Question:
A 63.0 kg sprinter starts a race with an acceleration of 4.20m/s square. What is the net external force on him? If the sprinter from the previous problem accelerates at that rate for 20m, and then maintains that velocity for the remainder for the 100-m dash, what will be his time for the race?
Answer:
Time for the race will be t = 9.26 s
Explanation:
Given data:
As the sprinter starts the race so initial velocity = v₁ = 0
Distance = s₁ = 20 m
Acceleration = a = 4.20 ms⁻²
Distance = s₂ = 100 m
We first need to find the final velocity (v₂) of sprinter at the end of the first 20 meters.
Using 3rd equation of motion
(v₂)² - (v₁)² = 2as₁ = 2(4.2)(20)
v₂ = 12.96 ms⁻¹
Time for 20 m distance = t₁ = (v₂ - v ₁)/a
t₁ = 12.96/4.2 = 3.09 s
He ran the rest of the race at this velocity (12.96 m/s). Since has had already covered 20 meters, he has to cover 80 meters more to complete the 100 meter dash. So the time required to cover the 80 meters will be
Time for 100 m distance = t₂ = s₂/v₂
t₂ = 80/12.96 = 6.17 s
Total time = T = t₁ + t₂ = 3.09 + 6.17 = 9.26 s
T = 9.26 s
Answer:
the thickness of the glass divided by thickness of water is going to be 1.333 divided by 1.52, which is 0.877. So, the height of this glass, in order to have the same number of wavelengths as in water, the height of the glass will be 0.877 times the height of the water, and so it will be smaller.
A wall uses diffuse reflection while a mirror uses specular reflection. For example, when parallel light rays enter a mirror, they remain parallel when exiting the mirror, allowing you to see a reflection of the light rays. On the contrary, when incident light rays enter a wall which is painted, the rays scatter, not allowing you to see anything but a painted wall.
Answer:
r = 0m is the Minimum distance from the axis at which the block can remain in place wothout skidding.
Explanation:
From a sum of forces:
where Ff = μ * N and 
N - m*g = 0 So, N = m*g. Replacing everything on the original equation:
(eq2)
Solving for r:
If we analyze eq2 you can conclude that as r grows, the friction has to grow (assuming that ω is constant), so the smallest distance would be 0 and the greatest 1.41m. Beyond that distance, μ has to be greater than 0.83.
The correct answer is: 1792g or 1800g.
(When you round it)
