After leaving the end of a ski ramp, a ski jumper lands downhill at a point that is displaced 68.3 m horizontally from the end o

f the ramp. His velocity, just before landing, is 29.3 m/s and points in a direction 33.6 ° below the horizontal. Neglecting air resistance and any lift that he experiences while airborne, find (a) the magnitude and (b) the direction of his initial velocity when he left the end of the ramp.

Answer:

a)52.58 m/s

b)56.13°

Explanation:

assume the upward direction as positive

x-component of the velocity = 29.3×cos33.6°=24.40 m/s (remain constant)

y-component of the velocity which is -29.3sin33.6°= -16.21 m/s

time of flight = 68.3/24.40= 2.7991 seconds

now, we can obtain final velocity in y-direction

v_f_y= v_i_y-gt

v_f_y=-16.21-(-9.8)×2.7991

=43.66 m/s

v_0=\sqrt{29.3^2+43.66^2}

=52.58 m/s

for direction

tan^{-1}\frac{43.66}{29.3}

56.13° from the horizontal

The focal length for a spherical convex mirror is –20 cm. What is its radius of curvature?
Svetradugi [14.3K]

Answer:

40 cm

Explanation:

The focus of a spherical convex mirror is the point at which the rays of an object converge in the infinite, it is also the point at which an object must be placed so that its image is formed in the infinite. The distance from the focus to the origin is called the focal length and is called f. It is related to the radius of the mirror, R, according to:

f=-\frac{R}{2}

rewriting for R:

R=-2f=-2*-20cm=40 cm.
