Explain why it is dangerous to jump from a fast moving train

Physics
1 answer:
Sergeu [11.5K]3 years ago
7 0

Answer:

When you jump off a train, you jump off a certain height and your downwards (vertical) velocity is zero. But your forward (horizontal) velocity is not. You will hit the ground on split second with your horizontal velocity practically the same as the train.

Explanation:

you be in serious injury.

Erase all the trajectories, and fire the pumpkin vertically again with an initial speed of 14 m/s. As you found earlier, the max
yanalaym [24]

Answer:

\theta=39.49^{\circ}

Explanation:

Maximum height of the pumpkin, H_{max}=9.99\ m

Initial speed, v = 22 m/s

We need to find the angle with which the pumpkin is fired. the maximum height of the projectile is given by :

H_{max}=\dfrac{v^2\ sin^2\theta}{2g}

On rearranging the above equation, to find the angle as :

\theta=sin^{-1}(\dfrac{\sqrt{2gH_{max}}}{v})

\theta=sin^{-1}(\dfrac{\sqrt{2\times 9.8\times 9.99}}{22})

\theta=39.49^{\circ}

So, the angle with which the pumpkin is fired is 39.49 degrees. Hence, this is the required solution.

In pairs figure-skating competition, a 65-kg man and his 45-kg female partner stand facing each other both at rest on the ice. I
Lina20 [59]

Answer:

The final velocity of her partner is approximately -1.04 m/s or 1.04 m/s in the opposite direction to her direction of motion

Explanation:

The given parameters are;

The mass of the man, m₁ = 65 kg

The mass of the woman, m₂ = 45 kg

Taking the relative initial velocity of the man and the woman as 0 m/s, we have;

The initial velocity of the man, v₁₁ = 0 m/s

The initial velocity of the man, v₁₂ = 0 m/s

The final velocity of the woman, v₂₂ = 1.5 m/s

The final velocity of the man = v₂₁

Therefore, we have, by the conservation of momentum principle;

The total initial momentum = The total final momentum

Which gives;

m₁ × v₁₁ + m₂ × v₁₂ = m₁ × v₂₁ + m₂ × v₂₂

Substituting the known values;

65 × 0 + 45 × 0 = 65 × v₂₁ + 45 × 1.5

∴ 65 × v₂₁ + 45 × 1.5 = 0

45 × 1.5 = - 65 × v₂₁

v₂₁ = 45 × 1.5/(-65) ≈ -1.04 m/s

The final velocity of the man, her partner = v₂₁ ≈ -1.04 m/s.

soldier1979 [14.2K]

Answer:

Chloride and Salt

Explanation:

that make up table salt, a.k.a. sodium chloride (NaCl). ... As sodium chloride (NaCl) or calcium chloride (CaCl2) dissolve in water, ... the compound formed when a positive ion combines with a negative ion out of solution, but ... waters may have more if there is weathering or leaching from nearby mineral-rich soils and rocks.

Two ladybugs sit on a rotating disk that is slowing down at a constant rate. The ladybugs are at rest with respect to the surfac
d1i1m1o1n [39]

The two ladybugs have same rotational (angular) speed

Explanation:

The rotational (angular) speed of an object in circular motion is defined as:

\omega=\frac{\theta}{t}

where

\theta is the angular displacement

t is the time interval considered

Here we have two ladybugs, which are located at two different distances from the axis. In particular, ladybug 1 is halfway between ladybug 2 and the axis of rotation. However, since they rotate together with the disk, and the disk is a rigid body, every point of the disk cover the same angle \theta in the same time t: this means that every point along the disk has the same angular speed, and therefore the two ladybugs also have the same angular speed.

On the other hand, the linear speed of the two ladybugs is different, because it follows the equation:

v=\omega r

where r is the distance from the axis: and since the two ladybugs are located at different r, they have different linear speed.
