To solve this problem we will apply the concepts related to the kinematic equations of motion. We will start calculating the maximum height with the given speed, and once the total height of fall is obtained, we will proceed to calculate with the same formula and the new height, the speed of fall.

The expression to find the change in velocity and the height is,

v_f^2-v_0^2 = -2gh

Replacing,

0^2-16^2 = -2(9.8)h

h = 13.0612m

Thus the total height reached by the ball is

H = 22m+13.0612m

H = 35.0612m

Now calculate the velocity while dropping down from the maximum height as follows

v_f^2-v_0^2 = 2gh

Substituting the new height,

v_f^2 - 0^2 = 2(9.8)(35.0612)

v = \sqrt{687.2}

v = 26.2145m/s

An athlete whose mass is 87.0 kg is performing weight-lifting exercises. Starting from the rest position, he lifts, with constan
expeople1 [14]

Answer: X = 52,314.12 N

Explanation: Let X be the force the feet of the athlete exerts on the floor.

According to newton's third law of motion the floor gives an upward reaction based on the weight of the athlete and the barbell which is known as the normal reaction ( based on the mass of the athlete and the barbell)

Mass of athlete = 87kg, mass of barbell = 600/ hence total normal reaction from the floor = 87* 61.22/ 9.8 *9.8 = 52,200N.

The athlete lifts the barbell from rest thus making it initial velocity u=0, distance covered = S = 0.65m and the time taken = 1.3s

The acceleration of the barbell is gotten by using the equation of constant acceleration motion

S= ut + 1/2at²

But u = 0

S = 1/2at²

0.65 = 1/2 *a (1.3)²

0.65 = 1.69 * a/2

0.65 * 2 = 1.69 * a

a = 0.65 * 2/ 1.69

a = 0.77m/s²

According to newton's second law of motion

Resultant force = mass * acceleration

And resultant force in this case is

X - 52,200 = (87 + 61.22) * 0.77

X - 52,200 = 148.22 * 0.77

X - 52, 200 = 114.132

X = 114.132 + 52,200

X = 52,314.12 N

A paper airplane with mass 0.1 kg is flying 1.5 m above the ground with a speed of 2 m/s. What is the total mechanical energy of
Wewaii [24]
Total mechanical energy = kinetic energy + potential energy
E = KE + PE
E = ½mv² + mgh
E = ½(0.1 kg)(2 m/s)² + (0.1 kg)(9.8 m/s²)(1.5 m)
E = 0.2 J + 1.47 J
E = 1.67 J

How does the resultant displacement change as the angle between two vectors increases from 90° to 120°?
user100 [1]

The resultant displacement between the two vectors will increase.

The resultant of the two vectors is given by parallelogram law of vectors.

The parallelogram law of vector addition states that if two vectors are represented in magnitude and direction by the adjacent sides of a parallelogram, the diagonal of the parallelogram drawn from the point of intersection of the vectors represents the resultant vector in magnitude and direction.

The resultant of these vectors, say vector A, and B, is given as;

R^2 = a^2 + b^2 -2ab.Cos (\theta )

When;

θ = 90°

R^2 = a^2 + b^2

When;

θ = 120°

R^2 = a^2 + b^2 + ab

Thus, the resultant displacement between the two vectors will increase.

If you started the motor of a boat in the middle of a lake, who would detect the sound of the motor first: a friend sitting on t
ArbitrLikvidat [17]

Answer:

A friend snorkeling just below the surface of the water along the same shore will detect the sound first.

Explanation:

  • The speed of sound in water medium is faster than that through the air.
  • Sound propagates through the medium by transferring through the molecules on it. Water has more closely packed molecules due to which the speed is faster.
  • In fact, the sound's speed in water is almost four times faster than that in the air.
  • So the guy in the water surface gets to hear sound faster than the one in sore.
