While Jane is running has a kinetic energy, which is Ek = 1/2*m*v^2 where m is mass and v is velocity  When she grabs a vine, she is going to change the kinetic energy to potential energy.  
We know that potential energy is given by Ep = m*g*h where m is mass, g is gravity constant and h is height  
So while running the kinetic energy is Ek = 1/2 * m * 5.2^2 = 13.52*m 
Then all that energy is used to swing upward and gain potential energy 
Ep = m*g*h = Ek = 13.52*m  
m*9.8*h = 13.52*m 
h = 13.52/9.8 = 1.38 meters  
So Jane will swing 1.38 meters upward

Charge is distributed uniformly on the surface of a large flat plate. the electric field 2 cm from the plate is 30 n/c. the elec
AysviL [449]
The electric field produced by a large flat plate with uniform charge density on its surface can be found by using Gauss law, and it is equal to
E= \frac{\sigma}{2\epsilon_0}
where
\sigma is the charge density
\epsilon_0 is the vacuum permittivity

We see that the intensity of the electric field does not depend on the distance from the plate. Therefore, the strenght of the electric field at 4 cm from the plate is equal to the strength of the electric field at 2 cm from the plate:
E=30 N/C

An average human weighs about 600 N
NemiM [27]

Answer:

The distance between them, x = 5809.47 m

Explanation:

Given,

The average weight of a human, w = 600 N

The charge carried by the humans, q = 1.5 C

If 600 N of force acts between two opposite charges, the distance between the charges can be derived from the Coulomb's laws of force,

                          <em>F=\frac{1}{4\pi\epsilon_{0}}\frac{qq}{x^{2}}</em>

Where,

                         \frac{1}{4\pi\epsilon_{0}} = 9 x 10⁹ N m² C⁻²

Therefore

                          x² = 9 x 10⁹ X 1.5² / 600

                              = 33750000

                           x = 5809.46 m

Hence, the distance between the humans should be, x = 5809.47 m

Consider a piston filled with 3 mols of an ideal gas, kept at a constant temperature 290 K. We slowly compress the gas starting
kap26 [50]

Answer: -5013.65\ J

Explanation:

Given

No of moles n=3

Temperature T=290\ K

Initial volume V_1=2\ m^3

Final volume V_2=1\ m^3

Work done in constant temperature process is

W=nRT\ln \left(\dfrac{V_2}{V_1}\right)

Insert the values

\Rightarrow W=3\times 8.314\times 290\ln \left (\dfrac{1}{2}\right)\\\\\Rightarrow W=-870\times 8.314\times \ln (2)\\\Rightarrow W=-5013.65\ J
