A 35.0-kg dolphin decelerates from 12.0 to 7.50 m/s in 2.30 s to join another dolphin in play. What average force was exerted to

slow the first dolphin if it was moving horizontally? (The gravitational force is balanced by the buoyant force of the water.)

Answer:

68.5N

Explanation:

When the dolphin decelerates from 12m/s to 7.5 m/s within 2.3s. Then its acceleration is:

a = \frac{\Delta v}{\Delta t} = \frac{7.5 - 12}{2.3} = -1.96 m/s^2

The dolphin has a mass of 35kg, according to the Newton's 2nd law, the force exerted on it must be:

F = ma = 35*1.96 = 68.5 N

Given that a lever has a mechanical advantage of 6.0 and is 100% efficient, if the resistance is to be lifted 2.0 inches, then h
Shalnov [3]
The mechanical advantage of a machine is the ratio of the force produced by the machine to the force applied to it. Therefore, we may calculate the applied force using:
Mechanical advantage = force by machine / force applied
6 = 2 / force applied
Force applied = 1/3

Thus, the distance that the effort must move will be 1/3 inch
