What forces are acting on your body during a bungee jump?
LiRa [457]

Answer:

The first force that the bungee jumper experiences is gravity, which pulls down on everything and makes the jumper fall. The gravitational force is almost exactly constant throughout the jump. During the bungee jumper's fall, he or she also experiences a force due to air resistance.

A 100-year flood is the flooding elevation that has a one percent chance of happening each year. Why is the name misleading
fenix001 [56]
One percent annual chance of flooding does not mean it will happen with absolute certainty once every 100 years. Just that the expected value of a flood in 100 years is one.

As an example, heads has a 50% chance of happening every coin flip. With 2 coin flips, the expected value is one. However, it would be a misnomer to call "heads" a 2-flip outcome.

Pete Zaria applies a 4.0-N force to a 1.0-kg mug of root beer to accelerate it over a distance of 1.0-meter along the countertop
Orlov [11]

Answer:

Work done = 4 J

Final Kinetic Energy = 4 J

Explanation:

From the question,

Work done = force × distance

W = F×d................... Equation 1

Given: F = 4.0 N, d = 1.0 meter.

Substitute these values into equation 1

W = 4×1

W = 4 Joules.

Also,

Kenetic Energy = 1/2 × mass × velocity×velocity.

K.E = 1/2(mv²)........... (2).

But,

F = ma

Where F = 4 N, m = 1 kg.

a = 4/1 = 4 m/s².

Using,

v² = u² + 2as............. Equation 3

Where u = 0 m/s, a = 4 m/s², s = 1 m.

Substitute into equation 3

v² = 0² +2×4×1

v² = 8

v = √8 m/s.

Substitutting into equation 2

K.E = 1/2(1)(√8)²

K.E = 1/2(8)

K.E = 4 J.

Hence the work done and the Final Kinetic energy are thesame = 4 J

Explain the following behaviour of molecules water rises up in a harrow tubes but mercury which is also a liquid falls in a narr
Mandarinka [93]

Answer: find the answer in the explanation

Explanation:

The capillarity of water molecules is different from the mercury molecules.

What is capillarity ?

This is the tendency of a liquid substance to rise in a capillary tube.

Molecules water rises up in a harrow tubes because of the force of adhesion between the water molecules and the tube molecules is greater than the force of cohesion between the water molecules. This helps water to wet the tube and rise. While mercury which is also a liquid falls in a narrow tubes to level below the outside surface because the force of cohesion between the mercury molecules is greater than the force of adhesion between the mercury molecules and the tube molecules. Mercury does not wet.
