A 75.0-kg ice skater moving at 10.0 m/s crashes into a stationary skater of equal mass. After the collision, the two skaters mov

e as a unit at 5.00 m/s. Suppose the average force a skater can experience without breaking a bone is 4 500 N. If the impact time is 0.100 s, does a bone break?

Answer:

Explanation:

Momentum change for either skater is mΔv = 75.0(5.0) = 375 kg•m/s

As a change in momentum is equal to an impulse

375 = FΔt

F = 375/0.100 = 3750 N

As 3750 N < 4500 N no bones are broken.

The equation to be used is for the rectilinear motion at constant acceleration:

x = v₀t + 0.5at²
a = (v-v₀)/t
where
x is distance
v and v₀ is the final and initial velocity
t is time
a is acceleration

Because the acceleration is decelerating, that would be reported as -7.5 m/s². Substituting,

-7.5 = (0 - v₀)/t
v₀ = 7.5 t --> eqn 1

x = v₀t + 0.5at²
60 = (7.5t)(t) + 0.5(-7.5)(t²)
Solving for t,
t = 4s

Thus,
v₀ = 7.5 m/s² * 4s
v₀ = 30 m/s

<span>If a plane has a velocity of 300 km/h and a tailwind of 20 km/h, then the vectors of both forces would add (assuming that the tailwind is blowing exactly at the airplanes back) to a total of 320 km/h. Hope it helps

An airplane travels at 300 mi/h south for 2.00 h and then at 250 mi/h north for 750 miles. What is the average speed for the tri
Pie
Avg sped = total distance/ total time = 1350 mi/ 5 hrs= 270mph (i dont know if ur teacher wants you to convert this to m/s) 

300miles are traveled in 1 hr. So, 300 *2hrs = 600 miles south
750/250= 3hrs north
Total distance = 600 miles + 750 miles= 1350 miles
Total time is =  3hrs + 2hrs= 5hrs
