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

Which of the following are single-displacement reactions?
ololo11 [35]

Answer:

A & D

Explanation:

A single-displacement reaction is a chemical reaction whereby one element is substituted for another one in a compound and thereby generating a new element and also a new compound as products.

From the options, only options A & D fits this definition of single-displacement reactions.

For option D: Both left and hand and right hand sides each have one element and one compound. We can see that K is substituted from KBr to join Cl to form KCl and Br2 on the right hand side.

For option A: Both left and hand and right hand sides each have one element and one compound. We can see that OH is substituted from 2H2O to join Mg to form Mg(OH)2 and H2 on the right hand side.

The other options are not correct because they don't involve only and element and a compound on each side of the reaction.

You stand on a merry-go-round which is spinning at f = 0:25 revolutions per second. You are R = 200 cm from the center. (a) Find
ivanzaharov [21]

Answer:

(a) ω = 1.57 rad/s

(b) ac = 4.92 m/s²

(c) μs = 0.5

Explanation:

(a)

The angular speed of the merry go-round can be found as follows:

ω = 2πf

where,

ω = angular speed = ?

f = frequency = 0.25 rev/s

Therefore,

ω = (2π)(0.25 rev/s)

<u>ω = 1.57 rad/s </u>

(b)

The centripetal acceleration can be found as:

ac = v²/R

but,

v = Rω

Therefore,

ac = (Rω)²/R

ac = Rω²

therefore,

ac = (2 m)(1.57 rad/s)²

<u>ac = 4.92 m/s² </u>

(c)

In order to avoid slipping the centripetal force must not exceed the frictional force between shoes and floor:

Centripetal Force = Frictional Force

m*ac = μs*R = μs*W

m*ac = μs*mg

ac = μs*g

μs = ac/g

μs = (4.92 m/s²)/(9.8 m/s²)

<u>μs = 0.5</u>

Pot holder should have high insulation and low _____.
kipiarov [429]

Potholder should have high insulation and low conductivity, therefore the correct answer is the option B

<h3>What is insulation?</h3>

Insulation is a type of material used to create barriers to the transmission of the form of energy which either is in form of heat or electricity.

For outdoor trips in cold weather, several thin layers act as better insulating barriers for heat transfer.

The ability of an electric charge or heat to pass through a material is measured by its conductivity. A material is considered a conductor if it offers very little resistance to the flow of thermal or electric energy.

Thus, Potholders should be highly insulated and have low conductivity, therefore the correct answer is the option B
