i would say that the child with more linear speed is the cild that is 3 meters away from the center of the merry go round. because the child that is 0.5 meters from the center of the merry go round is less linear because the steering of the merry go round is started from the outer part of the merry go round so it would make more sense that the child that is 3 meters from the center of the merry go round would be more linear in speed.

hope this helps!

A gang of robbers is escaping across city roofs at night. They come to the edge of one building and need to drop down to their g
REY [17]

Answer:

a) They will hit the ground with a speed of 19.6 m/s.

b) They are at a height of 20 m.

c) It is not a safe jump.

Explanation:

Hi there!

a) The equations of height and velocity in function of time of a free falling body are the following:

h = h0 + v0 · t + 1/2 · g · t²

v = v0 + g · t

Where:

h = height of the object at time t.

h0 = initial height.

v0 = initial velocity.

t = time.

g = acceleration due to gravity (-9.8 m/s² considering downward as negative direction).

v = velocity of the object at time t.

Using the equation of velocity, let's find the velocity at which they will hit the ground. The pebble is dropped (initial velocity = 0) and it takes 2 s to reach the ground:

v = v0 + g · t     (v0 = 0)

v = g · t

v = -9.8 m/s² · 2.0 s

v = -19.6 m/s

They will hit the ground with a speed of 19.6 m/s.

b)Now, we have to use the equation of height:

h = h0 + v0 · t + 1/2 · g · t²

If we place the origin of the frame of reference on the ground, we have to find the initial height (h0) knowing that at t = 2.0 s, h = 0 m

0 m = h0 - 1/2 · 9.8 m/s² · (2.0 s)²

h0 = 1/2 · 9.8 m/s² · (2.0 s)²

h0 = 20 m

They are at a height of 20 m.

c)According to a NASA paper (Issues on Human Acceleration Tolerance After Long-Duration Space Flights, figure 10), if you fall with a vertical velocity greater than 17 m/s it is unlikely that you will survive. So, it is not a safe jump.
