You jump off a platform 134 m above the Neuse River. After you have free-fallen for the first 40 m, the bungee cord attached to

your ankles starts to stretch. You continue to descend another 80 m before coming to rest. Assume that your mass is 100 kg. What is your acceleration when you are momentarily at rest at the lowest point in the jump

Answer:

The acceleration at lowest point is 19.62 m/s^2

Explanation:

Conservation of energy is an concept in which it is stated that the energy of an isolated object remains the same. Energy changes from one form to another.

Lets Assume

Constant of string is K

By using the conservation of energy we will have the following equation

1/2 x 80^2 x K = m x 9.81 x 120

3200 K =  1177.2 m

K = 1177.2 m / 3200

K = 0.368 m

At the lowest point we will have

a = ( K x X - m x g ) / m

a = ( 0.368 m x 80 - m x 9.81 ) / m

a = 19.62 m / s^2

So, the acceleration at lowest point is 19.62 m/s^2

A capacitor is to be constructed to have a capacitance of 100uF.The area of the plates is 6.om by 0.030m and the relative permit
lara [203]

Answer:

The answer is below

Explanation:

Given that:

The area of the plates is 6 m by 0.030 m, Therefore the area = 6 m × 0.03 m =  0.18 m²

the relative permittivity of dielectric (εr) is 7.0

Permittivity of free space (εo) = 8.854 × 10^(-12)

capacitance of 100uF

potential difference (V) of 12V

d = separation between plate

The capacitance (C) of a capacitor is given by:

C=\frac{\epsilon_o \epsilon_r A }{d}\\ 100*10^{-6}=\frac{8.854*10^{-12}*7*0.18}{d}\\ d=\frac{8.854*10^{-12}*7*0.18}{100*10^{-6}}=1.11*10^{-7}\ m

The electric field between plates is given as:

E = V /d

E = 12 / 1.11*10^{-7}=10.75*10^7\ V/m

A ship, carrying freshwater to a desert island in the caribbean, has a horizontal cross-sectional area of 2800 m2 at the waterli
Alex17521 [72]
<span>Due that we already know the horizontal cross-sectional area of the ship, which is 2800 m2 and we are going to understand that value keeps constant for the whole 9.5 of height of the ship from the waterline till the new waterline after unloading, then we just need to calculate the volume as follows: V = A * H , where V is volume, A is area and H is height V= 2,800 * 9.5 = 26,600 m3 So this volum of 26,600 cubic meters is the volum of freshwater delivered in the island.</span>

A total charge of 4.70 is distributed on two metal spheres. When the spheres are 10 cm apart, they each feel a repulsive force o
Anna35 [415]

Answer:0.114 C

Explanation:

Given

Total 4.7 C is distributed in two spheres

Let q_1 and q_2 be the charges such that

q_1+q_2=4.7

and Force between charge particles is given by

F=\frac{kq_1q_2}{r^2}

4.7\times 10^11=\frac{9\times 10^9\times q_1\cdot q_2}{0.1^2}

q_1\cdot q_2=0.522

put the value of q_1

q_2\left ( 4.7-q_2\right )=0.522

q_2^2-4.7q_2+0.522=0

q_2=\frac{4.7\pm \sqrt{4.7^2-4\times 1\times 0.522}}{2}

q_2=0.114 C

thus q_1=4.586 C
