Answer:
The speed of the sound wave on the string is 545.78 m/s.
Explanation:
Given;
mass per unit length of the string, μ = 4.7 x 10⁻³ kg/m
tension of the string, T = 1400 N
The speed of the sound wave on the string is given by;
where;
v is the speed of the sound wave on the string
Substitute the given values and solve for speed,v,
Therefore, the speed of the sound wave on the string is 545.78 m/s.
a) 0.94 m
The work done by the snow to decelerate the paratrooper is equal to the change in kinetic energy of the man:
where:
is the force applied by the snow
d is the displacement of the man in the snow, so it is the depth of the snow that stopped him
m = 68 kg is the man's mass
v = 0 is the final speed of the man
u = 55 m/s is the initial speed of the man (when it touches the ground)
and where the negative sign in the work is due to the fact that the force exerted by the snow on the man (upward) is opposite to the displacement of the man (downward)
Solving the equation for d, we find:
b) -3740 kg m/s
The magnitude of the impulse exerted by the snow on the man is equal to the variation of momentum of the man:
where
m = 68 kg is the mass of the man
is the change in velocity of the man
Substituting,
Answer:
<em>Its speed will be 280 m/s</em>
Explanation:
<u>Constant Acceleration Motion</u>
It's a type of motion in which the speed of an object changes by an equal amount in every equal period of time.
If a is the constant acceleration, vo the initial speed, vf the final speed, and t the time, vf can be calculated as:
The object accelerates from rest (vo=0) at a constant acceleration of . The final speed at t=35 seconds is:
Its speed will be 280 m/s
