Answer: State and explain, in terms of the forces acting,how the acceleration of the object varies during its fall. As the object is released two forces act on it. Its weight and and air resistance. At this point its weight is much greater due to the force of gravity on the object so it accelerates downward.

An 80-kg clown sits on a 20-kg bike on a tightrope attached between two trees. The center of mass of the clown is 1.6 m above th
Eduardwww [97]

Answer:

Explanation:

the center of mass formula

Ycm= [(m₁y₁) + (m₂y₂) + (m₃y₃)] / (m₁+m₂+m₃)

Rope forms the x axis and position of centre of different massses are above or below it so they represent their location on y - axis.

y₁ = 1.6 , y₂ = .7 and y₃ = - 2.1

Ycm ( given ) = - .5

Putting the values of masses and positions

- .5 = 80 x 1.6 + 20 x .7 + m₃ x - 2.1 / ( 80 + 20 + m₃ )

- .5 = 128  + 14  + m₃ x - 2.1 / ( 100+ m₃ )

- 50 - .5 m₃ = 142 - 2.1 m₃

1.6 m₃ = 192

m₃ = 120 kg .

B )

Total downward force is weight of  total mass  = 80 + 20 + 120

= 220 kg

weight = 220  x 9.8 = 2156 N .

component of weight perpendicular to rope

= 2156 cos 15 = 2082.53 N

This force will be equally distributed over each tree , so force on each tree =  2082.53 / 2 = 1041.26 N .

How long will it take for a radioactive isotope with a decay constant of 0.15 (which means a half life of 4.6 days ) to decay to
jek_recluse [69]
Radioactive decay is given by:
N = No x e^(-λt)
We know that N/No has to be 0.05
λ = 0.15
0.05 = e^(-0.15t)
t = ln(0.05)/(-0.15)
t = 19.97 days
