Jane, looking for Tarzan, is running at top speed (4.9 m/s) and grabs a vine hanging 4.1 m vertically from a tall tree in the ju

ngle. If air resistance is neglected, how high can she swing upward? Hint: use the conservation of energy. m Does the length of the vine affect your answer?

Answer:

1.22375 m

Explanation:

v = Velocity = 4.9 m/s

g = Acceleration due to gravity = 9.81 m/s²

h = Height

In this system the kinetic and potential energy is conserved when Tarzan at the top of the swing

\dfrac{1}{2}mv^2=mgh\\\Rightarrow h=\dfrac{v^2}{2g}\\\Rightarrow h=\dfrac{4.9^2}{2\times 9.81}\\\Rightarrow h=1.22375\ m

The height of the swing is 1.22375 m

As it can be seen in the equation the length of the vine does not matter

Why would you expect sodium (Na) to react strongly with chlorine (Cl)?
Snowcat [4.5K]
3. is the answer, <span>Sodium needs to lose one electron, and chlorine needs to gain one electron. This is because Sodium's row always wants to give away an electron, while Chlorine's row wants to gain an electron.</span>

When fuel and air are compressed in the compression stroke, ...... a. each molecule of fuel is heated to its flash point b. each
alexira [117]

None of the choices is an appropriate response.

There's no such thing as the temperature of a molecule.  Temperature and
pressure are both outside-world manifestations of the energy the molecules
have.  But on the molecular level, what it is is the kinetic energy with which
they're all scurrying around.

When the fuel/air mixture is compressed during the compression stroke,
the temperature is raised to the flash point of the mixture.  The work done
during the compression pumps energy into the molecules, their kinetic
energy increases, and they begin scurrying around fast enough so that
when they collide, they're able to stick together, form a new molecule,
and release some of their kinetic energy in the form of heat.
