What force (in N) does a trampoline have to apply to a 46.0 kg gymnast to accelerate her straight up at 5.30 m/s2? Note that the

answer is independent of the velocity of the gymnast—she can be moving either up or down, or be stationary. (Enter the magnitude.)

So draw a free body diagram. Let the top be the increasing direction for y and let the bottom be the decreasing direction. All other coordinates are trivial for the problem. You will notice that during the time of impact with the trampoline, there are two forces in the y direction, the weight of the gymnast and the force exerted by the trampoline. The y component of the total force is:

F_{y}=F_{T}-mg

where F_T is the force exerted by the trampoline. According to Newton's Second Law, we have the differential equation:

F_{y}=m\ddot{y}=F_{T}-mg

Dividing both sides by m we get:

\ddot{y}=\frac{F_{T}}{m}-g

which is the acceleration in the y direction. Now solving for F_T we get:

F_{T}=m(\ddot{y}+g)

Now plugging in m=46.0 kg, the acceleration in the y=5.30 m/s^2 and g=9.8 m/s^2, we get

\[F_{T}=694.6 N\] if I am not mistaken.

Hope this helped.

Answer:

The force acting on the trampoline is 694.6 N.

Explanation:

It is given that,

Mass of gymnast, m = 46 kg

Acceleration of the gymnast, a=5.3\ m/s^2 (upward direction)

Let F_{net} is the net force acting on the trampoline, F is the force exerted by the trampoline mg is the weight force acting due to gravity. As the gymnast is accelerating up, so,

F_{net}=F-mg

ma=F-mg

F=mg+ma

F=m(g+a)

F=46\times (9.8+5.3)

F = 694.6 N

So, the force acting on the trampoline is 694.6 N. Hence, this is the required solution.

Explain why the ion formed has a positive charge
AleksAgata [21]
When an ion is formed, the number of protons does not change. ... By removing an electron from this atom we get a positively charged Na+ ionthat has a net charge of +1. Atoms that gain extra electrons become negatively charged. A neutral chlorine atom, for example, contains 17 protons and 17 electrons.

Yanka [14]

Answer:

h = 1.02 m

Explanation:

This is a fluid mechanics exercise, where the pressure is given by

       P = P_{atm} + ρ g h

The gauge pressure is

      P - P_{atm}  = ρ g h

In this case the upper part of the tube we have the atmospheric pressure. and the diver can exert a pressure 10 KPa below the outside pressure, this must be the gauge pressure

     P_{m} =    P - P_{atm}

     P_{m} = ρ g h

     h =P_{m} / ρ g

calculate

     h = 10 103 / (1000 9.8)

     h = 1.02 m

This is the depth at which man can breathe
