The water skier has a mass of 73 kg. Find the magnitude of the
1 answer:
To solve this problem we will apply the linear motion kinematic equations, specifically the concept of acceleration as a function of speed and time, as well as Newton's second law.
PART A) Acceleration can be described as changing the speed in a period of time therefore,
Force is the proportional change between mass and acceleration therefore
PART B) We will apply the same concept given but now we will change the time to 21s therefore:
Now the force

Answer:
a) t = 20 [s]
b) Can't land
Explanation:
To solve this problem we must use kinematics equations, it is of great importance to note that when the plane lands it slows down until it reaches rest, ie the final speed will be zero.
a)
where:
Vf = final velocity = 0
Vi = initial velocity = 100 [m/s]
a = desacceleration = 5 [m/s^2]
t = time [s]
Note: the negative sign of the equation means that the aircraft slows down as it stops.
0 = 100 - 5*t
5*t = 100
t = 20 [s]
b)
Now we can find the distance using the following kinematics equation.
x - xo = distance [m]
x -xo = (0*20) + (0.5*5*20^2)
x - xo = 1000 [m]
1000 [m] = 1 [km]
And the runaway is 0.8 [km], therefore the jetplane needs 1 [km] to land. So the jetpalne can't land
