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 ball rolls off a table with a horizontal velocity of 3 m/s. If it takes 0.3 seconds for the ball to reach the floor, how high
LekaFEV [45]

The height of the table above the ground is 0.45 m.

<h3>Data obtained from the question</h3>

From the question given above, the following data were obtained:

  • Horizontal velocity (u) = 3 m/s
  • Time (t) = 0.3 s
  • Acceleration due to gravity (g) = 10 m/s²
  • Height (h) =?

<h3>How to determine the height </h3>

The height of the table can be obtained by using the following formula:

h = ½gt²

h = ½ × 10 × 0.3²

h = 5 × 0.09

h = 0.45 m

Thus, the height of the table is 0.45 m

A pulley lifts a 72-N load with a force of 24-N. The input distance is 2m and the output distance is 0.5m. What is the efficienc
Debora [2.8K]

Answer:

Explanation:

Work done on the lever ( input energy ) = force applied x input distance

= 24 N x 2m = 48 J

Work done by the lever ( output energy ) = load x output distance

= 72 N x 0.5m = 36 J

efficiency = output energy / input energy

= 36 J  / 48 J

= 3 / 4 = .75

In percentage terms efficiency = 75 % .

3. How much work is done when you pull a 6 N wagon for 5 meters?
8090 [49]

Answer:

<h2>30 J</h2>

Explanation:

The work done by an object can be found by using the formula

workdone = force × distance

From the question

force = 6 N

distance = 5 m

We have

workdone = 6 × 5 = 30

We have the final answer as

<h3>30 J</h3>

Hope this helps you
