A movie stunt double is supposed to run across the top of a train (in the opposite direction that the train is moving) and just

barely jump off before reaching a tunnel, but after running the entire length of the train (starting from the front). If the train is moving at 50 km/hr, is 3 km long and the tunnel is 40 km away from the end (where the stunt double is going to jump from), how fast (in km/hr) will the stunt double need to run

Answer:

3.49km/hr

Explanation:

This train is moving at 50km/hr

Distance = length of train + distance of tunnel

= 3 km + 40 km

= 43 km

Time taken by train to get to tunnel

Time = distance / velocity

Time = 43 km/50km perhour

= 0.86

How fast will stunt double have to run?

Velocity = 3km/0.86

= 3.49 km/hr

The stunt double will have to run as fast as 3.49 kilometer per hour

Reptile [31]

Answer:

Explanation:

Apply the law of conservation of energy

$KE_i+PE_i=KE_f+PE_f$

$Gm_1m_2[\frac{1}{r_f} -\frac{1}{r_1} ]=\frac{1}{2} (m_1v_1^2+m_2v_2^2)$

from the law of conservation of the linear momentum

$m_1v_1=m_2v_2$

Therefore,

$Gm_1m_2[\frac{1}{r_f} -\frac{1}{r_1} ]=\frac{1}{2} (m_1v_1^2+m_2v_2^2)$

$=\frac{1}{2} [m_1v_1^2+m_2[\frac{m_1v_1}{m_2} ]^2]\\\\=\frac{1}{2} [m_1v_1^2+\frac{m_1^2v_1^2}{m_2} ]\\\\=\frac{m_1v_1^2}{2} [\frac{m_1+m_2}{m_2} ]$

$v_1^2=[\frac{2Gm_2^2}{m_1+m_2} ][\frac{1}{r_f} -\frac{1}{r_1} ]$

Substitute the values in the above result

$v_1^2=[\frac{2Gm_2^2}{m_1+m_2} ][\frac{1}{r_f} -\frac{1}{r_1} ]$

$=[\frac{2(6.67\times 10^-^1^1)(107)^2}{27+107} ][\frac{1}{26} -\frac{1}{41}] \\\\=1.6038\times 10^-^1^0\\\\v_1=\sqrt{1.6038\times 106-^1^0} \\\\=1.2664 \times 10^-^5m/s$

B) the speed of the sphere with mass 107.0 kg is

$v_2=\frac{m_1v_1}{m_2}$

$=[\frac{27}{107} ](1.2664 \times 10^-^5)\\\\=3.195\times 10^-^6m/s$

C) the magnitude of the relative velocity with which one sphere is

$v_r=v_1+v_2\\\\=1.2664\times 10^-^5+3.195\times10^-^6\\\\=15.859\times10^-^6m/s$

D) the distance of the centre is proportional to the acceleration

$\frac{x_1}{x_2} =\frac{a_1}{a_2} \\\\=\frac{m_2}{m_1} \\\\=3.962$

Thus,

$x_1=3.962x_2$

and

$x_2=0.252x_1$

When the sphere make contact with eachother

Therefore,

$x_1+x_2+2r=41\\x_1+0,252x_1+2r=41\\1.252x_1+2r=41\\x_1=32.747-1.597r$

And

$x_1+x_2+2r=41\\3.962x_2+x_2+2r+41\\4.962x_2+2r=41\\x_2=8.262-0.403r$

The point of contact of the sphere is

$32.747-1.597r=8.262-0.403r\\\\r=\frac{24.485}{1.194} \\\\=20.506m$

A jogger runs at a constant rate of 10.0 m every 2.0 seconds. The jogger starts at the origin and runs in the positive direction

Elis [28]

Answer:

(a) 25 m

(b) 75 m

Explanation:

Given that the jogger runs at a constant rate of 10.0 m every 2.0 seconds.

So, the speed of the jogger,

$v=\frac{10}{2}=5m/s\;\cdots(i)$

Let d be the distance covered by him in time, t s.

As distance=(speed) x (time)

So, $d=vt$

From equation (i)

$\Rightarrow d=5t\;\cdots(ii)$

As the jogger starts from origin, so, the distance, $d$ , also represents the position of the jogger at the time $t$ s.

The position-time graph has been shown.

(a) From equation (ii), for t=5.0 s

$d=5\times 5=25 m$

So, the jogger is at a distance of 25 m from the origin.

(b) Similarly, for t=15.0 s

$d=5\times 15=75 m$

So, the jogger is at a distance of 75 m from the origin.

timama [110]

Answer:

The mass of Uranium present in a 1.2mg sample is $4.8 \cdot 10^{-6}\,mg$

Explanation:

The ration between Uranium mass and total sample mass is: $\frac{4g}{1000kg} =\frac{4g}{1000000g}=\frac{1}{250000}$

For a sample of mass 1.2 mg, the amount of uranium is:

$1.2\, mg \cdot \frac{1}{250000}=4.8 \cdot 10^{-6}\,mg$
