Peter, a 100 kg basketball player, lands on his feet after completing a slam dunk and then immediately jump up again to celebrat

e his basket. When his feet first touch the floor after the dunk,
his velocity is 5 m/s downward; when his feet leave the floor 0.50 s later, as he jumps back up,
his velocity is 4 m/s upward. What is the average reaction force exerted upward by the floor on Peter during this 0.50 s?

Answer:

1800 N

Solution:

Impulse = mΔv = m * (u - v) .

 here m = 100 kg

          u = 4 m/s

          v = -5 m/s

  impulse = 100 x ( 4 - ( -5 ) ) = 900 Kg m/s .

Average reaction Force ( Favg ) = impulse / Δt

Average reaction Force ( Favg )  = 900kg·m/s / 0.5s

Average reaction Force ( Favg )  = 1800 N

How much power should a braked 1.5t car have to be braked to reduce its speed from 30m / s to 10m / s in 5s?​
grandymaker [24]

Answer:

-120000 W

Explanation:

Power = change in energy / time

P = ΔE / t

P = (½ mv₂² − ½ mv₁²) / t

P = m (v₂² − v₁²) / (2t)

Given m = 1.5 t = 1500 kg, v₂ = 10 m/s, v₁ = 30 m/s, and t = 5 s:

P = (1500 kg) ((10 m/s)² − (30 m/s)²) / (2 × 5 s)

P = -120000 W

Light is emitted by electrons when they drop from one energy level to a lower level. Which transition results in the emission of
natulia [17]

Answer:

Level 4 to level 2

Explanation:

Electrons in an atom are contained in specific energy levels (1, 2, 3, and so on) having different distances from the nucleus. When light is emitted by electrons from one energy level to a lower level, level 4 to level 2 has the greatest energy.

Hence, the correct option is "Level 4 to level 2".

For the circuit shown, calculate
RSB [31]

For the circuit shown

a.the total resistance   = R = 35.9 Ω

b. when total current = 2 A, then total voltage  =  V = 71.8 V

c.the current through resistor of resistance 56Ω = I₁ = 1.28 A  

  the current through resistor of resistance 100Ω = I₂ = 0.72 A

Explanation:

a)

Resistors can be connected in series or in parallel. For series combination Resultant resistance of the circuit is given by

R = R₁ + R₂ + R₃ +...........+Rₙ

But is our case as shown in the picture, Both the resistors are connected in parallel and for parallel combination resultant, resultant resistance of the circuit is given by

(1 / R) = (1 / R₁) + (1 / R₂) + (1 / R₃) +.......+ (1 / Rₙ)

So

1 / R = (1 / R₁) + (1 / R₂)

Let

R₁ = 56Ω and R₂ = 100Ω

1 / R = 1/56 + 1/100

1 / R = 39 / 1400

R = 1400 / 39

R = 35.9 Ω

b)

Part b can be solved by Ohm's Law Which is stated as "The current flowing through a circuit is directly proportional to the potential difference across its ends provided the physical state such as temperature of the conductor (circuit) does not change."

Mathematically

V ∝ I

V = IR

Where V is the potential difference across the ends of the conductor and I is the Current flowing through the circuit. R is the resistance of the circuit.

Given data:

Total current = I = 2 A

Resistance = R = 35.9 Ω

Voltage = ?

By Ohm's Law

V = IR

V = 2*35.9

V = 71.8 V

c)

To solve current through each resistor, We can use current division formula which is given as

I₁ = I[ R₂ / (R₁ + R₂) ]

I₂ = I[ R₁ / (R₁ + R₂) ]

Also we can take Voltage across each resistor equal to V = 71.8 V because Potential difference across each resistors connected in parallel remain same . And by using Ohm's law divide the value of potential difference with the value of respective resistor to find the current through each resistors.

By Ohm's Law

V = IR

I = V / R

I₁ = 71.8 / 56

I₁ = 1.28 A

I₂ = V / R

I₂ = 71.8 / 100

I₂ = 0.72 A
