A 72-kg boy is surfing and catches a wave which gives him an initial speed of 1.6 m/s. He then drops through a height of 1.61 m,

chubhunter [2.5K]

Answer:

2849.98 J

Explanation:

From the question,

Work done by the boy = change Potential energy of the boy + change in kinetic energy of the boy

W = ΔP + ΔK..................... Equation 1

Where W = work done by the boy, ΔP = change in potential energy of the boy, ΔK = Change in kinetic energy of the boy.

But,

ΔP = mgΔh.................... Equation 2

ΔK = 1/2mΔv²................. Equation 3

Where m = mass of the boy, Δh = change in height of the boy, Δv = change in velocity of the boy.

Substitute equation 2 and 3 into equation 1

W = mgΔh+1/2mΔv²................. Equation 4

Given: m = 72 kg, Δh = 1.61 m, Δv = 8.5-1.6 = 6.9 m/s, g = 9.8 m/s²

Substitute into equation 4

W = 72(9.8)(1.61)+1/2(72)(6.9²)

W = 1136.016+1713.96

W = 2849.98 J

The crankshaft in a race car goes from rest to 3000 rpm in 3.0 s . (a) What is the crankshaft's angular acceleration?

Talja [164]

Answer:

75 rotations

Explanation:

f0 = 0, f = 3000 rpm = 50 rps, t = 3 s

(a) use first equation of motion for rotational motion

w = w0 + α t

2 x 3.14 x 50 = 0 + α x 3

α = 104.67 rad/s^2

(b) Let θ be the angular displacement

use second equation of motion for rotational motion

θ = w0 t + 1/2 α t^2

θ = 0 + 0.5 x 104.67 x 3 x 3

θ = 471.015 rad

The angle turn in one rotation is 2 π radian.

Number of rotation = 471.015 / (2 x 3.14) = 75 rotations

19. After a snowstorm, you put on your frictionless skis and tie a rope to the back of your friend’s truck. Your total mass is 7

Kisachek [45]

Explanation:

It is given that,

Total mass is 70 kg

The truck exerts a constant force of 20 N.

Then the net force is given by :

F = ma

a is acceleration of rider

$a=\dfrac{F}{m}\\\\a=\dfrac{20}{70}\\\\a=\dfrac{2}{7}\ m/s^2$

Initial velocity of rider is 0. So, using equation of kinematics to find the final velocity as :

$v=u+at\\\\v=at\\\\v=\dfrac{2}{7}\times 15\\\\v=4.28\ m/s$

Since, 1 m/s = 2.23 mph

4.28 m/s = 9.57 mph

So, the speed of the rider is 4.28 m/s or 9.57 mph.
