A water slide is constructed so that swimmers, starting from rest at the top of the slide, leave the end of the slide traveling

horizontally. As the drawing shows, one person hits the water 5.00 m from the end of the slide in a time of 0.270 s after leaving the slide. Ignore friction and air resistance, find the height H in the drawing.

Answer:

17.86 m

Explanation:

The first step is to find the velocity of the swimmer.

Velocity, v = s/t

Velocity, v = 5 / 0.27

Velocity, v = 18.52 m/s

Then, we find the height

h = ½gt²

h = ½ * 9.8 * 0.27²

h = 4.9 * 0.0729

h = 0.36 m

Next, we apply the law of conservation of energy

mgH = mgh + ½ mv²

9.8Hm = m(9.8 * 0.36 + 0.5 * 18.52²)

9.8H = 3.528 + 171.4952

9.8H = 175.02

H = 175.02 / 9.8

H = 17.86 m

Therefore, the needed height is 17.86 m

Neutron stars are extremely dense objects formed from the remnants of supernova explosions. Many rotate very rapidly. Suppose th
mihalych1998 [28]

Answer:

10989.55932 rad/s

Explanation:

m = Mass of object

M = Mass of neutron star = 2\times 1.989\times 10^{30}\ kg

R = Radius of neutron star = 13000 m

G = Gravitational constant = 6.67 × 10⁻¹¹ m³/kgs²

\omega = Angular speed

Here, the gravitational force will balance the centripetal force

\dfrac{GmM}{R^2}=mR\omega^2\\\Rightarrow \omega=\sqrt{\dfrac{GM}{R^3}}\\\Rightarrow \omega=\sqrt{\dfrac{6.67\times 10^{-11}\times 2\times 1.989\times 10^{30}}{13000^3}}\\\Rightarrow \omega=10989.55932\ rad/s

The greatest possible angular speed an object can have is 10989.55932 rad/s
