A pendulum is an object hung from a fixed point that swings back and forth under the action of gravity. In the example of the playground swing, the swing is supported by chains that are attached to fixed points at the top of the swing set. When the swing is raised and released, it will move freely back and forth due to the force of gravity on it. The swing continues moving back and forth without any extra outside help until friction (between the air and the swing and between the chains and the attachment points) slows it down and eventually stops it.

Is there a frame of reference one can go into that seems to eliminate gravity as Newton described it?
andriy [413]

Answer:

Yes such a frame exists: a free-fall (free-float frame) frame. This frame of reference is subject only to gravity and no forces such as electromagnetic forces or nuclear forces.

I have no idea what to do. Plz help!
aleksklad [387]
Work is (force) times (distance). For Amy, you know both of them, and you can easily multiply them to find the amount of work. For Joe, the distance is zero, which should tell you all you need to know.

A 75-kg sprinter accelerates from rest to a speed of 11.0 m/s in 5.0 s. (a) calculate the mechanical work done by the sprinter d
mezya [45]

The mechanical work done by the sprinter during this time will be 4537.5 J , the average power the sprinter must generate will be 907.5 W and if the sprinter converts food energy to mechanical energy with an efficiency of 25% then he will be burning calories at 54.20 calories per second.

Work in physics is the energy that is transferred to or from an item when a force is applied along a displacement. It is frequently described in its most basic form as the result of force and displacement.

The quantity of energy moved or transformed per unit of time is known as power in physics. The watt, or one joule per second, is the unit of power in the International System of Units.. A scalar quantity is power.

Given 75-kg sprinter accelerates from rest to a speed of 11.0 m/s in 5.0 s.

So let,

m = 75 kg

v = 11.0 m/s

t = 5.0 s

So the mechanical work done by the sprinter during this time will be as follow:

W = 0.5 mv²

W = 0.5 (75)(11)²

W = 4537.5 J

The average power the sprinter must generate will be as follow:

Power(P) = W / t

P =  4537.5/5

P = 907.5 W

Only 25% is absorbed. So, the sprinter only absorbed 226.875 J per second which is equal to 54.20 calories per second.

Hence   mechanical work done by the sprinter during this time will be 4537.5 J , the average power the sprinter must generate will be 907.5 W and if the sprinter converts food energy to mechanical energy with an efficiency of 25% then he will be burning calories at 54.20 calories per second.
