In a Broadway performance, an 83.0-kg actor swings from a R = 3.90-m-long cable that is horizontal when he starts. At the bottom

of his arc, he picks up his 55.0-kg costar in an inelastic collision. What maximum height do they reach after their upward swing?

Answer:

h = 2.821\,m

Explanation:

The speed of the actor before the collision is found by means of the Principle of Energy Conservation:

(83\,kg)\cdot(9.807\,\frac{m}{s})\cdot (3.90\,m) = \frac{1}{2}\cdot (83\,kg)\cdot v^{2}

v = \sqrt{2\cdot (9.807\,\frac{m}{s^{2}} )\cdot (3.90\,m)}

v \approx 8.746\,\frac{m}{s}

The speed after the inelastic collision is obtained by using the Principle of Momentum Conservation:

(83\,kg)\cdot (8.746\,\frac{m}{s} )+(55\,kg)\cdot (0\,\frac{m}{s} ) = (83\,kg + 55\,kg)\cdot v

v = 5.260\,\frac{m}{s}

Lastly, the maximum height is determined by using the Principle of Energy Conservation again:

\frac{1}{2}\cdot (138\,kg)\cdot (5.260\,\frac{m}{s} )^{2} = (138\,kg)\cdot (9.807\,\frac{m}{s^{2}} )\cdot h

h = \frac{(5.260\,\frac{m}{s} )^{2}}{9.807\,\frac{m}{s^{2}} }

h = 2.821\,m

Which type of exercise is weightlifting?
MatroZZZ [7]

The answer is option B "anaerobic." Weightlifting deals with stress to the muscles when lifting weights and due time the muscles will begin to adapt and get stronger. Other examples of anaerobic exercise are things like: weight training, sprinting, cycling, and jumping anything that has short exertion, and high-intensity movement is an anaerobic exercise.

Hope this helps!
