In some amazing situations, people have survived falling large distances when the surface they land on is soft enough. During a

traverse of Eiger's infamous Nordvand, mountaineer Carlos Ragone's rock anchor gave way and he plummeted 515 feet to land in snow. Amazingly, he suffered only a few bruises and a wrenched shoulder. Assuming that his impact left a hole in the snow 3.5 ft deep, estimate his average acceleration as he slowed to a stop (that is while he was impacting the snow). Pick a coordinate system where down is positive.

A 15kg dog jumps out of a 40kg canoe. If the dogs velocity is 1.2m/s, what is the velocity of the canoe?
vivado [14]

Answer:

v = -0.45 m/s

Explanation:

Assuming the canoe was initially at rest with momentum L = 0

and that the dog's velocity is in the positive direction

conservation of momentum

0 = 15(1.2) + 40v

v = -0.45 m/s

A child sits on a merry-go-round, 1.5 meters from the center. The merry-go-round is turning at a constant rate, and the child is
exis [7]

Answer:

5 .07 s .

Explanation:

The child will move on a circle of radius r

r = 1.5 m

Let the velocity of rotation = v

radial acceleration = v² / r

v² / r = 2.3

v² = 2.3 r = 2.3 x 1.5

= 3.45

v = 1.857 m /s

Time of revolution = 2π r / v

= 2 x 3.14 x 1.5 / 1.857

= 5 .07 s .

The pitchers mound in baseball is 85 meters from home plate . If it takes 4.1 seconds for a pitch to reach the plate , how fast
adoni [48]

Answer: 20.73m/s

Explanation:

The question simply wants us to calculate the speed of the pitch. The speed will be calculated as:

= Distance/Time

where,

Distance = 85 meters

Time = 4.1 seconds

Speed = Distance/Time

Speed = 85/4.1

Speed = 20.73m/s

Therefore, the speed of the pitch is 20.73m/s.
