Kate, a bungee jumper, wants to jump off the edge of a bridge that spans a river below. Kate has a mass m, and the surface of th

e bridge is a height h above the water. The bungee cord, which has length L when unstretched, will first straighten and then stretch as Kate falls. Assume the following: The bungee cord behaves as an ideal spring once it begins to stretch, with spring constant k. Kate doesn't actually jump but simply steps off the edge of the bridge and falls straight downward. Kate's height is negligible compared to the length of the bungee cord. Hence, she can be treated as a point particle. Use g for the magnitude of the acceleration due to gravity.

Answer:

Point motion will eventually stops due to action of g exactly perpendicular...

Explanation:

If ignoring the air resistance, the magnitude of gravitational acceleration is already strong enough to stops the acceleration. As we know that, the spring constant of a bungee spring cord will be F = -k/x, where x is the stretched length and k is the spring constant of bungee cord. If F = ma = w = mg, the g = -m  k/x. Now we can clearly see that the value of g remains constant due to the fluctuating length of the cord as the motion progresses back and forth in SHM say from x1 to x2 and x2 to x1.

mojhsa [17]

Answer:

 D = 9.9 10⁶ mi

Explanation:

In the exercise they give the expression for maximum viewing distance

       D = 2 r h + h²

Ask for this distance for a height of 1100 feet

Let's calculate

        D = 2 3960 1100 + 1100²

        D = 8.712 10⁶ + 1.21 10⁶

        D = 9.92 10⁶ mi

         D = 9.9 10⁶ mi

The amount of energy necessary to remove an electron from an atom is a quantity called the ionization energy, Ei. This energy ca
Verizon [17]

Answer:

The value is E_i  =  1.5596 *10^{-18} \  J

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

The wavelength is \lambda  =  48.2 nm  =  48.2  *10^{- 9 }\  m

The velocity is v = 2.371*10^6 \ m/s

The mass of electron is m_e  =  9.109*10^{-31} \  kg

Generally the energy of the incident light is mathematically represented as

E =  \frac{h *  c}{\lambda}

Here c is the speed of light with value c =  3.0 *10^{8} \  m/s

h is the Planck constant with value h = 6.62607015 *  10^{-34 }  J\cdot s

So

E =  \frac{6.62607015 *  10^{-34 }* 3.0 *10^{8}}{48.2  *10^{- 9 }}

=> E = 4.12 *10^{-18} \  J

Generally the kinetic energy is mathematically represented as

E_k  =  \frac{1}{2} *  m_e * v^2

=> E_k  =  \frac{1}{2} *  9.109*10^{-31} * (2.371*10^6 )^2

=> E_k  =  2.56 *0^{-18} \  J

Generally the ionization energy is mathematically represented as

E_i  =  4.12 *10^{-18} -   2.56 *0^{-18}

=>     E_i  =  1.5596 *10^{-18} \  J

A dragster starts with zero velocity and completes a 404.5 m (0.2528 mile) run in 4.922 s. If the car had a constant acceleratio
KIM [24]

Answer:

a. a=33.34ms⁻², V=164.4m/s

Explanation:

Since the dragster started with zero velocity, de determine the acceleration using of the equations of motion.

Below are the data given

Distance, s=404.5m,

time taken,t=4.922secs

Using the equation

S=ut+1/2at²

where u is the initial velocity and u=0

Making the acceleration the subject of the formula, we arrive at

a=2s/t²

a=(2*404.5)/4.922²

a=33.34ms⁻².

To determine the velocity, we use

V=u+at

V=0+33.34ms⁻² *4.922sec

V=164.4m/s
