When jumping straight down, you can be seriously injured if you land stiff-legged. One way to avoid injury is to bend your knees

upon landing to reduce the force of the impact. A 75-kg man just before contact with the ground has a speed of 4.6 m/s. (a) In a stiff-legged landing he comes to a halt in 2.1 ms. Find the average net force that acts on him during this time. N (b) When he bends his knees, he comes to a halt in 0.09 s. Find the average force now. N (c) During the landing, the force of the ground on the man points upward, while the force due to gravity points downward. The average net force acting on the man includes both of these forces. Taking into account the directions of these forces, find the force of the ground on the man in parts (a) and (b). stiff legged landing N bent legged landing

Pepe and alfredo are resting on an offshore raft after a swim. they estimate that 3.00 m separates a trough and an adjacent cres
Orlov [11]
The velocity (V) of a wave is the frequency (F) times the wave length (lambda):

     V =  F * lamda

lambda is the distance from crest to crest which is twice the distance from crest to trough.

=> lamba = 2 * 3.00 m = 6.00 m

F = number of waves / time = 13.0 waves / 20.2 s

Now you can plug in the values in the formula of V:

V = 6.00 m/wave* 13.0 waves / 20.2 s = 3.86 m/s

Answer: 3.86 m/s

Suppose a 0.04-kg car traveling at 2.00 m/s can barely break an egg. What is the min
Paha777 [63]

Answer: The correct answer is option (A).

Explanation:

Momentum of the car with 0.04 kg mass , which travelling with velocity of 2.00 m/s

P_1=mass\times velocity=m_1\times v_1=0.04 kg\times 2.00 m/s=8.00 kg m/s

Then the maximum speed of the another car in order to not to break the eggs will be same as first car:

P_1=P_2

0.08 kg m/s=m_2\times v_2=0.08 kg\times v_2

v_2=1 m/s

Speed slightly more than 1 m/s will increase the momentum of second car and the eggs will break. So, from the given options the minimum speed need by the second car will be 1.42m/s.

Why is the horizontal component of a velocity remains constant in horizontal and inclined projection
lesya692 [45]

Answer:

The force of gravity does not affect the horizontal component of motion; a projectile maintains a constant horizontal velocity since there are no horizontal forces acting upon it.

A toy car has a 1.5-A current, and its resistance is 2 . How much voltage does the car require?
oee [108]

Voltage = (current) x (resistance)

Voltage = (1.5 A) x (2 ohms)

In order to MAKE 1.5 A of current flow through the toy car, you have to PROVIDE <em>3 volts</em> from the battery.
