The officer is describing the motorcycle's acceleration. Of course when the bike goes from 0 to 80 in 6 seconds the police officer himself is left lying flat on his back in the parking lot.

A weight lifter lifts a dumbbell a certain height in 2.0 s, while a competitor does the same workin 1.0 s. Compared to the power
Aloiza [94]

Answer:

a. one-half as great

Explanation:

The power developed by the first lifter is one-half as great as that of the second person.

  Power is defined as the rate at which work is done;

          Power  = \frac{workdone}{time}

Since the two lifters do the same work at different time, let us estimate their power;

       P₁ = \frac{workdone}{2}                     P₂ = \frac{workdone }{1}

   We see that for P₁, power is half of the work done whereas in P₂ power is the same as the work done.

Therefore,

           The power of the first weight lifter is one-half the second lifter.

A baseball player friend of yours wants to determine his pitching speed. You have him stand on a ledge and throw the ball horizo
Alla [95]

Answer:

v_{ox}= 19.6\ m/s

Explanation:

Data provided in the question:

Height above the ground, H= 5.0m

Range of the ball, R= 20 m

Initial horizontal velocity = v_{ox}

Initial vertical velocity= v_{oy}  (Since ball was thrown horizontally only)

Acceleration acting horizontally, a_x = 0 m/s²  [ Since no acceleration acts horizontally) ]

Vertical Acceleration, a_y = 9.8 m/s² (Since only gravity acts on it)

Let 't' be the time taken to reach ground

Therefore, using equations of motion, we have

H= v_{oy}t+\frac{1}{2}a_yt^2

5= (0)t+\frac{1}{2}(9.8)t^2

t= \frac{10}{9.8}=1.02 s

Then using Equations of motion for horizontal motion,

R= v_{ox}t+\frac{1}{2}a_xt^2

20= v_{ox}(1.02)+\frac{1}{2}(0)(1.02)^2

v_{ox}= 19.6\ m/s
