While running, a person dissipates about 0.60 J of mechanical energy per step per kilogram of body mass. If a 61 kg person devel
liraira [26]

Answer:

2.66m/s

Explanation:

information we have

power: 65W

work per step per kilogram: 0.60J

mass: 61kg

length of a running step: 1.5m

---------------

the formula for power is:

P=\frac{W}{t}

where W is the work and t is time.

time is also defined as: t=\frac{distance}{velocity}=\frac{d}{v}

so substituting this into the formula for power we get:

P=\frac{W*v}{d}

where v is the velocity we are looking for, d is the distance per step: d=1.5m, W is the work per step and P is power P=65W.

we know that the work per step per kilogram is:

0.60J

so to find the work per step of his whole body we need to multiply the 0.60J by the 61 kilograms of his mas:

W=0.60J*61kg\\W=36.6Jthis is the work per step of the person.

So now we can calculate the velocity using the formula for power

P=\frac{W*v}{d}

clearing for v:

v=\frac{P*d}{W}\\

and substituting known values:

v=\frac{(65W)(1.5m)}{36.6J}= 2.66m/s

What is the frequency of a radio wave with an energy of 3.686 × 10−24 j/photon?answer in units of hz?
Makovka662 [10]

To solve this problem, we have to use the formula:

E = h f

where E is total energy, h is Plancks constant 6.626x10^-34 J s, f is frequency

 

f = E / h

f = 3.686 × 10−24 J / (6.626x10^-34 J s)

<span>f = 5.56 x 10^9 Hz</span>

If a ball is thrown vertically upward with a velocity of 160 ft/s, then its height after t seconds is s = 160t − 16t^2.
White raven [17]

Answer:

400ft.    32ft/s       -32ft/s

Explanation:

In reality the gravitational acceleration is 9.81 so the quadratic coefficient of the function should be 9.81/2

Anyway for the sake of assumtion let us takes=160t-16t^2

 

ds/dt=160-32t=0

 

t=160/32= 5 seconds.

s=160*160/32-16*(160/32)^2= 400 mts

 

 

s=384 mts

160t-16t^2=384

i.e

16t^2-160t+384=0

 

t^2-10t+24=0

(t-6)(t-4)=0

t=[4,6]

we have to take t=4 because it is all the up i.e <5

 

velocity =v=ds/dt=160-32t

 

v=160-32*4=32 ft/sec still going up

 

for all the way down take t=6 whuch is >5

 

v=160-6*32=-32 ft/sec (falling down!!!)

The acceleration vector of a particle in projectile motion ________.
Alex73 [517]

Answer:

Points downward, and its magnitude is 9.8 m/s^2

Explanation:

The motion of a projectile consists of two independent motions:

- A uniform horizontal motion, with constant velocity and zero acceleration. In fact, there are no forces acting on the projectile along the horizontal direction (if we neglect air resistance), so the acceleration along this direction is zero.

- A vertical motion, with constant acceleration g = 9.8 m/s^2 towards the ground (downward), due to the presence of gravity wich "pulls" the projectile downward.

The total acceleration of the projectile is given by the resultant of the horizontal and vertical components of the acceleration. But we said that the horizontal component is zero, therefore the total acceleration corresponds just to its vertical component, therefore it is a vector with magnitude 9.8 m/s^2 which points downward.
