According to Newton's Second Law of Motion, the net force is equal to the product of the system's mass and acceleration. There are two forces acting on a jumper once he jumps: gravitational force and upward force. The solution is as follows:

Net Force = mass * acceleration
Upward Force - Gravitational Force = mass*4*gravity
F - mg = 4mg
F = 4mg + mg
F = 5mg

Thus, the force must be five times greater than the gravitational force.

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

A beam of light in air is incident at an angle of 30º to the surface of a rectangular block of clear plastic (n = 1.46). The lig
Aneli [31]

Answer:

θ = 30°

Explanation:

Firts, the angle when the beam of light passes through the block cam be calculated using Snell Law:

n_{1}sin(\theta_{1}) = n_{2}sin(\theeta_{2})

<u>Where</u>:

n₁: is the index of refraction of the incident medium (air) = 1

θ₁: is the incident angle = 30°

n₂: is the medium 2 (plastic) = 1.46

θ₂: is the transmission angle

Hence, θ₂ is:

sin(\theta_{2}) = \frac{n_{1}*sin(\theta_{1})}{n_{2}} = \frac{1*sin(30)}{1.46} = 0.34 \rightarrow \theta_{2} = 20.03 ^{\circ}

Now, when the beam of light re-emerges from the opposite side, we have:

n₁: is the index of refraction of the incident medium (plastic) = 1.46  

θ₁: is the incident angle = 20.03°                

n₂: is the medium 2 (air) = 1

θ₂: is the transmission angle

Hence, the angle to the normal to that surface (θ₂) is:

sin(\theta_{2}) = \frac{n_{1}*sin(\theta_{1})}{n_{2}} = \frac{1.46*sin(20.03)}{1} = 0.50 \rightarrow \theta_{2} = 30 ^{\circ}  

 

Therefore, we have that the beam of light will come out at the same angle of when it went in, since, it goes from air and enters to a plastic medium and then enters again in this medium to go out to air again. This was proved using the Snell Law.    

I hope it helps you!
