A 110 kg ice hockey player skates at 3.0 m/s toward a railing at the edge of the ice and then stops himself by grasping the rail

ing with his outstretched arms. During the stopping process, his center of mass moves 30 cm toward the railing. (a) What is the change in the kinetic energy of his center of mass during this process

Answer:

Δ KE = -495 J

Explanation:

given,

mass of the ice hockey player = 110 Kg

initial speed = 3 m/s

final speed  = 0 m/s

distance, d = 0.3 m

change in kinetic energy

\Delta K E = \dfrac{1}{2}mv_f^2 - \dfrac{1}{2}mv_i^2

\Delta K E = \dfrac{1}{2}mv(0)^2 - \dfrac{1}{2}\times 110\times 3^2

    Δ KE = -495 J

Hence, the change in kinetic energy is equal to Δ KE = -495 J

A small airplane has to reach a speed if 27.8 m/s to takeoff. It can accelerate at 2.00 m/s^2. What is the minimal length of run
pickupchik [31]
Using the constant acceleration formula v^2 = u^2 + 2as, we can figure out that it would take a distance of 193.21m to reach 27.8m/s

Which is an inertial reference frame (or at least a very good approximation of one)? Which is an inertial reference frame (or at
ioda

Answer:

A jet plane flying straight and at level at constant speed

Explanation:

     The<em> inertial frame </em>of reference is a frame of reference in which all <em>Newton law  is valid</em> ie Newton second law of motion and therefore newton first law of motion holds good. <em>The frame of reference does not accelerate.</em>

All the object that is in the frame of reference are at rest or moving with constant rectilinear motion with constant velocity unless acted upon by any force.

Lady_Fox [76]

Answer:

  • Distance, such that displacement over time is taken into account doesn't change regardless of the length in x meters or mass in kg
  • So the force will remain constant given 16 units
