Superman can leap over tall buildings in a single bound. What does he do to the ground beneath him? Assume his mass is 100.0 ± 0

.1 kg and his hips drop by 0.300 ± 0.020 m before he jumps. If he can jump over the top of PNC Plaza (tallest building in Raleigh), which is 164 ± 1 m, calculate the following with uncertainties:
a. Takeoff velocity
b. Acceleration just before takeoff
c. Force on ground at take off

Answer:

Explanation:

Height reached = 164m

If velocity of launch be u

u² = 2gh

= 2 x 9.8 x 164

= 3214.4

u = 56.7 m /s

difference in u = 1/2  (diff in h / h) x u

1/2 x 1/164 x 56.7

.17 or .2

u = 56.7 ± .2 m /s

or 57± 1

b )  During the displacement of .300 m , there is acceleration to achieve velocity of 56.7 m /s

v² = 2as

a = v² / 2s

= 56.7² / (2 x .3)

= 5358.15 m /s²

diff in a

= 1/2 x (.02 / .3) x 5358.15

178.6

a = 5358.1 ±178.6

c ) force on the ground

mass ( g + a )

= 100 x ( 9.8 +5358.1)

= 536790 N

error  in force = (.1/100 + 178.6 / 5358 ) x 536790

=( .01 +.03)x 536790

= 21471

(536790 ± 21471) N

What is the purpose of the scapula to move during arm elevation?
Inessa [10]

The purpose of the scapula to move during arm elevation is increase the range of elevation of the arm.

<h3>What is the importance of movement of the scapula during arm elevation?</h3>

The scapula is an important bone which is found in the shoulder and back region of the body.

The scapula enables and increases the range of motion of the arm with its motions.

During arm elevation, the scapula undergoes an upward rotational motion.

Therefore, the  purpose of the scapula to move during arm elevation is increase the range of elevation of the arm.
