At one particular moment, a 19.0 kg toboggan is moving over a horizontal surface of snow at 3.60 m/s. After 6.75 s have elapsed,

the toboggan stops. Use a momentum approach to find the magnitude of the average friction force (in N) acting on the toboggan while it was moving.

Answer:

Friction force acting on the toboggan is  10.13 N.

Explanation:

Momentum is defined as the product of mass and its velocity,i.e,

p = m × v

Thus, initial momentum will be :-

p₁ = 19.0 × 3.60

    = 68.4 kg m/s

Final momentum will be ;_

p₂ = 19.0 × 0

   = 0 kg m/s

Now, Force is defined as the rate of change of linear momentum,i.e,

F = dp/dt

Thus, F = \frac{p_{2} - p_{1}  }{t}

            = \frac{0 - 68.4}{6.75}

            = - 10.13 N

Negative sign just signifies that force is acting in a direction opposite to the direction of motion.

A high-jump athlete leaves the ground, lifting her center of mass 1.8 m and crossing the bar with a horizontal velocity of 1.4 m
Romashka [77]

Answer:

The minimum speed when she leave the ground is 6.10 m/s.

Explanation:

Given that,

Horizontal velocity = 1.4 m/s

Height = 1.8 m

We need to calculate the minimum speed must she leave the ground

Using conservation of energy

K.E+P.E=P.E+K.E

\dfrac{1}{2}mv_{1}^2+0=mgh+\dfrac{1}{2}mv_{2}^2

\dfrac{v_{1}^2}{2}=gh+\dfrac{v_{2}^2}{2}

Put the value into the formula

\dfrac{v_{1}^2}{2}=9.8\times1.8+\dfrac{(1.4)^2}{2}

\dfrac{v_{1}^2}{2}=18.62

v_{1}=\sqrt{2\times18.62}

v_{1}=6.10\ m/s

Hence, The minimum speed when she leave the ground is 6.10 m/s.

Beams used in Heavy Timber construction are sometimes firecut. This is done to: a) allow air circulation at the beam’s end in an
ladessa [460]

Answer:

option C

Explanation:

The correct answer is option C

Fire cut of fireman cut is diagonal cut which is provided at the end of the beam to prevent the fall of masonry wall if a fire breaks out in the building.

Fire cut allows joist to leave if it fails without affecting the masonry wall standing.

Without fire cut, the burnt beam will rotate downward affecting the connection of beam and wall and leading to damage it.
