A 49 kg pole vaulter running at 10 m/s vaults over the bar. Her speed when she is above the bar is 0.7 m/s. The acceleration of

gravity is 9.8 m/s2. Find her altitude as she crosses the bar. Neglect air resistance, as well as any energy absorbed by the pole.

Answer:

Height will be 5.127 m

Explanation:

We have given mass m = 49 kg

Speed over the bar v = 10 m /sec

Acceleration due to gravity g=9.8m/sec^2

Kinetic energy on the ground =\frac{1}{2}mv^2=\frac{1}{2}\times 49\times 10^2=2450J

Potential energy on the ground =mgh=0 (as height will be zero )

Speed above the bar = 0.7 m /sec

So kinetic energy above the bar =\frac{1}{2}mv^2=\frac{1}{2}\times 49\times 0.7^2=12J

Potential energy above the bar = mgh

From energy conservation

Total kinetic energy = total potential energy

So 2450+12=0+49\times 9.8\times h

h=5.127m

Where is the sun's energy most concentrated
Maru [420]

B. At the equator

Explanation:

The energy coming from the Sun hits the Earth's surface at different angles, depending on the latitude of the place. The more perpendicular the ray of lights hit the surface, the more the energy transmitted to the Earth's surface, the warmer the location.

The angle at which the ray of lights hit the Earth is related to the latitude: in particular, the ray of lights arrive perpendicular at the equator (0^{\circ}), they arrive at larger angle in the United States (which is located at intermediate latitudes) and they arrive at the largest angles at the poles. For this reason, the sun's most energy is concentrated at the equator.

Answer:

a

\theta_{max} =18.38^o

b

New  n_{cladding} =1.491

Explanation:

 From the question we are told that

          The refractive index of the core is  n_{core} = 1.497

         The refractive index of the cladding  is   n_{cladding} = 1.421

Generally according to Snell's law

      n_{core} * sin(90- \theta) = n_{cladding} * sin (90)

Where \theta_{max} is the largest angle a largest angle a ray will make with respect to the interface of the fiber and experience total internal reflection

      \theta_{max} = 90 - sin^{-1} [\frac{n_{cladding}}{n_{core}} ]

       \theta_{max} = 90 - sin^{-1} [\frac{1.421}{1.497}} ]

      \theta_{max} =18.38^o

Given from the question the the largest angle is  5°

Generally the refraction index of the cladding is mathematically represented as

           n_{cladding} = n_{core} * sin (90 - 5)

          n_{cladding} =1.491

A student is trying to decide what to wear. His bedroom is at 20.0°C. His skin temperature is 30.0°C. The area of his exposed sk
Advocard [28]

Answer:

Explanation:

Stefan's Boltzman Law gives the value of radiation from a black body at a particular temperature. The relation is

E = eσ ( T₂⁴ -T₁⁴ )

e is emmisivity , σ is a constant = 5.67 x 10⁻⁸ , E is energy emitted per unit time per unit area

E = .915 x 5.67 x 10⁻⁸ x ( 303⁴ -293⁴ )

= .915 x 5.67 x 10⁻⁸ x ( 84.28 -73.70 ) x 10⁸

= 55 W / m²s

Area A = 1.45 m²

time t = 14.3 min

= 858 s

Total radiation

= 55 x 858 x 1.45 W

= 68425 J

State the relative position for the sun and earth during the lunar eclipse (ASAP)
Mademuasel [1]

Answer:

Solar eclipses result from the Moon blocking the Sun relative to the Earth; thus Earth, Moon and Sun all lie on a line. Lunar eclipses work the same way in a different order: Moon, Earth and Sun all on a line. In this case the Earth's shadow hides the Moon from view.
