A 74.1 kg high jumper leaves the ground with

Physics

pishuonlain [190]3 years ago

Answer:

4.80 m

Explanation:

We are given the mass of the high jumper, its initial velocity, and the acceleration of gravity. We are trying to find the vertical displacement of the high jumper.

Let's set the upwards direction to be positive and the downwards direction to be negative.

List out the relevant known variables.

  1. v₀ = 9.7 m/s
  2. a = -9.8 m/s²
  3. Δx = ?

We still need one more variable in order to use the constant acceleration equations. Since we are trying to find the max height of the jumper, we can use the fact that at the top of its trajectory, its final velocity will be 0 m/s.

    4. v = 0 m/s

Using these four variables, let's find the constant acceleration equation that contains these variables:

  • v² = v₀² + 2aΔx

Substitute the known values into the equation and solve for Δx.

  • (0)² = (9.7)² + 2(-9.8)Δx
  • 0 = 94.09 + (-19.6)Δx
  • -94.09 = -19.6Δx
  • Δx = 4.80

The high jumper can jump to a max height of 4.80 m.

An 88 kg worker stands on a bathroom scale in a motionless elevator. When the elevator begins to move, the scale reads 900 N. Fi
Aleks [24]

Answer:

The magnitude is "3.8 m/s²", in the upward direction.

Explanation:

The given values are:

Mass,

m = 88 kg

Scale reads,

T = 900 N

As we know,

⇒  N=mg

On substituting the given values, we get

⇒      =88\times 9.8

⇒      =862.4 \ N

Now,

⇒  T=mg-ma

On substituting the given values in the above equation, we get

⇒  900=862.4-9.8 a

On subtracting "862.4" from both sides, we get

⇒  900-862.4=862.4-9.8 a-862.4

⇒              37.6=-9.8a

⇒                   a=-\frac{37.6}{9.8}

⇒                   a=3.8 \ m/s^2 (upward direction)

Alisiya [41]

Answer:

The territory of Scotland was divided into two parts -- the highlands and the lowlands.

Explanation:

The people living in places of high altitudes are called highlanders. These high altitude places are called high lands and places with low elevations or altitudes are called the low lands. There are many differences between the two places and people experiences different difficulties in these places.

Some of the differences are :

The life of the people living in high lands are much more tougher than those living in the low lands. The highlanders have to work more hard than lowlanders.

The agricultural activities are more flourished in the low lands than in the high lands.

The low lands are more populated and highly industrialized than the high lands. Iron and steel industry, metal working industry and agriculture are some of the main industries of lowlands. They are the land of the Scottish nation.
