A 60 kg man jumps down from a 0.8 m table. What is the speed when he

Physics

Rom4ik [11]3 years ago

Answer: Speed = 4 m/s

Explanation:

The parameters given are

Mass M = 60 kg

Height h = 0.8 m

Acceleration due to gravity g= 10 m/s2

Before the man jumps, he will be experiencing potential energy at the top of the table.

P.E = mgh

Substitute all the parameters into the formula

P.E = 60 × 9.8 × 0.8

P.E = 470.4 J

As he jumped from the table and hit the ground, the whole P.E will be converted to kinetic energy according to conservative of energy.

When hitting the ground,

K.E = P.E

Where K.E = 1/2mv^2

Substitute m and 470.4 into the formula

470.4 = 1/2 × 60 × V^2

V^2 = 470.4/30

V^2 = 15.68

V = square root (15.68)

V = 3.959 m/s

Therefore, the speed of the man when hitting the ground is approximately 4 m/s

A force of 2N will stretch a rubber band 0.02m. Assuming that Hooke's Law applies, answer the following: How far will a 1600N fo
denis-greek [22]
Hooke's Law states that the extension is directly proportional to the force applied so:
F/x = constant

F₁/x₁ = F₂/x₂
2 / 0.02 = 1600 / x₂
x₂ = 16 m

Elastic work = 1/2 Fx
= 1/2 * 1600 * 16
= 12.8 kJ

Doc Brown has calculated his Delorean can accelerate at a rate of 2.52 m/s/s. How
GREYUIT [131]

Answer:

304.89m

Explanation:

Given

acceleration a = 2.52m/s²

final speed v = 39.2m/s

initial speed = 0m/s (car accelerates from rest)

Using the equation of motion below to get the distance of Doc brown from Marty;

v² = u²+2as

substitute the given parameters

39.2² = 0²+2(2.52)s

1536.64 = 0+5.04s

divide both sides by 5.04

1536.64/5.04 = 5.04s/5.04

rearrange the equation

5.04s/5.04 = 1536.64/5.04

s = 304.89m

Hence He and Marty must stand at 304.89m to allow the car to accelerate from rest to a speed  of 39.2 m/s?

In order to simulate weightlessness for astronauts in training, they are flown in a vertical circle. if the passengers are to ex
sleet_krkn [62]
The answer is "156.6 m/s".

This is how we calculate this;

-N + mg = ma = mv²/r

For "weightlessness" N = 0, so

0 = mg - mv²/r 

g - v²/r = 0 

v =√( gr)
g = 9.8 and r = 2.5km = 2500 m

v = √(9.8 x 2500)

= 156.6 m/s
