A basketball player jumps straight up for a ball. To do this, he lowers his body 0.310 m and then accelerates through this dista
Nastasia [14]

Answer:A)u =4.295m/s  , B)a = 29.746m/s²   C) F=3,153N

Explanation:

Using the kinematic expression  

v² = u² - 2as

where

u = initial velocity

v = final velocity

s = distance

g = acceleration due to gravity .

Given that he reaches a height of 0.940 m above the floor,

the final velocity  = 0

Here, acceleration due to gravity is acting in  opposite the initial direction of motion. So, a=-9.81 m/s.

v² = u² + 2as

0² - u² = 2 (- 9.81) × 0.940

- u² = 2 × - 9.81 × 0.920

- u² = -18.4428

cancelling the minus in both sides , we have that  

u² = 18.4428

u = √18.4428

u =4.295m/s

(b) His acceleration (in m/s2) while he is straightening his legs. He goes from zero to the velocity found in part (a) in a distance of 0.310 m. m/s2

Using v² = u² + 2as

where u = initial speed of basketball player before lengthening = 0 m/s,

v = final speed of basketball player after lengthening =  4.295m/s,

a = acceleration while  straightening his legs

s = distance moved during lengthening = 0.310m

v² = u² + 2as  

 a = (v² - u²)/2s

a = (4.29m/s)² - (0 m/s)²)/(2 × 0.310m)

a = (18.4428 m²/s² - 0 m²/s²)/(0.62 m)

a = (18.4428 m²/s²/(0.62 m)

a = 29.746m/s²

c) The force (in N) he exerts on the floor to do this, given that his mass is 106 kg. N

Force= mass x acceleration.

F = 106 kg X 29.746m/s²

 F = 3,153.076 rounded to  3,153N

A student has the following equipment - copper wire, nail made of iron,a battery, paperclips.
ahrayia [7]
The first step would be to create an electromagnet. You can create an electromagnet by winding a copper wire around the nail, the connect both ends to the battery. A current would start flowing around the nail through the wire, creating an electromagnet with its own magnetic field. Next, bringing the electromagnet to the mixture of copper and iron would slowly attract the pieces of iron (as copper is weakly magnetic). Do this slowly and the iron pieces would all slowly be separated from the copper pieces.

Select the term being defined.
Natalija [7]

A "live" wire or "hot" wire is one that's energized. <em>(B)</em>

It doesn't matter whether it has electrical current flowing in it or not.  If the live, hot, energized conductor has <u><em>voltage</em></u> on it, there is risk of being shocked if you come in contact with it.
