Janet jumps horizontally off a high diving platform with a velocity of 2.63 m/s and lands in the water 1.9 s later. How high is

the platform
Physics

soldier1979 [14.2K]3 years ago
5 0

Answer:

The height of the platform is 22.686 m.

Explanation:

Given;

initial velocity of Janet, u = 2.63 m/s

time of her motion, t = 1.9 s

The height of the platform is given by;

h = ut + ¹/₂gt²

substitute the given values and solve for height "h"

h = (2.63 x 1.9) + ¹/₂(9.8)(1.9)²

h = 4.997 + 17.689

h = 22.686 m

Therefore, the height of the platform is 22.686 m.

A trolley going down an inclined plane has an acceleration of 2cm/s^2 What will be its velocity
Snowcat [4.5K]

Answer:

V_{f} = 6 cm/s

Explanation:

<u><em>Given:</em></u>

Acceleration = a = 2 cm/s²

Time = t = 3s

Initial Velocity = V_{i} = 0 cm/s

<u><em>Required:</em></u>

Velocity = V_{f} = ?

<u><em>Formula:</em></u>

a = \frac{V_{f}-V_{i}}{t}

<u><em>Solution:</em></u>

2 = \frac{V_{f}-0}{3}

=> V_{f} = 2*3

=> V_{f} = 6 cm/s

A 2300 kg truck has put its front bumper against the rear bumper of a 2400 kg SUV to give it a push. With the engine at full pow
IrinaK [193]

Answer:

a) a_{max} = 3.8\,\frac{m}{s^{2}}, b) F = 9260\,N

Explanation:

a) The maximum possible acceleration that the truck can give to the SUV is:

a_{max} = \frac{18,000\,N}{2,400\,kg+2300\,kg}

a_{max} = 3.8\,\frac{m}{s^{2}}

b) The equation of equilibrium for the truck is:

18,000\,N - F = (2,300\,kg)\cdot (3.8\,\frac{m}{s^{2}})

The force of the SUV's bumper on the truck's bumper is:

F = 9260\,N

Two children are pulling and pushing a 30.0 kg sled. The child pulling the sled is exerting a force of 12.0 N at a 45o angle. Th
raketka [301]
In order to calculate the weight, we may simply use:
W = mg
W = 30 * 9.81
W = 294.3 N

The sum of the reaction force and the upward component of child pulling will be equal to total downward force. The force acting downwards is the weight. Therefore:
R + 12sin(45) = 294.3
R = 285.82 N

The acceleration can be found using the resultant force and the mass of the sled. The resultant force is:
F(r) = pulling force + pushing force - friction
F(r) = 12cos(45) + 8 - 5
F(r) = 11.48 N
a = F/m
a = 11.48 / 30
a = 0.38 m/s²

Which of these forms of radiation passes most easily through the disk of the Milky Way?
Rama09 [41]
<h2>Answer: 3 - infrared light</h2>

Explanation:

<u>There are certain areas of the Milky Way that cannot be observed using the visible range of the electromagnetic spectrum</u> (this includes blue light and red light). This is because these areas are covered or hidden behind columns of interstellar dust and dark matter.

However, using infrared light and sometimes radio waves, it is possible to observe the galaxy better, because this light manages to pass through all that interstellar dust.
