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

A small steel roulette ball rolls around the inside of a 30 cm diameter roulette wheel. It is spun at 150 rpm, but is slows to 6
liraira [26]

Solution :

Given

Diameter of the roulette ball = 30 cm

The speed ball spun at the beginning = 150 rpm

The speed of the ball during a period of 5 seconds = 60 rpm

Therefore, change of speed in 5 seconds = 150 - 60

                                                                      = 90 rpm

Therefore,

90 revolutions in 1 minute

or In 1 minute the ball revolves 90 times

i.e. 1 min = 90 rev

     60 sec = 90 rev

        1 sec = 90/ 60 rec

         5 sec = $\frac{90}{60}\times 5$

                   = 75 rev

Therefore, the ball made 75 revolutions during the 5 seconds.

25% part (c) assume that d is the distance the cheetah is away from the gazelle when it reaches full speed. Derive an expression
levacccp [35]

maximum speed of cheetah is

v_1 = v_{max}

speed of gazelle is given as

v_2 = v_{g}

Now the relative speed of Cheetah with respect to Gazelle

v_{12} = v_1 - v_2

v_{12} = v_{max} - v_g

now the relative distance between Cheetah and Gazelle is given initially as "d"

now the time taken by Cheetah to catch the Gazelle is given as

d = v_{12}* t

so by rearranging the terms we can say

t = \frac{d}{v_{12}}

t = \frac{d}{v_{max} - v_g}

so above is the relation between all given variable

Two machines do thae same may have different power why
marissa [1.9K]

The quantity work has to do with a force causing a displacement. Work has nothing to do with the amount of time that this force acts to cause the displacement. Sometimes, the work is done very quickly and other times the work is done rather slowly. For example, a rock climber takes an abnormally long time to elevate her body up a few meters along the side of a cliff. On the other hand, a trail hiker (who selects the easier path up the mountain) might elevate her body a few meters in a short amount of time. The two people might do the same amount of work, yet the hiker does the work in considerably less time than the rock climber. The quantity that has to do with the rate at which a certain amount of work is done is known as the power. The hiker has a greater power rating than the rock climber.

Power is the rate at which work is done. It is the work/time ratio. Mathematically, it is computed using the following equation.


Power = Work / time


or


P = W / t
