A 50 kg rock climber accidentally falls from the side of a rock and freefalls until she is stopped by her 9 m saftey rope. Assum

ing that the rope stops her completely with no rebound, what is the impulse impared on her body by the rope? If the rock climber's rope took 0.224s to stop her completely after she fell, what was the average force felt by the rock climber as she stopped?

Answer:

a) 665 kg.m/s

b) 2.97 kN

Explanation:

The impulse is given by:

J=\Delta p\\J=m(v_a-v_b)

where

va=velocity after

vb=velocity before

The velocity just before is given by:

v_b=\sqrt{2*9.81m/s^2*9m}=13.3m/s(-\hat{j})

The velocity just after is zero because there wasn't a rebound.

So the impulse is:

J=50kg*(0-13.3m/s(-\hat{j}))\\J=50kg*(0+13.3m/s(\hat{j}))=665kg.m/s

The impulse is also given by:

J=\Delta p=F* \Delta t\\so:\\F=\frac{J}{\Delta t}\\\\F=\frac{665kg.m/s}{0.224s}=2.97kN

Find the mass of 250 mL of water. The density of water is 1 g/mL.​
emmainna [20.7K]

Answer:

<h2>The answer is 250 g</h2>

Explanation:

The mass of a substance when given the density and volume can be found by using the formula

<h3>mass = Density × volume</h3>

From the question

volume = 250 mL

density = 1 g/mL

So we have

mass = 250 × 1

We have the final answer as

<h3>250 g</h3>

Hope this helps you

A roller coaster car may be approximated by a block of mass m. Thecar, which starts from rest, is released at a height h above t
elena55 [62]

Answer:

The first part can be solved via conservation of energy.

mgh = mg2R + K\\K = mg(h-2R)

For the second part,

the free body diagram of the car should be as follows:

- weight in the downwards direction

- normal force of the track to the car in the downwards direction

The total force should be equal to the centripetal force by Newton's Second Law.

F = ma = \frac{mv^2}{R}\\mg + N = \frac{mv^2}{R}

where N = 0 because we are looking for the case where the car loses contact.

mg = \frac{mv^2}{R}\\v^2 = gR\\v = \sqrt{gR}

Now we know the minimum velocity that the car should have. Using the energy conservation found in the first part, we can calculate the minimum height.

mgh = mg2R + \frac{1}{2}mv^2\\mgh = mg2R + \frac{1}{2}m(gR)\\gh = g2R + \frac{1}{2}gR\\h = 2R + \frac{R}{2}\\h = \frac{5R}{2}

Explanation:

The point that might confuse you in this question is the direction of the normal force at the top of the loop.

We usually use the normal force opposite to the weight. However, normal force is the force that the road exerts on us. Imagine that the car goes through the loop very very fast. Its tires will feel a great amount of normal force, if its velocity is quite high. By the same logic, if its velocity is too low, it might not feel a normal force at all, which means losing contact with the track.

The outlaw that was <span>executed by hanging "in the spring of '25" is identified as the HIGHWAYMAN.

This is one of the characters in the song, "American Remains", sang by The Highwaymen. The group consisted of </span><span>Johnny Cash, Waylon Jennings, Willie Nelson and Kris Kristofferson. Other characters in the song were a sailor, a dam builder, and a pilot of a starship.
</span>
This is the first stanza of the song:

"I was a highwayman. Along the coach roads I did ride 
<span>With sword and pistol by my side </span>
<span>Many a young maid lost her baubles to my trade </span>
<span>Many a soldier shed his lifeblood on my blade </span>
<span>The b*stards hung me in the spring of twenty-five </span>
<span>But I am still alive."</span>
