You are standing a distance of 17.0 meters from the center of a merry-go-round. The merry-go-round takes 9.50 seconds to go comp

GenaCL600 [577]

Answer:

(a)11.24 m/s

(b)7.44 m/s

(c)409 N

(d) $539.55\mu$

(e) 0

Explanation:

The period for 1 circle $2\pi$ of the merry go around is 9.5s. It means the angular speed is:

$\omega = \theta / t = 2\pi / 9.5 \approx 0.661 rad/s$

(a)The speed is

$v = \omega * R = 0.661 * 17 = 11.24 m/s$

(b) Centripetal acceleration:

$a = \frac{v^2}{R} = \frac{11.24^2}{17} = 7.44 m/s^2$

(c) Magnitude of the force that keeps you go around at this acceleration

$F = ma = 55 * 7.44 = 409 N$

(d) let the coefficient of friction by $\mu$ . The frictional force shall be this coefficient multiplied by normal force reverting gravity of the man

$F_f = mg\mu = 55*9.81\mu = 539.55\mu$

An 89 kg man drops from rest on a diving board −3.1 m above the surface of the water and comes to rest 0.5 s after reaching the

OLga [1]

To solve this problem we will use the linear motion kinematic equations, for which the change of speed squared with the acceleration and the change of position. The acceleration in this case will be the same given by gravity, so our values would be given as,

$m= 89 kg\\x = 3.1 m\\t = 0.5s\\a = g = 9.8m/s^2$

Through the aforementioned formula we will have to

$v_f^2-v_i^2 = 2ax$

The particulate part of the rest, so the final speed would be

$v_f^2 = 2gx$

$v_f=\sqrt{2(9.8)(3.1)}$

$v_f = 7.79m/s$

Now from Newton's second law we know that

$F = ma$

Here,

m = mass

a = acceleration, which can also be written as a function of velocity and time, then

$F = m\frac{dv}{dt}$

Replacing we have that,

$F = (89)\frac{7.79}{0.5}$

$F = 1386.62N$

Therefore the force that the water exert on the man is 1386.62
