kvasek [131]

Answer: h = 0.30 m

Explanation:

A person jumping from height h would possess potential energy = m g h

which will convert completely into kinetic energy as person hits the ground. Now, the maximum energy absorbed by the person can be = 200 J

m = 67 kg

g = 9.8 m/s²

⇒ m g h = 200 J

⇒ h = 200 J / (67 kg × 9.8 m/s²) = 0.30 m

Hence, a person can land safely on both legs without breaking them from a height of 0.30 m only.

At 20 degrees Celsius, conducting wires made of different materials have the same length and the same diameter. Which wire has t

DENIUS [597]

Answer:

Aluminium

Explanation:

Aluminium has the least resistance since It has 3 free electrons per atom. Its resistivity is low compared to other metals provided in the choices (gold, nichrome, tungsten). Low resistivity of metals means a high conductance of the metal referred to.

A large pendulum with a 200-lb gold-plated bob 12 inches in diameter is on display in the lobby of the United Nations building.

Tpy6a [65]

Answer:

2.4s

Explanation:

The length of the pendulum = 75ft

Diameter d = 12 inches

The time period of the pendulum is given as

T = 2pi(L/g)^1/2

Then the time it takes to move from displacement to equilibrium is given as:

t = T/4

= (Pi/2)*(L/g)^1/2

= pi/2 x [(75x0.3048)/9.81]^0.5

= 1.57x[22.86/9.81)^0.5

= 2.4s

2.4 seconds is the least amount of time that it would take.

A large airplane typically has three sets of wheels: one at the front and two farther back, one on each side under the wings. Co

Tems11 [23]

(a) The force the ground exerts on each set of rear wheels when the plane is at rest on the runway is 0.743 MN.

(b) The force the ground exerts on the front set of wheels is 0.239 MN.

<h3>Center mass of the airplane</h3>

The concept of center mass of an object can be used to dtermine the mass distribution of the airplane along the line through the center.

<h3>Some assumptions</h3>

The wheels under the wind do not pass through the center line.
The position of the front wheel is constant and it is zero mark (origin).
The rear wheels are at 21.7 m mark

Position of the center mass of the plane is calculated as follows;

Let the position of the center mass, Xcm = y

the center mass is 3 m in front of rear wheels, that is

21.7 - y = 3

y = 21.7 - 3

y = 18.7 m

Xcm = 18.7 m

<h3>Mass of the plane at the position of the rear wheels</h3>

Let the mass of the plane at front wheels = M1

Let the mass of the plane at rear wheels = M2

$X_{cm} = \frac{M_1x_1 + M_2x_2}{M_1 + M_2}$

$18.7 = \frac{M_1(0) + M_2(21.7)}{177000} \\\\3,309,900 = 21.7M_2\\\\M_2 = \frac{3,309,900}{21.7} \\\\M_2 = 152,529.95 \ kg$

<h3>Force exerted by the ground on each rear wheel</h3>

There are two rear wheels, and the force exerted on each wheel due to mass of the airplane at this position is calculated as follows;

$W = mg\\\\W_1 = W_2 = \frac{1}{2} (mg) = \frac{1}{2} (152,529.95 \times 9.8) = 743,396.76 \ N= 0.743 \ MN$

<h3>Mass of the plane at the position of the front wheel</h3>

M1 + M2 = 177,000

M1 = 177,000 - M2

M1 = 177,000 - 152,529.95

M1 = 24,470.05 kg

<h3>Force exerted by the ground on the front wheel</h3>

W = mg

W = 24,470.05 x 9.8

W = 239,806.5 N = 0.239 MN
