,312

            fr = 224.3 N

b) let's look for acceleration

            v² = v₀² - 2 a y

            a = (v² –v₀²) / 2 (y-y₀)

            a = (4² - 68²) / 2 (0-1000)

            a = 2,304 m / s²

            fr = m a

            fr = 97 2,304

            fr = 223.5 N

c) the speed of the wallet is searched with kinematics

           v² = v₀² - 2 g (y-y₀)

           v = √ (0-2 9.8 (0-2000))

           v = 198.0  m/s

Why should the substage condenser not be included in computing the magnification?
Leni [432]
The reason as to why the substage condenser does not need to be included in computing the magnification and the only component needed is the ocular lens and the objective lenses is because the condenser is only responsible for gathering light and it does not contribute with the magnification of the object under the microscope.

a baseball is pitched with a speed of 35.0m/s. how long does it take the ball to travel 18.4 m from the pitchers mound to home p
Vlad [161]
Given the speed and the distance, to find time you can use the formula speed is equal to distance over time. From there you can manipulate the equation for time to equal the distance divided by speed. Time is equal to 18.4 meters divided by 35m/s which equals 0.526 seconds.

In a certain time interval, natural gas with energy content of 19000 J was piped into a house during a winter day. In the same t
Bumek [7]

Explanation:

Since, it is mentioned the there occurs no change in the temperature. This also means that there will occur no change in thermal energy of the system.

Hence, \Delta E = 0. And, as \Delta E = 0 then there will be no work involved. This means that total energy added to the house will return to the outside air as heat.

Therefore,

                   Q = -(19000 J + 2000 J)

                       = -21000 J

or,    |Q| = 21000 J

Thus, we can conclude that the magnitude of the energy transfer between the house and the outside air is 21000 J.

1. What are advantages and disadvantages of using a solar cooker compared to other meanings of cookings?
Brums [2.3K]

Answer:

The biggest advantage of Solar cookers is their eco-friendliness. By exploitation one you’ll decrease your dependence on gas or electricity, cut back your carbon footprint, and save on fuel and therefore the value of fuel on running home appliances. change of state with star cookers clearly needs daylight, that makes it troublesome to use throughout winter months and on rainy days. change of state conjointly takes a considerably longer time compared to traditional strategies. Users should schedule their change of state time and maximize the employment of daylight. As a result, preparation should begin early within the morning in order that the food may be placed in the cooking utensil by noontide.

Explanation:

Hope this helps
