A hypothesis can be described as an intelligent guess
Answer:
2
Explanation:
A rigid body is not elastic.
i.e. it does not change shape.
Answer:
t = 0.319 s
Explanation:
With the sudden movement of the athlete a pulse is formed that takes time to move along the rope, the speed of the rope is given by
v = √T/λ
Linear density is
λ = m / L
λ = 4/20
λ = 0.2 kg / m
The tension in the rope is equal to the athlete's weight, suppose it has a mass of m = 80 kg
T = W = mg
T = 80 9.8
T = 784 N
The pulse rate is
v = √(784 / 0.2)
v = 62.6 m / s
The time it takes to reach the hook can be searched with kinematics
v = x / t
t = x / v
t = 20 / 62.6
t = 0.319 s
Answer:
4 m/
Explanation:
From Equilibrium of forces, The Tension in string is cancelled by the Weight (product of mass and acceleration due to gravity) of the body acting downwards.
The Net force = Mass * Acceleration.
Since Net Force = 20 Newton, Mass = 5kg, therefore;
20 = 5kg * acceleration. Dividing the RHS and LHS of the equation by 5, we have;
Acceleration = 
which gives 4.
Note: RHS means Right Hand Side.
LHS means Left Hand Side.
