When landing from a jump, a basketball player of mass 82 kg has a velocity of 1.2 m/s right before they hit the ground. The play

er then lands on the floor with their feet and is quickly brought to a stop. If the the floor deforms by 0.025 m while the player lands on it, what was the average force under the player's feet during the landing

Answer:

2361.6N

Explanation:

Mass of player = 82kg

Velocity = 1.2m/s

Kinetic energy of player:

= 1/2mv²

= 1/2*82*1.2²

= 41x1.44

= 59.04J

Final kinetic energy = 0

Change in kinetic energy

|∆k| = |0-59.04|

= 59.04

Workdone by the feet = fd

d = 0.025

Fd = 59.04

F = 59.04/0.025

= 2361.6N

This is his average force.

Does an increase in velocity necessarily mean an increase in acceleration?
Vinil7 [7]
We know, acceleration = final velocity - initial velocity / time
Here, if velocity is increasing, then, 
Final velocity > initial velocity, in that case, acceleration is also increasing, as it is directly proportional to velocity

In short, Your Answer would be "Yes"

Hope this helps!

A baseball is thrown with an initial velocity of 45.4 m/s at an angle of 31.2 ∘ .
sveticcg [70]

Answer:

V (initial vertical velocity) = 45.4 sin 31.2 = 23.52 m/s

1/2 m V^2 = m g h      conservation of energy

h = V^2 / (2 g) = 23.52^2 / 19.6 = 28.2 m       max height

Check:

t = 28.2 / 9.8 = 2.88 sec    time to reach max height

h = 23.52 * 2.88 - 1/2 g 2.88^2 = 27.1 m

Assignment: Can you identify various forces and instances in which electrostatic and magnetic forces occur​
serg [7]

Answer:

Magnetic force, attraction or repulsion that arises between electrically charged particles because of their motion. It is the basic force responsible for such effects as the action of electric motors and the attraction of magnets for iron. Electric forces exist among stationary electric charges; both electric and magnetic forces exist among moving electric charges. The magnetic force between two moving charges may be described as the effect exerted upon either charge by a magnetic field created by the other.

What is the acceleration experiance by a car that takes 10s to reach 27m/s from rest
lina2011 [118]

Magnitude of acceleration = (change in speed) / (time for the change).

Change in speed  =  (27 - 0)  =  27 m/s
Time for the change = 10 s

Magnitude of acceleration =  (27 m/s) / (10 s)  =  2.7 m/s²  .
