A BASE jumper runs off a cliff with a speed of Which of the following is closest to his speed after 0.5 seconds?
devlian [24]

Answer:

8m/s

Explanation:

The question is incomplete.

But if the given speed is 3m/s

t= 0.5s

From Newton's equation of motion v=u+at

U= 3m/s

V= 3+ 0.5×10 a=10m/s^2

v= 8m/s

An archer shoots an arrow at an 85.0 m distant target; the bulls eye of the target is at same height as the release height of th
inessss [21]

Answer:

  a) 14.1°

  b) over

Explanation:

The usual model of ballistic motion assumes that the only force on the flying object is that due to gravity. When an object is launched with initial velocity v0 at some angle θ with respect to the horizontal, the distance it travels is ...

  d = (v0)²sin(2θ)/g

Using this relation, we can find the launch angle to make the object travel a given distance:

  θ = 1/2arcsin(dg/v0²) . . . . where g is the acceleration due to gravity

__

<h3>a)</h3>

For the arrow to hit a target 85 m away at the same height it was launched with speed 42.0 m/s, the launch angle must be ...

  θ = 1/2arcsin(dg/v0²) = 1/2(arcsin(85·9.8/42²)) ≈ 14.0893°

The arrow must be released at an angle of about 14.1°.

__

<h3>b)</h3>

The flight time to the tree at a distance of 42.5 m will be that distance divided by the horizontal speed:

  t = 42.5/(42cos(14.0893°)) ≈ 1.0433 . . . . seconds

The height at that time is ...

  h(t) = -4.9t² +42sin(14.0893°)t ≈ 5.33 . . . meters

The arrow will go <em>over</em> the branch.

_____

<em>Additional comment</em>

Since gravity provides the only force on the arrow, its horizontal speed is constant at vh = v0·cos(θ), when the arrow is launched with speed v0 at angle θ above the horizontal. Its vertical speed will be reduced by the acceleration of gravity, so will be vv = v0·sin(θ) -gt. The height is the integral of the vertical speed, so is ...

  h(t) = (1/2)gt² +v0·sin(θ)t

The height will be 0 at t=0 and at t=2v0sin(θ)/g, so the horizontal distance traveled will be ...

  d = vh·t

  = (v0·cos(θ))(2v0·sin(θ)/g) = (v0²/g)(2·sin(θ)cos(θ))

  = v0²sin(2θ)/g

Note that this is all simplified by the fact that the target and launch point are at the same level (h=0).

An elevator cab is pulled directly upward by a single cable. The elevator cab and its single occupant have a mass of 2300 kg. Wh
Murrr4er [49]

Answer:

15.64 KN

Explanation:

mass of the elevator cab with a single occupant= 2300 kg

acceleration relative to the cab a_{ce}= 6.80 m/s^2

acceleration of the coin relative to the cab in the opposite direction of motion of cab so we can consider it as a= -6.80 m/s^2

The acceleration of elevator cab relative to the ground a_{cg}

now we can say that

a_{ce} +a_{eg} =a_{cg}

=-6.80+ a_{eg}= -9.8

[tex]a_{eg}=-9.8+6.80=-3.8

The forces that act on elevator cab are tension and gravitational, applying newtons second law

T- mg= ma_{eg}

Then the tension in the cable is

T= 2300(-3.8)+2300×9.8=  15640 N= 15.64 KN

therefore tension in the string will be 15.64 KN
