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 binary star system consists of two equal mass stars that revolve in circular orbits about their center of mass. The period of
Vladimir79 [104]

Answer:

m = 2.23 \times 10^{-32} kg

Explanation:

Given data:

PERIOD OF MOTION IS T = 25.5 days

orbital speeds = 220 km/s

we know that

acceleration due to centripetal force isa =   \frac{F}{m} = \frac{V^2}{r}

Gravitational forceF= \frac{Gm m}{d^2}

we know that

v = \frac{2\pi R}{T}

solving for

R = \frac{vT}{2\pi}

F = \frac{Gm^2}{4(\frac{vT}{2\pi})^2}

F = G\times \frac{\pi m}{(vT)^2}

a = \frac{v^2}{\frac{vT}{2\pi}}

a = \frac{2\pi v}{T}

we know that

f =ma

G\times \frac{\pi m}{(vT)^2} = a = \frac{2\pi m v}{T}

solving for m

m = \frac{2Tv^3}{\pi G}

m = \frac{2\times 25.5 \times 86400 \times 220000^3\ m/s}{\pi \times 6.67\times 10^{-11}}

m = 2.23 \times 10^{-32} kg
