A youngster having a mass of 50.0 kg steps off a 1.00 m high platform. If she keeps her legs fairly rigid and comes to rest in 1

0.0 ms, what is her momentum just as she hits the floor? What average force acts on her during the deceleration?

The average act on her during the deceleration is 4.47 meters per second.                                                                

<u>Explanation</u>:

<u>Given</u>:

youngster mass m = 50.0 kg

She steps off a 1.00 m high platform that is s = 1 meter

She comes to rest in the 10-meter second

<u>To Find</u>:

The average force and momentum

<u>Formulas</u>:

p = m * v

F * Δ t = Δ p

vf^2= vi^2+2as

<u>Solution</u>:

a = 9.8 m/s

vi = 0

vf^2= 0+2(9.8)(1)

vf^2 = 19.6

vf = 4.47 m/s .

Therefore the average force is 4.47 m/s.

Nata [24]
Formula for potential energy is V=mgh, where m is mass in KG, g is earth acceleration (10 m/s^2), and h its height in meters. We know mass, acceleration is constant and also known, we know height also. Lets substitute
V=75*10*300=225000[J]=225[kJ] - its the answer

What happens when light strikes a translucent object?
sammy [17]

Answer:

D)   Some of the light passes through, and some of the light is absorbed or scattered by the object.

Explanation:

When light strikes translucent materials, only some of the light passes through them. The light does not pass directly through the materials. ... When light strikes an opaque object none of it passes through. Most of the light is either reflected by the object or absorbed and converted to heat.

What is the speed of an object after falling (from rest) a distance of 9.80 meters near the surface of the Earth? Assume air
madam [21]

Hi there!

We can use the kinematic equation:

v_f^2 = v_i^2 + 2ad

vf = Final velocity (? m/s)

vi = initial velocity (0 m/s, dropped from rest)

a = acceleration (due to gravity, 9.8 m/s²)

d = distance (9.8 m)

Simplify the equation to solve for vf:

v_f^2 = 0 + 2ad\\\\v_f = \sqrt{2ad}

Substitute in the given values:

v_f = \sqrt{2(9.8)(9.8)} = \boxed{13.86 m/s}
