Erica (39kg \;kg ) and Danny (45kg \;kg ) are bouncing on a trampoline. Just as Erica reaches the high point of her bounce, Dann

y is moving upward past her at 4.8m/s \; m/s . At that instant he grabs hold of her.
What is their speed just after he grabs her?

Answer:

2.57142857143 m/s

Explanation:

m_1 = Mass of Danny = 45 kg

m_2 = Mass of Erica = 39 kg

u_1 = Velocity of Danny = 4.8 m/s

v = Combined velocity

In this system the linear momentum is conserved

m_1u_1=(m_1+m_2)v\\\Rightarrow v=\dfrac{m_1u_1}{m_1+m_2}\\\Rightarrow v=\dfrac{45\times 4.8}{39+45}\\\Rightarrow v=2.57142857143\ m/s

The speed of Erica and Danny is 2.57142857143 m/s

Earning Goal: To be able to calculate work done by a constant force directed at different angles relative to displacement
lana [24]

Answer:

the work done by the 30N force is 4156.92 J.

For this problem, they don´t ask you to determine the work of the total force applied in the block. They only want the work done for the force of 30N, with an angle of 30º respectively of the displacement and a traveled distance of 160m. So:

W=F·s·cos(α)=30N·160m·cos(30º)=4156.92J

The uniform dresser has a weight of 91 lb and rests on a tile floor for which μs = 0.25. If the man pushes on it in the horizont
Rudiy27

Answer:

F = 22.75 lb

μ₁ = 0.15

Explanation:

The smallest force required to move the dresser must be equal to the force of friction between the man and the dresser. Therefore,

F = μR

F = μW

where,

F = Smallest force needed to move dresser = ?

μ = coefficient of static friction = 0.25

W = Weight of dresser = 91 lb

Therefore,

F = (0.25)(91 lb)

<u>F = 22.75 lb</u>

<u></u>

Now, for the coefficient of static friction between shoes and floor, we use the same formula but with the mas of the man:

F = μ₁W₁

where,

μ₁ = coefficient of static friction between shoes and floor

W₁ = Weight of man = 151 lb

Therefore,

22.75 lb = μ₁ (151 lb)

μ₁ = 22.75 lb/151 lb

<u>μ₁ = 0.15</u>

salantis [7]

Answer:

B. most electrical devices in a house are on parallel circuits.

Explanation:

Household wiring is a mostly a series of parallel circuits. Otherwise, if you were to turn your oven (or television, or your computer, or any other appliance off, the rest of your home's electrical system will cease to operate.

Therefore, they are in parallel circuits.
