Spiderman, whose mass is 70.0 kg, is dangling on the free end of a 12.2-m-long rope, the other end of which is fixed to a tree l

imb above. By repeatedly bending at the waist, he is able to get the rope in motion, eventually getting it to swing enough that he can reach a ledge when the rope makes a θ = 58.4° angle with the vertical. How much work was done by the gravitational force on Spiderman in this maneuver?

Answer:

U = -3978.8 J

Explanation:

The work of the gravitational force U just depends of the heigth and is calculated as:

U = -mgh

Where m is the mass, g is the gravitational acceleration and h the alture.

for calculate the alture we will use the following equation:

h = L-Lcos(θ)

Where L is the large of the rope and θ is the angle.

Replacing data:

h = 12.2-12.2cos(58.4)

h = 5.8 m

Finally U is equal to:

U = -70(9.8)(5.8)

U = -3,978.8 J

2) acceleration = final velocity - initial velocity / time —> V-U/T
Acceleration is the change in velocity over the change in time so it can be represented by the equation a = Δv/Δt.
3) first one- F=10.5 N
second one- 4 m/s^2
third one- 1200N

Discuss how a photon (aka the light particle) can be affected by gravity despite being massless.
Over [174]

Explanation:

Light is clearly affected by gravity, just think about a black hole, but light supposedly has no mass and gravity only affects objects with mass. On the other hand, if light does have mass then doesn't mass become infinitely larger the closer to the speed of light an object travels.

If a spear is jabbeb exactly at that place where the fish appears in water, the fish is not killed
Korvikt [17]

You have learned your lesson well, Suhay. Your statement is correct.

The light rays from the fish BEND when they flow out of the water into the air. But our primitive brain still believes that the light rays flow STRAIGHT from the fish. The result is that the fish does not APPEAR to be at that place where it really is.

Why are the poles and slightly lower latitudes so cold in the summertime when they receive almost 24 hours of daylight? I know t
castortr0y [4]

Explanation:

As the earth travels around the sun in the elliptical orbit it must also be know that the axis of the earth is tilted as well.

  • So when the earth is at the farthest point and the tilt of the earth's axis is towards the sun in that case the sun rays always incident on the surface of the earth near the poles and hence there is sunlight for the 24 hours of the day. But the intensity of these rays is very low because of the their slanted angle of incident. In other words the same sun rays cover a larger area and the luminous intensity is reduced.
  • When the earth is near to the sun we have an increased average temperature of the day during that phase giving us an experience of summer season and vice-versa is the condition in winter seasons. The tilt of the earths axis is responsible for variation in extremities of the seasons with respect to the geographical location.
