A stuntwoman is going to attempt a jump across a canyon that is 77 m wide. The ramp on the far side of the canyon is 25 m lower

than the ramp from which she will leave. The takeoff ramp is built with a 15º angle from horizontal. If the stuntwoman leaves the ramp with a velocity of 28 m/s, will she make the jump? Why?

initial speed of the stuntman is given as

v = 28 m/s

angle of inclination is given as

\theta = 15 degree

now the components of the velocity is given as

v_x = 28 cos15 = 27.04 m/s

v_y = 28 sin15 = 7.25 m/s

here it is given that the ramp on the far side of the canyon is 25 m lower than the ramp from which she will leave.

So the displacement in vertical direction is given as

\delta y = -25 m

\delta y = v_y * t + \frac{1}{2} at^2

-25 = 7.25 * t - \frac{1}{2}*9.8* t^2

by solving above equation we have

t = 3.12 s

Now in the above interval of time the horizontal distance moved by it is given by

d_x = v_x * t

d_x = 27.04 * 3.12 = 84.4 m

since the canyon width is 77 m which is less than the horizontal distance covered by the stuntman so here we can say that stuntman will cross the canyon.

Assume that the polymer material has a constant refractive index of 1.5. For light of 600nm wavelength at normal incidence, what
yaroslaw [1]

Answer:

Minimum thickness will be 100 nm

Explanation:

We have given refractive index is n = 1.5

Wavelength of the light incidence \lambda= 600 nm

We have to find the smallest thickness of the film so that there will be minimum light reflect

For minimum thickness of non reflecting film

t=\frac{\lambda }{4n} , here t is thickness, \lambda is wavelength and n is refractive index

Putting all values t=\frac{600}{4\times 1.5}=100nm

So minimum thickness will be 100 nm

For safety reasons, a worker’s eye travel time in a certain operation must be separated from the manual elements that follow. Th
iogann1982 [59]

Answer:

The answer is 12.67 TMU

Explanation:

Recall that,

worker’s eyes travel  distance must be = 20 in.

The perpendicular distance from her eyes to the line of travel is =24 in

What is the MTM-1 normal time in TMUs that should be allowed for the eye travel element = ?

Now,

We solve for the given problem.

Eye travel is = 15.2 * T/D

=15.2 * 20 in/24 in

so,

= 12.67 TMU

Therefore, the MTM -1 of normal time that should be allowed for the eye  travel element is = 12.67 TMU

When dots are placed on a page from a laser printer, they must be close enough so that you do not see the individual dots of ink
Dovator [93]

Answer:

 y <8 10⁻⁶ m

Explanation:

For this exercise, they indicate that we use the Raleigh criterion that establishes that two luminous objects are separated when the maximum diffraction of one of them coincides with the first minimum of the other.

 Therefore the diffraction equation for slits with m = 1 remains

             a sin θ = λ

in general these experiments occur for oblique angles so

             sin θ = θ

             θ = λ / a

in the case of circular openings we must use polar coordinates to solve the problem, the solution includes a numerical constant

           θ = 1.22 λ / a

The angles in these measurements are taken in radians, therefore

          θ = s / R

as the angle is small the arc approaches the distance s = y

          y / R = 1.22 λ / s

          y = 1.22 λ R / a

let's calculate

            y = 1.22 500 10⁻⁹ 0.42 / 0.032

            y = 8 10⁻⁶ m

with this separation the points are resolved according to the Raleigh criterion, so that it is not resolved (separated)

                 y <8 10⁻⁶ m
