The 1994 Winter Olympics included the aerials competition in skiing. In this event skiers speed down a ramp that slopes sharply

upward at the end. The sharp upward slope launches them into the air, where they perform acrobatic maneuvers. In the women's competition, the end of a typical launch ramp is directed 61° above the horizontal. With this launch angle, a skier attains a height of 16 m above the end of the ramp. What is the skier's launch speed?

Answer: Got It!

<em>Explanation:  </em>let s = speed at launch

v = 0 at top = s sin 63 - g t

so at top

t = s sin 63/g = .0909 s

h = 13.6 = s sin 63 t - 4.9 t^2

13.6 = .081s^2 - .0405 s^2

s^2 = 336

s = 18.3 m/s

Studying this brochure from nasa, which explains more detail the instruments carried by the Juno spacecraft which scientific act
adoni [48]

Answer:

Juno scientific payload includes:

  • A gravity/radio science system (Gravity Science)
  • A six-wavelength microwave radiometer for atmospheric sounding and composition (MWR)
  • A vector magnetometer (MAG)
  • Plasma and energetic particle detectors (JADE and JEDI)
  • A radio/plasma wave experiment (Waves)
  • An ultraviolet imager/spectrometer (UVS)
  • An infrared imager/spectrometer (JIRAM)

Explanation:

Each mission of NASA has a specific set of instruments that it uses to perform scientific experiments on the desired heavenly body. In case of Juno, the mission for Jupiter has a series of instruments that would study domains of gravitational forces, magnetic effect, particle detection, radiation detection, UV/IR imaging, and plasma experiments.

A spring with force constant of 59 N/m is compressed by 1.3 cm in a hockey game machine. The compressed spring is used to accele
Furkat [3]

Answer:

The puck moves a vertical height of 2.6 cm before stopping

Explanation:

As the puck is accelerated by the spring, the kinetic energy of the puck equals the elastic potential energy of the spring.

So, 1/2mv² = 1/2kx² where m = mass of puck = 39.2 g = 0.0392 g, v = velocity of puck, k = spring constant = 59 N/m and x = compression of spring = 1.3 cm = 0.013 cm.

Now, since the puck has an initial velocity, v before it slides up the inclined surface, its loss in kinetic energy equals its gain in potential energy before it stops. So

1/2mv² = mgh where h = vertical height puck moves and g = acceleration due to gravity = 9.8 m/s².

Substituting the kinetic energy of the puck for the potential energy of the spring, we have

1/2kx² = mgh

h = kx²/2mg

= 59 N/m × (0.013 m)²/(0.0392 kg × 9.8 m/s²)

= 0.009971 Nm/0.38416 N

= 0.0259 m

= 2.59 cm

≅ 2.6 cm

So the puck moves a vertical height of 2.6 cm before stopping

Riding in a car, you suddenly put on the brakes. As you experience it inside the car, do Newton's law apply? Do they apply as se
alisha [4.7K]

Answer with Explanation:

Newton's laws are applicable for inertial frames of reference which is a frame which is not accelerating when seen from the observer standing on earth.

For the person as he presses the brakes his frame is a decelerating frame of reference hence he cannot apply the newtons laws of motion as they are in their original form but if he analyses the motion he has to apply a correction known as  pseudo-force on the object he is analyzing. Pseudo Force has no basis in newton's laws but are a correction that needs to be applied if he wishes to analyse the motion from non inertial frame of reference

While as a person standing on earth outside the car since his frame is an inertial frame of reference he can apply newton's laws of motion without any correction.
