A 66.0−kg short-track ice skater is racing at a speed of 10.0 m/s when he falls down and slides across the ice into a padded wal

l that brings him to rest. Assuming that he doesn't lose any speed during the fall or while sliding across the ice, how much work is done by the wall while stopping the ice skater?

Answer:

3300J

Explanation:

Work done is the energy that is lost by the skater

Formula for workdone = 1/2*mV^2

m = 66kg

V = 10m/s

Work done = 1/2 * 66 * 10^2

= 3300J

An object is thrown directly upwards from the ground at a velocity of 9ms. Recalling that the acceleration due to gravity is −gm
olga55 [171]

Answer:

Explanation:

Given

Object is thrown with a velocity of u=9\ m/s

Acceleration due to gravity is -g (i.e. acting downward)

Vertical distance traveled by object is given by

v^2-u^2=2as  

where v=final velocity

u=initial velocity

a=acceleration

s=displacement

at maximum height final velocity is zero

0-(9)^2=2\times (-g)\times (s)

s=\frac{81}{2g}=\frac{40.5}{g}\ m

time taken to reach maximum height

using

v=u+at

0=9-gt

t=\frac{9}{g}\ s

Block A of 5 kg with a speed of 3 m/s collides with block B of 10 kg that is stationary. After the collision, block B travels wi
Lemur [1.5K]

Answer:

-1m/s

Explanation:

We can calculate the speed of block A after collision

According to collision theory:

MaVa+MbVb = MaVa+MbVb (after collision)

Substitute the given values

5(3)+10(0) = 5Va+10(2)

15+0 = 5Va + 20

5Va = 15-20

5Va = -5

Va = -5/5

Va = -1m/s

Hence the velocity of ball A after collision is -1m/s

Note that the velocity of block B is zero before collision since it is stationary
