If you jumped out of a plane, you would begin speeding up as you fall downward. Eventually, due to wind resistance, your velocit

y would become constant with time. While your velocity is constant, the magnitude of the force of wind resistance is

Answer:

Mg or your weight.

Explanation:

When your velocity is constant, the net force acting on you is 0. That means the upwards force of air resistance must fully balance the downwards force of gravity on you, which is Mg.

a baseball player is dashing toward home plate with a speed of 200 feet per hour. When he decides to hit the dirt. he slides for
Serggg [28]

To solve this problem we will use the kinematic formula for the final velocity.


V_f_x = V_0_x + a_xt


The final speed is 0 at the moment the player stops.


The time until it stops is 1.3 s


The initial speed is 200 feet / s  Note (check the speed units in the problem statement, 200ft / s is very much and 200ft / h is very small)

Then, we clear the formula.


a_x = \frac{(Vfx-V0x)}{t}\\ a_x = \frac{(0-200)}{1.3}\\ a_x = -153.5 ft / s ^ 2

Because the player is slowing down, the acceleration goes in the opposite direction to the player's movement, and that is why it is negative.



To answer part b) we use the following formula.


Vf ^ 2 = Vo ^ 2 + 2a * (x_2 - x_1)\\\\ (x_2 - x_1)= \frac{(V_f ^ 2-V_0 ^ 2)}{2a}\\\\ (x_2 - x_1)= \frac{(0-200 ^ 2)}{- 2 * 153.5}\\\\ (x_2 - x_1)= 130.29 feet

A particle on a spring moves in simple harmonic motion along the x axis between turning points at x1 = 95 cm and x2 = 135 cm. (i
uranmaximum [27]

Answer:

(i) x = 115\,cm, (ii) x = 95\,cm, (iii) x = 95\,cm

Explanation:

(i) x_{1} and x_{2} represent the points where particle has a velocity of zero and spring reach maximum deformation, Given the absence of non-conservative force and by the Principle of Energy Conservation, the position where particle is at maximum speed is average of both extreme positions:

x = 115\,cm

(ii) Maximum accelerations is reached at x_{1} and x_{2}.

x = 95\,cm

(iii) Greatest net forces exerted on the particle are reached at  x_{1} and x_{2}.

x = 95\,cm
