Answer:
The person with locked legs will experience greater impact force.
Explanation:
Let the two persons be of nearly equal mass (say m)
The final velocity of an object (person) dropped from a height H (here 2 meters) is given by,
(
= acceleration due to gravity)
which can be derived from Newton's equation of motion,
Now, the time taken (say 
) for the momentum ( 
) to change to zero will be more in the case of the person who bends his legs on impact than who keeps his legs locked.
We know that,
Naturally, the person who bends his legs will experience lesser force since is larger.
The circumference of a circle is (pi) x (diameter)
The circumference of the cupcake is (pi) x (5 cm)
Halfway around is (1/2) x (pi) x (5 cm) = (2.5 pi cm) = <em>about 7.85 cm</em>
The 'why' appears up above, in the first 2 lines of this solution.
Answer:
Both are attractive as well as repulsive.
Explanation:
(Like poles repel, like charges<em> repel</em>; unlike poles attract, unlike charges <em>attract</em>).
Explanation:
The object is moving along the parabola y = x² and is at the point (√2, 2). Because the object is changing directions, it has a centripetal acceleration towards the center of the circle of curvature.
First, we need to find the radius of curvature. This is given by the equation:
R = [1 + (y')²]^(³/₂) / |y"|
y' = 2x and y" = 2:
R = [1 + (2x)²]^(³/₂) / |2|
R = (1 + 4x²)^(³/₂) / 2
At x = √2:
R = (1 + 4(√2)²)^(³/₂) / 2
R = (9)^(³/₂) / 2
R = 27 / 2
R = 13.5
So the centripetal force is:
F = m v² / r
F = m (5)² / 13.5
F = 1.85 m
Answer:
Perfectly inelastic collision
Explanation:
There are two types of collision.
1. Elastic collision : When the momentum of the system and the kinetic energy of the system is conserved, the collision is said to be elastic. For example, the collision of two atoms or molecules are considered to be elastic collision.
2. Inelastic collision: When the momentum the system is conserved but the kinetic energy is not conserved, the collision is said to be inelastic. For example, collision of a ball with the mud.
For a perfectly elastic collision, the two bodies stick together after collision.
Here, the meteorite collide with the Mars and buried inside it, the collision is said to be perfectly inelastic. here the kinetic energy of a body lost completely during the collision.
