We have,

Jane mass is 55 kg
His body covered with 700 nails all of them having a surface area of 1.00 mm² each = 700 × 1 = 700 mm² = 700/1000000 = 7/10000

We know that,

Pressure = Force/Area

Let's calculate force as we already have area;

F = ma
F = 55 × 9.8 { Acceleration due to gravity }
F = 539 N

Now, if should she would be on 700 nails then pressure will be;

P = F/A
P = 539/7 × 10000
P = 5390000/7
P = 770,000 Pascal

And if should would be on a 1 nail only,

P = F/A
P = 539/1 × 1000000
P = 539000000 Pascal

As, you can notice yourself that the pressure will be so high with only 1 nail and because of this, nail will pass through jane's body.

What would be the escape speed for a craft launched from a space elevator at a height of 54,000 km?

Natasha_Volkova [10]

Answer: 3.63 km/s

Explanation:

The escape velocity equation for a craft launched from the Earth surface is:

$V_{e}=\sqrt{\frac{2GM}{R}}$

Where:

$V_{e}$ is the escape velocity

$G=6.67(10)^{-11} Nm^{2}/kg^{2}$ is the Universal Gravitational constant

$M=5.976(10)^{24}kg$ is the mass of the Earth

$R=6371 km=6371000 m$ is the Earth's radius

However, in this situation the craft would be launched at a height $h=54000 km=54000000 m$ over the Eart's surface with a space elevator. Hence, we have to add this height to the equation:

$V_{e}=\sqrt{\frac{2GM}{R+h}}$

$V_{e}=\sqrt{\frac{2(6.67(10)^{-11} Nm^{2}/kg^{2})(5.976(10)^{24}kg)}{6371000 m+54000000 m}}$

Finally:

$V_{e}=3633.86 m/s \approx 3.63 km/s$

A ball of radius r rolls on the inside of a track of radius R. If the ball starts from rest at the vertical edge of the track, f

meriva

Answer:

$v=\sqrt{\dfrac{10g(R-r)}{7}}$

Explanation:

Given that

Radius of track = R

Radius of ball = r

The ball can be treated as solid sphere, so

The moment of inertia of ball

$I=\dfrac{2}{5}mr^2$

When the ball reach at the lowest position then it will have both angular and linear speed.

Condition for rolling without slipping v= ωr

Form energy conservation

$mgR=mgr+\dfrac{1}{2}mv^2+\dfrac{1}{2}I\omega^2$

v= ωr

$I=\dfrac{2}{5}mr^2$

$mgR=mgr+\dfrac{1}{2}mv^2+\dfrac{1}{2}\times \dfrac{2}{5}mr^2\omega^2$

$mg(R-r)=\dfrac{1}{2}mv^2+\dfrac{1}{2}\times \dfrac{2}{5}mv^2$

$2mg(R-r)=mv^2+\dfrac{2}{5}mv^2$

$2g(R-r)=\dfrac{7}{5}v^2$

$v=\sqrt{\dfrac{10g(R-r)}{7}}$
