blsea [12.9K]

Answer:

(a) The announcer's claim is incorrect because the divers enter at a speed of 20.4 and not 25 m/s as announced

(b) it’s possible for a diver to enter the water with the velocity of 25 m/s if he has initial velocity of 14.4 m/s. The upward initial velocity can’t be physically attained

Explanation:

(a)

To find the final velocity $V_{f}$ for an object traveling distance h taking the initial vertical component of velocity as $V_{i}$ the kinematics equation is written as

$V_{f}^{2}=V_{i}^{2}+2ah$ where a is acceleration

Substituting g for a where g is gravitational force value taken as 9.81

$V_{f}^{2}=V_{i}^{2}+2gh$

Since the initial velocity is zero, we can solve for final velocity by substituting figures, note that 70 ft is 21.3 m for h

$V_{f}=\sqrt {(2gh)}= V_{f}=\sqrt {(2*9.81*21.3)}$ = 20.44275

Therefore, the divers enter with a speed of 20.4 m/s

The announcer's claim is incorrect because the divers enter at a speed of 20.4 and not 25 m/s as announced

(b)

The divers can enter water with a velocity of 25 m/s only if they have some initial velocity. Using the kinematic equation

$V_{f}^{2}=V_{i}^{2}+2gh$

Since we have final velocity of 25 m/s

$V_{i}^{2}=2gh-V_{f}^{2}$

$V_{i}=\sqrt{(V_{f}^{2}-2gh)}$

$V_{i}=\sqrt{(25^{2}-2*9.81*21.3)}$ = 14.390761 m/s

Therefore, it’s possible for a diver to enter the water with the velocity of 25 m/5 if he has initial velocity of 14.4 m/s

In conclusion, the upward initial velocity can’t be physically attained

When will you say a body is in a) uniform acceleration (b) non uniform acceleration

s2008m [1.1K]

Answer:

See below ~

Explanation:

Part (a) :

We can say a body is in uniform acceleration if the acceleration of the object remains constant with respect to time throughout its motion.

Part (b) :

We can say a body is non-uniform acceleration if the acceleration of the body varies with respect to time throughout its motion.

You are designing a delivery ramp for crates containing exercise equipment. The 1890 N crates will move at 1.8 m/s at the top of

Mashcka [7]

Answer:

K = 588.3 N/m

Explanation:

From a forces diagram, and knowing that for the maximum value of K, the crate will try to rebound back up (Friction force will point downward):

Fe - Ff - W*sin(22) = 0 Replacing Fe = K*X and then solving for X:

$X = \frac{Ff + W*sin(22)}{K}=\frac{1223}{K}$

By conservation of energy:

$\frac{K*X^{2}}{2}-mg*d*sin(22)-\frac{m*V^{2}}{2}=-Ff*d$

Replacing our previous value for X and solving the equation for K, we get maximum value to prevent the crate from rebound:

K = 588.3 N/m
