Answer:

Sonia O'Sullivan (born 28 November 1969) is an Irish former track and field athlete. She won a gold medal in the 5000 metres at the 1995 World Championships, and a silver medal in the 5000 metres at the 2000 Olympic Games.[1] Her 2000 m world record of 5:25.36, set in 1994 stood until 2017.[2]

O'Sullivan first came to prominence when winning the 1500 m at the 1991 Universiade, before going on to finish fourth in the 3000 m final at the 1992 Olympic Games. She then won a silver medal in the 1500 m at the 1993 World Championships. She was the favourite for the 5000 m title at the 1996 Olympic Games but dropped out of the final due to illness. As well as her 1995 World title, she won three gold medals at the European Championships, in the 3000 m (1994), 5000 m (1998) and 10,000 m (1998), and is a two-time World Cross Country Champion.

O'Sullivan won silver medals in the 5000 m and 10,000 m at the 2002 European Championships, and competed at her fourth Olympic Games in 2004. She is known for her dramatic kick, clocking 28-second final 200 m splits in some of her races.[3]

She is the one of two women (the other Tirunesh Dibaba) who won the short and long course World Cross Country title at the same championship (1998 in Marrakesh).[4]

Bingel [31]

Mike enters a revolving door that is not moving. Mike should push at the edge of the door where it is largest distance from the pivot point in order to produce a torque with the least amount of force. Torque is equal to t = force x distance.

A man can jump 1.5 m on earth. calculate the approximate

Olegator [25]

Answer:

18 m

Explanation:

G = Gravitational constant

m = Mass of planet = $\rho V$

$\rho$ = Density of planet

V = Volume of planet assuming it is a sphere = $\dfrac{4}{3}\pi r^3$

r = Radius of planet

Acceleration due to gravity on a planet is given by

$g=\dfrac{Gm}{r^2}\\\Rightarrow g=\dfrac{G\rho V}{r^2}\\\Rightarrow g=\dfrac{G\rho \dfrac{4}{3}\pi r^3}{r^2}\\\Rightarrow g=\dfrac{4G\rho\pi r}{3}$

So,

$g\propto \rho r$

Density of other planet = $\rho_p=\dfrac{1}{4}\rho_e$

Radius of other planet = $r_p=\dfrac{1}{3}r_e$

$\dfrac{g_e}{g_p}=\dfrac{\rho_e r_e}{\rho_p r_p}\\\Rightarrow \dfrac{g_e}{g_p}=\dfrac{\rho_e r_e}{\dfrac{1}{4}\rho_e\times \dfrac{1}{3}r_e}\\\Rightarrow \dfrac{g_e}{g_p}=12\\\Rightarrow g_p=\dfrac{g_e}{12}\\\Rightarrow g_p=\dfrac{9.8}{12}$

Since the person is jumping up the acceleration due to gravity will be negative.

From kinematic equations we have

$v^2-u^2=2g_es\\\Rightarrow u^2=v^2-2g_es\\\Rightarrow u^2=0-2\times -9.8\times 1.5\\\Rightarrow u^2=2\times 9.8\times 1.5$

On the other planet

$v^2-u^2=2g_ps\\\Rightarrow s=\dfrac{v^2-u^2}{2g_p}\\\Rightarrow s=\dfrac{0-(2\times 9.8\times 1.5)}{2\times -\dfrac{9.8}{12}}\\\Rightarrow s=18\ \text{m}$
