A 50 kg trapeze artist falls from a height of 10 m, and has a speed of 14 m/s just before hitting the safety net. How much time

is needed in order for them to stop if the maximum amount of force they can withstand is 500N?

Answer:

t = 1.4 s

Explanation:

momentum of the trapeze just before hitting the net = 50 x 14 kg m/s

= 700 kg m/s

final momentum = 0

change in momentum required = 700 - 0 = 700

If F be the maximum force and t be the time of action of force

impulse = force x time = F x t

500 x t

impulse = change in momentum

500 x t = 700

t = 1.4 s .

What is the force of gravity between two 50.0kg masses that are separated by 0.300m?3.71x10-8N5.59x10-7N2.78x104N1.85x10-6N
Varvara68 [4.7K]

We will have the following:

\begin{gathered} F=G\frac{m_1m_2}{r^2}\Rightarrow F=\frac{(6.67\ast10^{-11}m^3\ast kg^{-1}\ast s^{-2})(50kg)(50kg)}{(0.3m)^2} \\  \\ \Rightarrow F=1.852777778...\ast10^{-6}N\Rightarrow F\approx1.85\ast10^{-6}N \end{gathered}

So, the force is approximately 1.85*10^-6 N.

why is a train more difficult to stop then a rolling ball even if they are traveling at the same speed? URGENT
zloy xaker [14]
Think of the formula force=mass x acceleration. even though they have the same acceleration, a train has more mass. is that helpful?

An engineering firm is designing a ski lift. The wire rope needs to travel with a linear velocity of 2.0 meters per second, and
Mazyrski [523]

Answer:

The diameter of the bull-wheel is 3.82

Explanation:

Given that,

Velocity = 2.0 m/s

Angular velocity = 10 rev/m

\omega=10\times\dfrac{2\pi}{60}

\omega=1.0472\ rad/s

We need to calculate the diameter of bull-wheel

Using formula of angular velocity

v= r\omega

r=\dfrac{v}{\omega}

Put the value into the formula

r=\dfrac{2.0}{1.0472}

r=1.91\ m

The diameter of the bull-wheel

D=2r

D=2\times1.91

D=3.82\ m

Hence, The diameter of the bull-wheel is 3.82 m.

A shell of mass m and speed v explodes into two identical fragments. If the shell was moving horizontally (the positive x direct
-Dominant- [34]

Answer:

The velocity of the other fragment immediately following the explosion is v .

Explanation:

Given :

Mass of original shell , m .

Velocity of shell , + v .

Now , the particle explodes into two half parts , i.e  \dfrac{m}{2} .

Since , no eternal force is applied in the particle .

Therefore , its momentum will be conserved .

So , Final momentum = Initial momentum

mv=\dfrac{mv}{2}+\dfrac{mu}{2}\\\\u=v

The velocity of the other fragment immediately following the explosion is v .
