Answer:

14 m/s

Explanation:

The following data were obtained from the question:

Mass = 50 kg

Initial velocity (u) = 0 m/s

Height (h) = 10 m

Acceleration due to gravity (g) = 9.8 m/s²

Final velocity (v) =?

The velocity (v) with which the person hit the water can be obtained as shown below:

v² = u² + 2gh

v² = 0² + (2 × 9.8 × 10)

v² = 0 + 196

v² = 196

Take the square root of both side

v = √196

v = 14 m/s

Therefore, he will hit the water with a speed of 14 m/s

The centripetal force acting on the space shuttle
tamaranim1 [39]

Answer:

(4) weight

Explanation:

The centripetal force acting on the space shuttle in orbit is given by:

F=m\frac{v^2}{r}

where

m is the mass of the shuttle

v is the tangential speed of the shuttle

r is the radius of its circular orbit

When the shuttle orbits the Earth, the centripetal force that keeps the shuttle in circular motion is given by the gravitational attraction between the shuttle and the Earth, which corresponds to the weight of the shuttle, and it is given by:

F=G\frac{Mm}{r^2}

where

G is the gravitational constant

M is the Earth's mass

And this force, therefore, corresponds to the centripetal force.

Which dog has the most kinetic energy
Blababa [14]
The formula to find the kinetic energy is:

Ek= 1/2 × m × v^2

1. Ek= 1/2×15×3^2
= 67.5 J

2.Ek= 1/2×8×4^2
=64 J

3.Ek= 1/2×12×5^2
= 150 J

4.Ek= 1/2×10×6^2
= 180 J

So the fourth dog has the most kinetic energy.

The vertical force f acts downward at A on the two membered frames. Determine the magnitude of the two components of F directed
galben [10]

Answer:

The magnitude will be "353.5 N". A further solution is given below.

Explanation:

The given values is:

F = 500 N

According to the question,

In ΔABC,

⇒ \angle BCA = (90-30)

⇒             =60^{\circ}

then,

⇒ \angle BAC=(180-45-60)

⇒             =75^{\circ}

Now,

The corresponding angle will be:

⇒ \angle FAC=60^{\circ}

⇒ \angle FAB=70+60

⇒             =135^{\circ}

Aspect of F across the AC arm will be:

= F\times cos(60)

On putting the values of F, we get

= 500\times (.5)

= 200 \ Newton

Component F along the AC (in magnitude) will be:

= F\times cos(135)

= 500\times (-.707)

= -353.5 \ N \
