For sprinters running at 12 m/s around a curved track of radius 26 m, how much greater (as a percentage) is the average total fo
Snezhnost [94]

Answer:

114.86%

Explanation:

In both cases, there is a vertical force equal to the sprinter's weight:

Fy = mg

When running in a circle, there is an additional centripetal force:

Fx = mv²/r

The net force is found with Pythagorean theorem:

F² = Fx² + Fy²

F² = (mv²/r)² + (mg)²

F² = m² ((v²/r)² + g²)

F = m √((v²/r)² + g²)

Compared to just the vertical force:

F / Fy

m √((v²/r)² + g²) / mg

√((v²/r)² + g²) / g

Given v = 12 m/s, r = 26 m, and g = 9.8 m/s²:

√((12²/26)² + 9.8²) / 9.8

1.1486

The force is about 114.86% greater (round as needed).

An instrument is thrown upward with a speed of 15 m/s on the surface of planet X where the acceleration due to gravity is 2.5 m/
Katen [24]
<h2>Answer: 12 s</h2>

Explanation:

The situation described here is parabolic movement. However, as we are told <u>the instrument is thrown upward</u> from the surface, we will only use the equations related to the Y axis.

In this sense, the main movement equation in the Y axis is:

y-y_{o}=V_{o}.t-\frac{1}{2}g.t^{2}    (1)

Where:

y  is the instrument's final position  

y_{o}=0  is the instrument's initial position

V_{o}=15m/s is the instrument's initial velocity

t is the time the parabolic movement lasts

g=2.5\frac{m}{s^{2}}  is the acceleration due to gravity at the surface of planet X.

As we know y_{o}=0  and y=0 when the object hits the ground, equation (1) is rewritten as:

0=V_{o}.t-\frac{1}{2}g.t^{2}    (2)

Finding t:

0=t(V_{o}-\frac{1}{2}g.t^{2})   (3)

t=\frac{2V_{o}}{g}   (4)

t=\frac{2(15m/s)}{2.5\frac{m}{s^{2}}}   (5)

Finally:

t=12s
