a=(Vf-Vi)/t = [(0 m/s)-(45m/s)/(10s)=-45/10m/s^2= -4.5m/s^2
1. The problem statement, all variables and given/known data A person jumps from the roof of a house 3.4 meters high. When he strikes the ground below, he bends his knees so that his torso decelerates over an approximate distance of 0.70 meters. If the mass of his torso (excluding legs) is 41 kg. A. Find his velocity just before his feet strike the ground. B. Find the average force exerted on his torso by his legs during deceleration. 2. Relevant equations I can't even seem to figure that part out. Help please? 3. The attempt at a solution I don't know how to start this at all
A number might be rounded when determining the number of people who will attend a basketball game. A number should not be rounded when determining the number of students who will participate in a chemistry lab. Only an estimate is needed for attendance at a basketball game because everyone will still get to see the game. In a chemistry lab the correct number of students should be known so that everybody has the proper equipment to use.
Answer:
11.94
Explanation:
Remark
Find the Potential Energy at the top.
Givens
m = 65 kg
h = 16.2 m
g = 9.81
PE = 65 * 9.81 * 16.2
PE = 10329.93
The tricky part is what do you do about Friction?
Formula
PE = Friction + KE
Solution
PE = 10329.93 Joules
Friction = 5700 Joules
Find the KE
10329.93 = 5700 + KE
KE = 10329.93 - 5700
KE = 4629.93
Find V from the KE formula
KE = 4629.93
m = 65
KE = 1/2 m v^2
KE = 1/2 65 v^2
4629.93 = 1/2 65 v^2
v^2 = 142.46
v = √142.46
v = 11.94
