The drawing below shows a person who, starting from rest at the top of a cliff, swings down at the end of a rope, releases it, a

nd falls into the water below. There are two paths by which the person can enter the water. Suppose he enters the water at a speed of 16.5 m/s via path 1. How fast is he moving on path 2 when he releases the rope at a height of 3.55 m above the water? Ignore the effects of air resistance.

Answer:

v = 14.23 m/s

Explanation:

As per energy conservation we can say that during path 1. his initial total mechanical energy must be equal to final total mechanical energy

So we will have

mgH = \frac{1}{2}mv^2

so we will have

m(9.81)(H) = \frac{1}{2}m(16.5)^2

H = 13.88 m

Now while he is moving on path 2. then again we can use energy conservation to find the speed

mg(H - y) = \frac{1}{2}mv^2

m(9.81)(13.88 - 3.55) = \frac{1}{2}m v^2

v = 14.23 m/s

In which situation is maximum work considered to be done by a force?
umka2103 [35]

Answer:

A) When the angle between the Force (F) and Displacement (x) is 0°, because, Work done (W) is directly proportional to the Cosine of the Angle between the Force applied and the resultant displacement of the subject.

W = F•x cos ∅

If ∅ = 0°,

W = F•x ===> Maximum Work Done.

If ∅ = 45°,

W = F•x/√2

If ∅ = 90°,

W = 0

If ∅ = 180°,

W = –F•x ===> Minimum Work Done.
