Answer:

a) F = 100.375 N

b) F = 38.252 N

Explanation:

a) she is accelerated from rest to a speed of 11 m/s in 8.0 s

We get the acceleration we use this equation,

v = u + at

where v is the final velocity - 11 m/s

u = initial velocity = 0 m/s (from rest)

t is time taken = 8 s

Since v = u + at  

11 = 0 + a×8

8a = 11

a = 11/8 = 1.375

a = 1.375 m/s²

The force equation is given by:

F = ma

F is the force, m is mass = 73 kg and a is acceleration

F = 73 × 1.375 = 100.375

F = 100.375 N

(b) she lets go of the tow rope and glides to a halt in 21 s.

We get the acceleration we use this equation,

v = u + at

where v is the final velocity = 0 m/s (to a halt)

u = initial velocity = 11 m/s

t is time taken = 21 s

Since v = u + at  

0 = 11 + a×21

21a = -11

a = -11/21 = -0.524

a = 0.524 m/s²

The force equation is given by:

F = ma

F is the force, m is mass = 73 kg and a is acceleration

F = 73 × 0.524 = 38.252

F = 38.252 N

a scale model of the solar system where 50 cm represents 1.0x10 to the fifth km is actual distance what would be the dimension o
Fofino [41]

The distance between Mars and the Sun in the scale model would be 1140 m

Explanation:

In this scale model, we have:

x_1 = 50 cm represents an actual distance of

d_1 = 1.0\cdot 10^5 km

The actual distance between Mars and the Sun is 228 million km, therefore

d_2=228\cdot 10^6 km

On the scale model, this would corresponds to a distance of x_2.

Therefore, we can write the following proportion:

\frac{x_1}{d_1}=\frac{x_2}{d_2}

And solving for x_2, we find:

x_2=\frac{x_1 d_2}{d_1}=\frac{(50)(228\cdot 10^6)}{1\cdot 10^5}=1.14\cdot 10^5 cm = 1140 m

A physics student of mass 43.0 kg is standing at the edge of the flat roof of a building, 12.0 m above the sidewalk. An unfriend
Dmitry_Shevchenko [17]

Answer:

The speed of the student just before she lands, v₂ is approximately 8.225 m/s

Explanation:

The given parameters are;

The mass of the physic student, m = 43.0 kg

The height at which the student is standing, h = 12.0 m

The radius of the wheel, r = 0.300 m

The moment of inertia of the wheel, I = 9.60 kg·m²

The initial potential energy of the female student, P.E.₁ = m·g·h₁

Where;

m = 43.0 kg

g = The acceleration due to gravity ≈ 9.81 m/s²

h = 12.0 h

∴ P.E.₁ = 43 kg × 9.81 m/s² × 12.0 m = 5061.96 J

The kinetic rotational energy of the wheel and kinetic energy of the student supporting herself from the rope she grabs and steps off the roof, K₁, is given as follows;

K_1 = \dfrac{1}{2} \cdot m \cdot v_{1}^2+\dfrac{1}{2} \cdot I \cdot \omega_{1}^2

The initial kinetic energy, 1/2·m·v₁² and the initial kinetic rotational energy, 1/2·m·ω₁² are 0

∴ K₁ = 0 + 0 = 0

The final potential energy of the student when lands. P.E.₂ = m·g·h₂ = 0

Where;

h₂ = 0 m

The final kinetic energy, K₂, of the wheel and student is give as follows;

K_2 = \dfrac{1}{2} \cdot m \cdot v_{2}^2+\dfrac{1}{2} \cdot I \cdot \omega_{2}^2

Where;

v₂ = The speed of the student just before she lands

ω₂ = The angular velocity of the wheel just before she lands

By the conservation of energy, we have;

P.E.₁ + K₁ = P.E.₂ + K₂

∴ m·g·h₁ + \dfrac{1}{2} \cdot m \cdot v_{1}^2+\dfrac{1}{2} \cdot I \cdot \omega_{1}^2 = m·g·h₂ + \dfrac{1}{2} \cdot m \cdot v_{2}^2+\dfrac{1}{2} \cdot I \cdot \omega_{2}^2

Where;

ω₂ = v₂/r

∴ 5061.96 J + 0 = 0 + \dfrac{1}{2} \times 43.0 \, kg \times v_{2}^2+\dfrac{1}{2} \times 9.60 \, kg\cdot m^2 \cdot \left (\dfrac{v_2}{0.300 \, m} }\right ) ^2

5,061.96 J = 21.5 kg × v₂² + 53.\overline 3 kg × v₂² = 21.5 kg × v₂² + 160/3 kg × v₂²

v₂² = 5,061.96 J/(21.5 kg + 160/3 kg) ≈ 67.643118 m²/s²

v₂ ≈ √(67.643118 m²/s²) ≈ 8.22454363 m/s

The speed of the student just before she lands, v₂ ≈ 8.225 m/s.

ORIGIN OF MOON AND THE RELATIONSHIP WITH THE EARTH
ziro4ka [17]

The moon's gravity pulls at the Earth, causing predictable rises and falls in sea levels known as tides. To a much smaller extent, tides also occur in lakes, the atmosphere, and within Earth's crust.
