Refer to the diagram shown below.
u = 0, the initial vertical velocity
Assume g = 9.8 m/s² and ignore air resistance.
At the first stage of landing on the ground, the distance traveled is
h = 3.1 - 0.6 = 2.5 m.
If v = the vertical velocity at this stage, then
v² = u² + 2gh
v² = 2*(9.8 m/s²)*(2.5 m) = 49 (m/s)²
v = 7 m/s
At the second stage of landing on the ground, let a = the acceleration (actually deceleration) that his body provides to come to rest.
The distance traveled is 0.6 m.
Therefore
0 = (7 m/s)² + 2(a m/s²)*(0.6 m)
a = - 49/1.2 = - 40.833 m/s²
Answers:
(a) The velocity when the man first touches the ground is 7.0 m/s.
(b) The acceleration is -40.83 m/s² (deceleration of 40.83 m/s²) to come to rest within 0.6 m.
I hope you are referring to Newton's Laws of Motion by "Newton's Law".
There are three laws quoted by the great physicist of all time Sir Isaac Newton.
These laws are the building-blocks of the field of the Physics known as Classical Physics or Classical Mechanics.
Law 1. If no force applied externally, then a body in rest will always be in rest and a body in motion will continue to move in a straight line with a uniform velocity.
Law 2. The rate of change of momentum is directly proportional to the force applied and the direction of motion is always in the direction of the force applied.
Law 3. Every action has an equal and opposite reaction.
The Law 1 is also called the law of Inertia.
From the 2nd law, we can derive the equation of force, that is F =m.a (m = mass; a = acceleration)
from the question
x₁ = x-coordinate = 8
y₁ = y-coordinate = - 4
m = slope of line = 2/3
slope form of the line is given as
(y - y₁ ) = m (x - x₁)
inserting the values
(y - (- 4) ) = (2/3) (x - 8)
(3) (y + 4) = (2) (x - 8)
multiplying each term inside the bracket by 3 and 2 respective on left and right side
3y + 12 = 2 x - 16
2 x - 3 y - 16 - 12 = 0
2 x - 3 y - 28 = 0
Answer:
For the bird moving in a straight line, the kinetic energy is one-half the product of the mass and the square of the speed: Ek=12mu2.
Answer: <u>In a divergent plate boundary</u>, seafloor spreading taking place. It leads to the formation of oceans as new materials are added here along the mid-oceanic ridge. There occur volcanism and shallow-focus earthquakes.
<u>In a convergent plate boundary</u>, two plates collide to form high mountain belts and also volcanic eruptions take place. There occur long chains of volcanic as well as island arcs, in association with deep-focus earthquakes.
<u>In a transform plate boundary</u>, two plates slide past each other, conserving the plates. Shallow-focus earthquakes are generated here.
The earth has experienced various geological processes, such as weathering and erosion of rocks, earthquakes, volcanic eruptions, mass extinction events, plate tectonic movements and many more. These continuous processes have configured the present shape of the earth's surface.
For example, the breaking up of the supercontinent Pangea divided into Laurasia and Gondwanaland and subsequently formed the present scenario. This separation of continents has taken place due to the convection current that generates in the mantle.
