Answer:
715 N
Explanation:
Since the system is moving at a constant velocity, the net force must be 0. The tension on the road is equal and opposite direction with the kinetic friction force created by the road and the stuntman.
Let g = 9.8 m/s2
Gravity and equalized normal force is:
N = P = mg = 107*9.8 = 1048.6 N
Kinetic friction force and equalized tension force on the rope is
Answer:
4.5 s, 324 ft
Explanation:
The object is projected upward with an initial velocity of
The equation that describes its height at time t is
(1)
where t, the time, is measured in seconds.
In order to find the time it takes for the object to reach the maximum height, we must find an expression for its velocity at time t, which can be found by calculating the derivative of the position, s(t):
(2)
At the maximum heigth, the vertical velocity is zero:
v(t) = 0
Substituting into the equation above, we find the corresponding time at which the object reaches the maximum height:
And by substituting this value into eq.(1), we also find the maximum height:
