Responding to an alarm, a 765-N firefighter slides down a pole to the ground floor, 3.5 m below. The firefighter starts at rest

and lands with a speed of 3.8 m/s . Find the average force exerted on the firefighter by the pole.

Answer:

Explanation:

Let acceleration of fall be a .

v² = u² + 2as

v = 3.8 m /s

u = 0

s = 3.5 m

3.8² = 0 + 2 x a x 3.5

a = 2.06 m /s²

Since this acceleration is less than g , an upward force is acting on the firefighter in the form of friction . Let this force be F . Let mass of the firefighter be m .

m = 765 / 9.8

= 78.06 kg

mg - F = ma

765 - F = 78.06 x 2.06

765 - F = 160.8

F = 604.2 N .

Timed! I would really appreciate some help! thank you!

Answer:

x = 5[km]

Explanation:

We must convert the time from minutes to hours.

t=30[min]*\frac{1h}{60min}= 0.5[h]\\

We know that speed is defined as the relationship between space and time.

v=x/t

where:

x = space [m]

t = time = 0.5 [h]

v = velocity [m/s]

Now replacing:

x = 10[\frac{km}{h} ]*0.5[h]\\x=5[km]

Calculer l intensité du courant qui le traverse
MissTica

Answer:

Le calcul du courant se fait avec deux éléments : la tension et la valeur de la résistance. Courant (A) = tension (V) / résistance (Ohm) ce qui donne la formule I = U/R.

The period P of a pendulum depend on its length , mass as well as the acceleration due to gravity . Use dimensional analysis to
Savatey [412]

Explanation:

Period P has units of seconds (s).

Length has units of meters (m).

Mass has units of kilograms (kg).

Acceleration has units of meters per second squared (m/s²).

Dimensional analysis:

s = √(m / (m/s²))

Therefore:

P = k √(L/g)

where k is a dimensionless constant.

One terminal of a car battery is said to be connected to “ground.” since it is not really connected to the ground, what is meant
GalinKa [24]
This expression means that the negative terminal (-) is connected to the metal chassis or engine, which means that all voltages used for the electrical devices in the car are measured with respect to the car's chassis or engine. 
Today's vehicles have a negative ground system, which means that the vehicle's steel frame or chassis is directly connected to the negative side of the battery via the negative battery cable.
