Vin Diesel jumps out of a plane. Gravity pulls on him with 184N of force and his parachute pushes him up with 82 N of force.

Lelu [443]3 years ago

Answer:

Fr = 102[N]

Explanation:

We must perform a free body diagram to understand the forces acting on Vin Diesel. In the attached image we see the forces related to his weight and the air resistance force.

We must analyze the forces in the Y axis, we see that we have the force of the air opposing the fall of Vin Diesel, in this way this force is negative since it opposes the movement, the fall.

∑Fy = 0

F_{weight}-F_{air}=F_{r}\\F_{r}= 184-82\\F_{r}=102[N]

A car slows down at -5.00 m/s² until it comes to a stop after travelling 15.0 m. What was the initial speed of the car?
lapo4ka [179]
<h2>Answer: 12.24m/s</h2>

According to <u>kinematics</u> this situation is described as a uniformly accelerated rectilinear motion. This means the acceleration while the car is in motion is constant.

Now, among the equations related to this type of motion we have the following that relates the velocity with the acceleration and the distance traveled:

V_{f}^{2}-V_{o}^{2}=2.a.d   (1)

Where:

V_{f} is the Final Velocity of the car. We are told "the car comes to a stop after travelling", this means it is 0.

V_{o} is the Initial Velocity, the value we want to find

a is the constant acceleration of the car (the negative sign means the car is decelerating)

d is the distance traveled by the car

Now, let's substitute the known values in equation (1) and find V_{o}:

0-V_{o}^{2}=2(-5m/{s}^{2})(15m)    (2)

-V_{o}^{2}=-150{m}^{2}/{s}^{2}    (3)

Multiplying by -1 on both sides of the equation:

V_{o}^{2}=150{m}^{2}/{s}^{2}    (4)

V_{o}=\sqrt{150{m}^{2}/{s}^{2}}    (5)

Finally:

V_{o}=12.24m/s >>>This is the Initial velocity of the car

What are the three longest wavelengths for standing waves on a 264- cm -long string that is fixed at both ends
miv72 [106K]

The three longest wavelengths for the standing waves on a 264-cm long string that is fixed at both ends are:

  1. 5.2 meters.
  2. 2.6 meters.
  3. 1.7meters.

Given data:

Length of the fixed string = 264cms = 2.64 meters

The wavelength for standing waves is given by:

λ = 2L/n

where,

  • λ is the wavelength
  • L is the length of the string

For n = 1,

  • λ = 2×2.6/1

= 5.2 meters

For n = 2,

  • λ = 2×2.6/2

= 2.6 meters

For n = 3,

  • λ = 2×2.6/3

= 1.7 meters

Standing on the roof of a (42.0+A) m tall building, you throw a ball straight up with an initial speed of (14.5+B) m/s. If the b
RSB [31]
First, we must find the vertical distance traveled upwards by the ball due to the throw. For this, we will use the formula:

2as = v² - u²

Because the final velocity v is 0 in such cases

s = -u²/2a; because both u and a are downwards, the negative sign cancels

s = 14.5² / 2*9.81
s = 10.72 meters

Next, to find the time taken to reach the ground, we need the height above the ground. This is:
45 + 10.72 = 55.72 m

We will use the formula 
s = ut + 0.5at²

to find the time taken with the initial velocity u = 0.

55.72 = 0.5 * 9.81 * t²

t = 3.37 seconds

A sample of radium-226 will decay to ¼ of its original amount after 3200 years. What is the half-life of radium-226?
lesantik [10]
<h3><u>Answer</u>;</h3>

1600 years

<h3><u>Explanation</u>;</h3>
  • Half life is the time taken for a radioactive isotope to decay by half of its original amount.
  • We can use the formula; N = O × (1/2)^n ; where N is the new mass, O is the original amount and n is the number of half lives.
  • A sample of radium-226 takes 3200 years to decay to 1/4 of its original amount.

Therefore;

<em>1/4 = 1 × (1/2)^n</em>

<em>1/4 = (1/2)^n </em>

<em>n = 2 </em>

Thus; <em>3200 years is equivalent to 2 half lives.</em>

<em>Hence, the half life of radium-226 is 1600 years</em>
