An 80-kg firefighter slides down a fire pole. After 1.3 seconds of sliding, the firefighter is sliding at a velocity of 6.5 m/s,

straight down the pole. Once this velocity is reached, the firefighter grips the pole so that the force of friction exerted by the firefighter's hands on the pole is equal to the force of gravity. At this point what is the downward acceleration of the firefighter

Answer:

a= 0

Explanation:

  • In the vertical direction, if the friction force (directed upward) is equal to the force of gravity (downward) this means that no net force is acting on the firefighter.
  • According to Newton's 2nd Law, if no net force is present, the acceleration in this direction is just zero, as follows:

       F_{net} = m*a = 0  (1)

      ⇒ a = 0

A child sits 1.6 m from the center of a merry go round that makes one complete revolution in 4.7 s. What is his angular accelera
olga2289 [7]

Answer: angular acceleration = 2.86\ rad/sec^{2}

Given:

Distance from center of axis = 1.6 m

Time taken to complete one revolution = 4.7 sec

Therefore, we can evaluate the angular acceleration using the following formula:

\alpha = r\times \omega^{2}

\alpha = r\times (\frac{2\pi}{T})^{2}

\alpha = 1.6\times (\frac{2\times3.14}{4.7})^{2}

\alpha = 2.86\ rad/sec^{2}

A window in a skyscraper has a surface area of 3.50 m^2. Wind rushes by the outside of the window at 17.4 m/s, while inside the
Mariana [72]

The difference in the pressure between the inside and outside will be 369.36 N/m²

<h3>What is pressure?</h3>

The force applied perpendicular to the surface of an item per unit area across which that force is spread is known as pressure.

It is denoted by P. The pressure relative to the ambient pressure is known as gauge pressure.

The given data in the problem is;

dP is the change in the presure=?

Using Bernoulli's Theorem;

\rm  \rho\frac{V^2_{12}}{2} +P_1= \rho \frac{V^2_{22}}{2} +P_2 \\\\\ P_2-P_1=\rho \frac{v_2^2-v_1^2}{2} \\\\  P_2-P_1= 1.21 \times \frac{17.4^2-0}{2} \\\\  \triangle p=369.36 \ N/m^2

Hence, the difference in the pressure between the inside and outside will be 369.36 N/m²
