The deceleration experienced by the gymnast is the 9 times of the acceleration due to gravity.
Now from Newton`s first law, the net force on gymnast,
Here, W is the weight of the gymnast and a is the acceleration experienced by the gymnast ( acceleration due to gravity)
Therefore,
OR
Given and
Substituting these values in above formula and calculate the force exerted by the gymnast,
The amount of heat required is B) 150 J
Explanation:
The amount of heat energy required to increase the temperature of a substance is given by the equation:
where:
m is the mass of the substance
C is the specific heat capacity of the substance
is the change in temperature of the substance
For the sample of copper in this problem, we have:
m = 25 g (mass)
C = 0.39 J/gºC (specific heat capacity of copper)
(change in temperature)
Substituting, we find:
So, the closest answer is B) 150 J.
