A 150 lb diver stands at the end of a rigid 8 ft long diving board. What is the magnitude of the torque the diver exerts on the

diving board

Answer:

<em>1200 lb-ft</em>

Explanation:

Weight of diver W = 150 lb

length of board L = 8 ft  

This board is pivoted at one end therefore, the perpendicular distance from the pivot = 8 ft

Torque = weight x perpendicular distance from pivot

T = WL

Torque = 150 x 8 = <em>1200 lb-ft</em>

Anna71 [15]

Answer:

A)   v = 1,675 10³ m / s  , B)    r₂ = 11,673 10⁶ m

Explanation:

A) This exercise we must use Newton's second law, where the forces of gravity are the Moon

        F = m a

acceleration is centripetal

        a = v² / r

force is the force of universal attraction

         F = G m M / r²

we substitute

        G m M / r² = m v² / r

        v² = G M / r

distance

        r = R_moon + h

        r = 1.74 10⁶ +1.0786 10⁴

        r = 1,750786 10⁶ m

we calculate

        v = √ (6.67 10⁻¹¹ 7.36 10²² / 1.75 10⁶)

        v = √ (2,8052 10⁶)

        v = 1,675 10³ m / s

B) let's use energy conservation

    Starting point. In the mountain

          Em₀ = K + U = ½ m v² + G m M / r

    Final point. Where the speed is zero

          Em_{f} = U = G mM / r₂

           Em₀ = Em_{f}

           ½ m v² + G m M / r = G mM / r₂

           1 / r₂ = (½ v₂ + G M / r) / GM

let's calculate

 1 / r₂ = (½ (1,675 10³)² + 6.67 10⁻¹¹ 7.36 10²² / 1.75 10⁶) /(6.67 10⁻¹¹ 7.36 10²²)

           1 / r₂ = (1,4028 10⁶ + 2,805 10⁶) / 49.12 10¹¹

           1 / r₂ = 8.5664 10⁻⁷

            r₂ = 11,673 10⁶ m

How does the momentum of a fast object compare to that of a slow object if they both have the same mass?
Varvara68 [4.7K]
The momentum of a fast object compared to that of a slow object even if they both have the same mass, is their velocities.

Having same mass but different velocities results in different momentum.

Example: mass = 10kg
Velocity 1 = 50 Velocity 2 = 100
Momentum 1 = 10×50 = 500 Ns
Momentum 2 = 10×100 = 1000 Ns

Hope it helped!

Un barco va a una velocidad de 45 ml/h, luego el capitán ordena acelerar hasta que la velocidad hasta que la velocidad sea de 60
Sophie [7]

Pregunta completa:

Un barco va a una velocidad de 45 ml/h, luego el capitán ordena acelerar hasta que la velocidad hasta que la velocidad sea de 60 mll/h. si la operación dura 30 minutos.

A cual fue la aceleracion?

B qué distancia recorre?

Responder:

30 millas / hora

26.25 mi

Explicación:

Dado que :

Velocidad inicial, u = 45 mi / hr

Velocidad final, v = 60 mi / hr

Tiempo, t = 30 minutos = 30/60 = 0,5 h

Aceleración, a = cambio de velocidad con el tiempo;

a = (v - u) / t

a = (60 - 45) / 0,5

a = 15 / 0,5

a = 30 millas / h²

Recorrido de distancia, S

S = ut + 0.5at²

S = 45 (0,5) + 0,5 (30) (0,5²)

S = 22,5 + 3,75

S = 26,25 millas

A squirrel runs along an overhead telephone wire that stretches from the top of one pole to the next. The creature is initially
xxTIMURxx [149]

Answer:

xf = - 3.16 m

Explanation:

the squirrel was initially in the position xi = 3.65 m, then it had a displacement of Δx = -6.81 m.

The negative sign indicates that it moved in the opposite direction, so we must subtract this displacement Δx = -6.81 m to the initial position xi = 3.65 m, to find its final position.

3.65 m - 6.81 m = - 3.16 m
