Sati [7]

Answer:

a) v₀ = - 164.62 m / s , c) y = 122.5 m

Explanation:

We can solve this exercise using the free fall kinematic relations.

We put our reference system on the floor, so the height of the skyscraper is y₀ = 180m and the floor level is y = 0 m

For the boy

y = y₀ + v₀ t - ½ g t²

with free fall its initial speed is zero

y = ½ g t2

For superman

y = y₀ + v₀ (t-5) - ½ g (t-5)²

how superman grabs the lot just before hitting the ground

we look for the time it takes the boy down

t = √ (2 y₀ / g)

t = √ (2 180 / 9,8)

t = 6.06 s

in the equation for superman, we clear the volume and calculate

v₀ (t-5) = -y₀ + ½ g (t-5)²

v₀ (6.06 -5) = -180 + ½ 9.8 (6.06 -5)²

v₀ 1.06 = -174.49

v₀ = - 174.49 / 1.06

v₀ = - 164.62 m / s

the negative sign indicates that the initial speed is down

b) to graph the position of the two we use the table

t (s) Y_boy (m) Y_superman (m)

0 180 180

1 175.1 180

5 57.5 180

6 3.6 10.18

see attachment for the two curves

c) calculate the height that falls a lot in the 5 seconds (t = 5)

y = -1/2 g t²

y = ½ 9.8 5²

y = 122.5 m

for this height superman has not yet left the skyscraper, so the boy hits the ground

A 12.0kg microwave oven is pushed 14.0m up the sloping surface of a loading ramp inclined at an angle 37 degrees above the horiz

Semenov [28]

Answer:

Answered

Explanation:

a) What is the work done on the oven by the force F?

W = F * x

W = 120 N * (14.0 cos(37))

<<<< (x component)

W = 1341.71

b) $F_f=\mu_k N$

$F_f=0.25\times12\times9.8$

= 29.4 N

$W_f= F_f\times x$

$W_f= 29.0\times 14 cos(37)$

W_f= 328.72 J = 329 J

c) increase in the internal energy

U_2 = mgh

= 12*9.81*14sin(37)

= 991 J

d) the increase in oven's kinetic energy

U_1 + K_1 + W_other = U_2 + K_2

0 + 0 + (W_F - W_f ) = U_2 + K_2

1341.71 J - 329 J - 991 J = K_2

K_2 = 21.71 J

e) F - F_f = ma

(120N - 29.4N ) / 12.0kg = a

a = 7.55m/s^2

vf^2 = v0^2 + 2ax

vf^2 = 2(7.55m/s)(14.0m)

V_f = 14.5396m/s

K = 1/2(mv^2)

K = 1/2(12.0kg)(14.5396m/s)

K = 87.238J
