Answer:

v = 2.22 m/s

Explanation:

First we apply the second equation of motion to the vertical motion of the body:

s = Vi t + (1/2)gt²

where,

s = y = vertical distance covered = 200 m - 100 m = 100 m

Vi = V₀y = Vertical Component of Initial Velocity = 0 m/s  (because spider man jumps horizontally, thus his velocity has no vertical component initially)

t = Time Taken to Land on 100 m high building = ?

g = 9.8 m/s²

Therefore,

100 m = (0 m/s)t + (0.5)(9.8 m/s²)t²

t² = (100 m)/(4.9 m/s²)

t = √(20.4 s²)

t = 4.5 s

Now, we analyze the horizontal motion. Neglecting air friction, the horizontal motion is uniform with uniform velocity. Therefore,

s = vt

where,

s = x = horizontal distance covered = 10 m

v = V₀ₓ = Horizontal Component of Initial Velocity = Initial Velocity = ?

Therefore,

10 m = v(4.5 s)

v = 10 m/4.5 s

<u>v = 2.22 m/s</u>

How does the function of the parts of the system contribute to its function as a whole
oksano4ka [1.4K]
Answer and explanation: Just as the organs in an organ system work together to accomplish their task, so the different organ systems also cooperate to keep the body running. For example, the respiratory system and the circulatory system work closely together to deliver oxygen to cells and to get rid of the carbon dioxide the cells produce.
