Answer:

Potential energy

Explanation:

As the man throws a ball, the ball gains some kinetic energy. As the ball goes up the velocity of ball goes on decreasing and the height goes on increasing. It means the it loses kinetic energy and gaining potential energy.

A skydiver of mass 80kg jumps from a slow moving aircraft and reach a terminal speed of 50 m/s. What's her acceleration when her
miskamm [114]

Answer:

a = g = 9.81[m/s^2]

Explanation:

This problem can be solve using the second law of Newton.

We know that the forces acting over the skydiver are only his weight, and it is equal to the product of the mass by the acceleration.

m*g = m*a

where:

g = gravity = 9.81[m/s^2]

a = acceleration [m/s^2]

Note: If the skydiver will be under air resistance forces his acceleration will be different.

Consider two massless springs connected in parallel. Springs 1 and 2 have spring constants k1 and k2 and are connected via a thi
77julia77 [94]

Answer:

k1 + k2

Explanation:

Spring 1 has spring constant k1

Spring 2 has spring constant k2

After being applied by the same force, it is clearly mentioned that spring are extended by the same amount i.e. extension of spring 1 is equal to extension of spring 2.

x1 = x2

Since the force exerted to each spring might be different, let's assume F1 for spring 1 and F2 for spring 2. Hence the equations of spring constant for both springs are

k1 = F1/x -> F1 =k1*x

k2 = F2/x -> F2 =k2*x

While F = F1 + F2

Substitute equation of F1 and F2 into the equation of sum of forces

F = F1 + F2

F = k1*x + k2*x

= x(k1 + k2)

Note that this is applicable because both spring have the same extension of x (I repeat, EXTENTION, not length of the spring)

Considering the general equation of spring forces (Hooke's Law) F = kx,

The effective spring constant for the system is k1 + k2

A Cessna aircraft has a lift off speed of 147 km/h. What minimum constant acceleration does this require if the aircraft is to b
netineya [11]

Answer:

The acceleration is  a =51945 \ km/h^2

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

   The lift up speed is  v  = 147 \  km/h

    The distance covered for the take off run is s =  208 m = 0.208 \ km

Generally from kinematic equation we have that

      v^2 = u^2 + 2as

Here u is the initial  speed of the aircraft with value 0 m/ s give that the aircraft started from rest

So  

    147^2 = 0^2 + 2* a* 0.208

=>  a =51945 \ km/h^2
