A kangaroo can jump over an object 2.46 m high. (a) Calculate its vertical speed (in m/s) when it leaves the ground.
Elenna [48]

Answer:

a) 6.95 m/s

b) 1.42 seconds

Explanation:

t = Time taken

u = Initial velocity

v = Final velocity

s = Displacement

a = Acceleration due to gravity = 9.81 m/s²

v^2-u^2=2as\\\Rightarrow -u^2=2as-v^2\\\Rightarrow -u^2=2\times -9.81\times 2.46-0^2\\\Rightarrow u=\sqrt{2\times 9.81\times 2.46}\\\Rightarrow u=6.95\ m/s

a) The vertical speed when it leaves the ground. is 6.95 m/s

v=u+at\\\Rightarrow t=\frac{v-u}{a}\\\Rightarrow t=\frac{0-6.95}{-9.81}\\\Rightarrow t=0.71\ s

Time taken to reach the maximum height is 0.71 seconds

s=ut+\frac{1}{2}at^2\\\Rightarrow 2.46=0t+\frac{1}{2}\times 9.81\times t^2\\\Rightarrow t=\sqrt{\frac{2.46\times 2}{9.81}}\\\Rightarrow t=0.71\ s

Time taken to reach the ground from the maximum height is 0.71 seconds

b) Time it stayed in the air is 0.71+0.71 = 1.42 seconds

A bicyclist starts at rest and speeds up to 30 m/s while accelerating at 4 m/s^2. Determine the distance traveled.
raketka [301]

Answer:

Distance, d = 112.5 meters

Explanation:

Initially, the bicyclist is at rest, u = 0

Final speed of the bicyclist, v = 30 m/s

Acceleration of the bicycle, a=4\ m/s^2

Let s is the distance travelled by the bicyclist. The third equation of motion is given as :

v^2-u^2=2as

s=\dfrac{v^2-u^2}{2a}

s=\dfrac{(30)^2}{2\times 4}

s = 112.5 meters

So, the distance travelled by the bicyclist is 112.5 meters. Hence, this is the required solution.

Two ice skaters collide on the ice. A 39.6-kg skater moving South at 6.21 m/s collides with a 52.1-kg skater moving East at 4.33
Stells [14]

Answer:

V = 3.6385 m/s

θ = 47.46 degrees

Explanation:

the important data in the question is:

Skater 1:

M_1= 39.6 kg

direction: south (axis y)

V_{1iy} = 6.21 m/s

Skater 2:

M_2 = 52.1 kg

direction: east (axis x)

V_{2ix} = 4.33 m/s

Now using the law of the conservation of linear momentum ( P_i = P_f and knowing that the collision is inelastic we can do the next equations:

M_{1}V_{1ix}+M_2V_{2ix} = V_{sx}(M_1+M_2)  (eq. 1)

M_{1}V_{1iy}+M_2V_{2iy} = V_{sy}(M_1+M_2)  (eq. 2)

Where V_{sx} and V_{sy} is the velocity of the sistem in x and y after the collision.

Note: the conservation of the linear momentum have to be make once by each axis.

Now, in the (eq. 1) the skater 1 don't have velocity in the axis x, so we can replace V_{1ix} by 0 in the equation and get:

M_2V_{2ix} = V_{sx}(M_1+M_2)  (eq. 1)

also, in the (eq. 2) the skater 2 don't have velocity in the axis y, so we can replace V_{2iy} by 0 in the equation and get:

M_{1}V_{1iy} = V_{sy}(M_1+M_2)  (eq. 2)

Now, we just replace the data in both equations:

(52.1)(4.33) = V_{sx}(39.6+52.1)  (eq. 1)

(39.6)(6.21) = V_{sy}(39.6+52.1)  (eq. 2)

solving for V_{sx] and V_{sy} we have:

V_{sx] = 2.46 m/s

V_{sy] = 2.681 m/s

using the pythagoras theorem we can find the magnitude of the velocity as:

V = \sqrt{2.46^2+2.681^2}

V = 3.6385 m/s

For find the direction we just need to do this;

θ = tan^{-1}(\frac{2.681}{1.46})

θ = 47.46 degrees
