At the start of his race, 86-kg Olympic 100m champion Usain Bolt pushes against the starting block, exerting an average force of

1700N. The force that the block exerts on his foot points 20 degrees above the horizontal. Determine his horizontal speed after the force is exerted for 0.32 seconds.

1) Determine the horizontal force, Fx, exerted by the block on Usain

cos(20°) = Fx / F => Fx = F*cos(20) = 1700N*cos(20) = 1597.48 N

2) Determine the Impulse of that force on Usain.

I = F*t = 1597.48N * 0.32s = 511.19 N*s

3) Determine change in momentum of Usain, Δp

Δp = I = 511.19 N*s

4) Find change if velocity

Δp = Δ(mV) = mΔV => ΔV = Δp / m = 511.19 N*s / 86 kg = 5.94 m/s

Given the Usain started from rest, the velocity is ΔV - 0 = 5.94 m/s

Answer: 5.94 m/s

Help plz explain how to use discributive property
DiKsa [7]

1.Identify the fractions. Using the distributive property, you’ll eventually turn them into integers.

2.For all fractions, find the lowest common multiple (LCM) -- the smallest number that both denominators can fit neatly into. This will allow you to add fractions.

3.Multiply every term in the equation by the LCM.

4.Isolate variables adding or subtracting like terms on both sides of the equals sign.

5.Combine like terms.

6.Solve the equation and simplify, if needed.
