Catching a wave, a 77 kg surfer starts with a speed of 1.3 m/s, drops through a height of 1.65 m, and ends with a speed of 8.2 m

/s. How much non-conservative work was done on the surfer?

Answer:

Explanation:

The total work done by the wave is expressed as;

Workdone = Potential energy + Kinetic energy

Workdone = mgh + 1/2mv²

m is the mass = 77kg

g is the acceleration due to gravity = 9.8m/s²

v is the velocity = 8.2m/s

h is the height = 1.65m

Substitute into the formula;

Workdone = 77(9.8)(1.65) + 1/2(77)8.2²

Workdone = 1245.09 + 2588.74

Workdone = 3833.83Joules

Hence the amount of non conservative work done on the sofa is 3833.83Joules

Julli [10]

Answer:

1) p₀ = 0.219 kg m / s, p = 0, 2)  Δp = -0.219 kg m / s, 3) 100%

Explanation:

For the first part, which is speed just before the crash, we can use energy conservation

Initial. Highest point

            Em₀ = U = mg y

Final. Low point just before the crash

           Emf = K = ½ m v²

          Em₀ = Emf

          m g y = ½ m v²

           v = √ 2 g y

Let's calculate

           v = √ (2 9.8 0.05)

           v = 0.99 m / s

1) the moment before the crash is

           p₀ = m v

           p₀ = 0.221 0.99

           p₀ = 0.219 kg m / s

After the collision, the car's speed is zero, so its moment is zero.

           p = 0

2) change of momentum

           Δp = p - p₀

            Δp = 0- 0.219

            Δp = -0.219 kg m / s

3) the reason is

     Δp / p = 1

In percentage form it is 100%

Since vectors always have positive magnitudes, the sum of two vectors must have a magnitude greater than the magnitude of either
Natasha2012 [34]

Answer:

False.

Explanation:

Yes the magnitude of a vector is always positive , but a vector consists of

  • magnitude
  • direction

when two vectors are added their direction may be opposite to each other For example-

a=3i+3j

b=3i-6j ,

then their resultant

r=b+a\\r=3i+3j+3i-6j\\r=6i-3j

This resultant vector's x and y component equal to y and x component of vector b so its magnitude will be equal to magnitude of vector b.

Therefore, the resultant magnitude not necessary equal to the magnitude of either vector.
