A 42.0-kg parachutist is moving straight downward with a speed of 3.85 m/s. (a) If the parachutist comes to rest with constant a

RideAnS [48]

Answer:

-414.96 N

Explanation:

t = Time taken

u = Initial velocity

v = Final velocity

s = Displacement

a = Acceleration

$v^2-u^2=2as\\\Rightarrow a=\frac{v^2-u^2}{2s}\\\Rightarrow a=\frac{0^2-3.85^2}{2\times 0.75}\\\Rightarrow a=-9.88\ m/s^2$

$F=ma\\\Rightarrow F=42\times -9.88\\\Rightarrow F=-414.96\ N$

The force the ground exerts on the parachutist is -414.96 N

If the distance is shorter than 0.75 m then the acceleration will increase causing the force to increase

As the proton approaches the uranium nucleus, the repulsive force slows down the proton until it comes momentarily to rest, afte

Klio2033 [76]

Answer:

$r^2 = \frac{ 2 k \ Ze^2}{ 2m}$

Explanation:

For this exercise we must use the principle of conservation of energy

starting point. The proton very far from the nucleus

Em₀ = K = ½ m v²

final point. The point where the proton is stopped (v = 0)

Em_f = U = q V

where the potential is

V = k Ze / r²

Let us consider that all the charge of the nucleus is in the center, therefore r is the distance from this point to the proton that is approaching

Energy is conserved

Em₀ = Em_f

½ m v² = e ( $k \frac{Ze}{r^2}$ )

$r^2 = \frac{ 2 k \ Ze^2}{ 2m}$

with this expression we can find the closest approach distance (r)

This rock, known as balance rock, sits on a thin spike of rock in a canyon in idaho. explain the forces that keep the rock balan

Evgen [1.6K]

Answer:

Action force and Reaction force

Explanation:

The action force which is the balanced rock pushing down due to gravity and the reaction force pushing the equal amount of force. These two things are stated in Newtons third law, where he states that "Whenever one object exerts a force on a second object, the second object exerts an equal and opposite force on the first." Also, he states that "all forces acts in pairs," meaning that every force exerted, there is an opposite force on the first.
