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

kolezko [41]

Answer:

1800J

Explanation:

Given parameters:

Weight of the book  = 20N

Total distance covered  = 45m + 15m + 30m  = 90m

Unknown:

Total work performed on the books  = ?

Solution:

To solve this problem we must understand that work done is the force applied to move a body through a certain distance.

So;

    Work done  = Force x distance

  Work done  = 20 x 90  = 1800J

An astronaut in space pushes a piece of equipment to get it into the correct position. What does Newton's third law of motion te
Agata [3.3K]

Answer: C and D

The equipment would have stayed in the same exact location indefinitely until the very moment the astronaut applied force to it.

The equipment will continue moving in the same direction indefinitely unless another force is applied to stop it.

Explanation: According to Newton's first law of motion which state that; A body at rest will continue to be at rest, or in linear motion will continue to move in a straight line, unless an external force act on it.

The equipment would have stayed in the same exact location indefinitely until the very moment the astronaut applied force to it.

immediately the astronaut apply force to the object by pushing in, Newton's first law will be manifested in which the equipment will continue moving in the same direction indefinitely unless another force is applied to stop it.

The length of a 100 mm bar of metal increases by 0.3 mm when subjected to a temperature rise of 100°C. The coefficient of linear
Juli2301 [7.4K]

Answer:

α = 3×10^-5 K^-1

Explanation:

let ΔL be the change in length of the bar of metal, ΔT be the change in temperature, L be the original length of the metal bar and let α be the coefficient of linear expansion.

then, the coefficient of linear expansion is given by:

α = ΔL/(ΔT×L)

   = (0.3×10^-3)/(100)(100×10^-3)

   = 3×10^-5 K^-1

Therefore, the coefficient of linear expansion is 3×10^-5 K^-1

A steel ball and a wooden ball of the same diameter are released together from the top of a tower. In the absence of air resista
ella [17]

Answer:

False

Explanation:

The steel ball and the wooden ball do not have the same force acting on them because their masses are different. But, they have the same acceleration which is the acceleration due to gravity g = 9.8 m/s².

Using the equation of motion under freefall, s = ut +1/2gt². Since u = 0,

s = 1/2gt² ⇒ t = √(2s/g)

Since. s = height is the same for both objects, they land at the same time neglecting air resistance.
