Answer:

Janet jumps off a high diving platform with a horizontal velocity of 2.89 m per s and lands in the water 1.5 s later. How high is the platform?

Platform is 11.025 meters high .

Explanation:

we have Vx = 2.89 m/s

time taken = 1.5 seconds

height of the platform = ?

so,

As Janet is jumping from a high diving platform from a certain unknown height their must be involvement of gravity in action.

we can use,

h = Vi*t+(1/2)*g*t^2

where ,

h = height

Vi = initial horizontal velocity that will be zero

t = time in seconds

g = gravity due to acceleration

now put the values

h = 0+(1/2)*(9.8)*(1.5)^2

h = 11.025-m

Determine the speed of the 50-kg cylinder after it has descended a distance of 2 m, starting from rest. Gear A has a mass of 10
Naddika [18.5K]

This question is incomplete, the missing image is uploaded along this answer below.

Answer:

the speed of the 50-kg cylinder after it has descended is 3.67 m/s

Explanation:

 Given the data in the question and the image below;

relation between velocity of cylinder and velocity of the drum is;

V_D = ω_c × r_c  ----- let this be equ 1

where V_D is velocity of cylinder,  ω_c is the angular velocity of drum C and r_c is the radius of drum C

Now, Angular velocity of gear B is;

ω_B = ω_C

ω_B = V_D / r_c  -------- let this equ 2

so;

V_D / 0.1 m = 10V_D

Next, we determine the angular velocity of gear A;

from the diagram;

ω_A( 0.15 m ) = ω_B( 0.2 m )

from equation 2; ω_B = V_D / r_c

so

ω_A( 0.15 m ) = (V_D / r_c ) 0.2 m

substitutive in value of radius r_c (0.1 m)

ω_A( 0.15 m ) = (V_D / 0.1 m ) 0.2 m

ω_A( 0.15 ) = 0.2V_D / 0.1

ω_A =  2V_D  / 0.15

ω_A = 13.333V_D   ----- let this be equation 3

To get the speed of the cylinder, we use energy conversation;

assuming that the final position is;

T₁ + ∑U_{1-2 = T₂

0 + m_Dgh = \frac{1}{2}m_DV²_D + \frac{1}{2}I_Aω²_A + \frac{1}{2}I_Bω²_B

so

m_Dgh = \frac{1}{2}m_DV²_D + \frac{1}{2}(m_Ak_A²)(13.333V_D)² + \frac{1}{2}(m_Bk_B²)(10V_D)²

we given that; m_D = 50 kg, h = 2 m, m_A = 10 kg, k_A 125 mm = 0.125 m, m_B = 30 kg, k_B = 150 mm = 0.15 m.

we know that; g = 9.81 m/s²

so we substitute

50 × 9.81 × 2 = ( \frac{1}{2} × 50 × V_D²) + \frac{1}{2}( 10 × (0.125)² )(13.333V_D)² + \frac{1}{2}( 30 × (0.15)²)(10V_D)²

981 = 25V_D² + 13.888V_D² + 33.75V_D²

981 = 72.638V_D²

V_D² = 981 / 72.638

V_D² = 13.5053

V_D = √13.5053

V_D = 3.674955 ≈ 3.67 m/s

Therefore,  the speed of the 50-kg cylinder after it has descended is 3.67 m/s

Why are there so few eclipses in 2014?
Sonbull [250]

Answer:

Because the Moon casts a smaller shadow than Earth does, eclipses of the Sun tightly constrain where you can see them. If the Moon completely hides the Sun, even for a moment, the eclipse is considered total.
