Answer:
t = 0.051 seconds
Explanation:
Given that,
A skydiver jumped out of a plane and fell 9 miles to the ground. It means 9 miles is the distance covered.
The average speed of the skydiver is 174 miles/hour
We need to find the time for which he dive last. It means t is the time taken. Total distance covered divided by time taken is called average speed. So,
So, a skydiver dive for 0.051 seconds.
Answer:
a = 5.05 x 10¹⁴ m/s²
Explanation:
Consider the motion along the horizontal direction
= velocity along the horizontal direction = 3.0 x 10⁶ m/s
t = time of travel
X = horizontal distance traveled = 11 cm = 0.11 m
Time of travel can be given as
inserting the values
t = 0.11/(3.0 x 10⁶)
t = 3.67 x 10⁻⁸ sec
Consider the motion along the vertical direction
Y = vertical distance traveled = 34 cm = 0.34 m
a = acceleration = ?
t = time of travel = 3.67 x 10⁻⁸ sec
= initial velocity along the vertical direction = 0 m/s
Using the kinematics equation
Y = t + (0.5) a t²
0.34 = (0) (3.67 x 10⁻⁸) + (0.5) a (3.67 x 10⁻⁸)²
a = 5.05 x 10¹⁴ m/s²
