A 60.0 kg ballet dancer stands on her toes during a performance with four square inches (26.0 cm2) in contact with the floor. Wh

at is the pressure exerted by the floor over the area of contact in the following cases?
(a) if the dancer is stationary
(b) if the dancer is leaping upwards with an acceleration of 5.00 m/s2

Answer:

Explanation:

Given

Mass of dancer m=60\ kg

Area of contact A=26\ cm^2

(a)If dancer is stationary

Pressure exerted by Floor is given by load per unit area of contact

P=\frac{weight}{A}

P=\frac{mg}{A}

P=\frac{60\times 9.8}{26\times 10^{-4}}

P=226.153 kN

(b)If dancer is leaping upwards with an acceleration of a=5 m/s^2

So apparent weight of dancer is W'=mg+ma

W'=m(g+a)=60\cdot (9.8+5)

W'=888\ N

Pressure=\frac{W'}{A}

Pressure=\frac{888}{26\times 10^{-4}}

=341.53\ kN

What’s the answer to 12
Schach [20]

Speed is v = d/t

Or speed is distance over time

So...

40min / 60min = 0.6667 or 2/3 --> Finding what proportion 40 minutes is to an hour or 60 minutes as we need the units of hours to match up

45km/h = d/0.6667h

d = (45)(0.667)

d = 30.0015 or 30km

A particle moves along the x axis so that its velocity at time t is given by v(t)=
vodomira [7]

Answer:

a = 0.7267 ,  acceleration is positive therefore the speed is increasing  

Explanation:

The definition of acceleration is

         a = dv / dt

they give us the function of speed

         v = - (t-1) sin (t² / 2)

         a = - sin (t²/2) -  (t-1) cos (t²/2)  2t / 2

         a = - sin (t²/2) - t (t-1)  cos (t²/2)

the acceleration for t = 4 s

          a = - sin (4²/2) - 4 (4-1) cos (4²/2)

          a = -sin 8 - 12 cos 8

remember that the angles are in radians

          a = 0.7267

the problem does not indicate the units, but to be correct they must be m/s²

We see that the acceleration is positive therefore the speed is increasing
