If he is jumping you are adding force which means that you will be falling twice as fast

Imagine you have just witnessed a small avalanche on a mountain while skiing, and two slushy snowballs just crashed together in
inn [45]
We have that the momentum p is given by the formula p=mv where m is the mass and v is the velocity. Since for A p=-14kgm/s and m=7, we have that the velocity is -14/7=-2m/s. Hence its speed is 2 m/s.
For b we have that p=15kgm/s and v=3m/s. Because m=p/v, we have m=3kg.
We also have that the momentum is conserved in this system. Hence, the net sum of the momentum of the 2 snowballs equals the momentum of the single giant ball. Hence, p(total)=p(combined)=-14+15=1kgm/s (momentum is a vector; the positive sign means that it tends to the positive direction).

7. A block of copper of unknown mass has an initial temperature of 65.4oC. The copper is immersed in a beaker containing 95.7g o
dolphi86 [110]

Answer:

37.34372 kg

Explanation:

m = Mass

\Delta T = Change in temperature

1 denotes water

2 denotes copper

c = Heat capacity

Heat is given by

Q=mc\Delta T

In this case the heat transfer will be equal

m_1c_1\Delta T_1=m_2c_2\Delta T_2\\\Rightarrow m_2=\frac{m_1c_1\Delta T_1}{c_2\Delta T_2}\\\Rightarrow m_2=\frac{95.7\times 4.18(24.2-22.7)}{0.39(65.4-24.2)}\\\Rightarrow m_2=37.34372\ kg

Mass of copper block is 37.34372 kg

The acceleration due to the earth's gravity, in si units, is 9.8 m/s2. in the absence of air friction, a ball is dropped from re
gogolik [260]
We don't know anything about the amount of distance it travels, but that's okay. The only equation we need here is 

velocity(final) = velocity(initial) + acceleration * time
vf = vi + (a * t)

The ball is dropped from rest, so vi = 0 m/s.
We want it so that the ball hits the ground with a final velocity of 60 m/s, so vf = 60 m/s. 
We are given the acceleration due to gravity, a = 9.8 m/s^2.
We are solving for the time, t = ?.

Now we just plug in the values.
vf = vi + (a * t)
60 m/s = 0 m/s + (9.8 m/s^2)*(t)

60 = 9.8t

60 / 9.8 = t

t = 6.122 s

Hopefully this is the right answer.
