When people do a bungee jump theyare asked how much they weigh. Why?​

Physics
1 answer:
Katena32 [7]2 years ago
3 0

Answer:

The elasticity of the bungee cord reduces the gravitational forces applied on the body during bungee jumping. For example, if a 100-pound individual jumps from a building and encounters 900 pounds of deceleration force, they will feel 9 "G's" of force.

hopefully this'll help

have a nice day!!! :D

In the winter activity of tubing, riders slide down snow covered slopes while sitting on large inflated rubber tubes. To get to
goldenfox [79]

Answer:

17304 J

Explanation:

Complete statement of the question is :

In the winter activity of tubing, riders slide down snow covered slopes while sitting on large inflated rubber tubes. To get to the top of the slope, a rider and his tube, with a total mass of 84 kg , are pulled at a constant speed by a tow rope that maintains a constant tension of 350 N .

Part A

How much thermal energy is created in the slope and the tube during the ascent of a 30-m-high, 120-m-long slope?

Solution :

T = tension force in the tow rope = 350 N

L  = length of the incline surface = 120 m

W_{t}  = work done by tension force = ?

The tension force acts parallel to incline surface, hence work done by tension force is given as

W_{t} = T L\\W_{t} = (350) (120)\\W_{t} = 42000 J

h = height gained by the rider = 30 m

m = total mass of rider and tube = 84 kg

Potential energy gained is given as

U = mgh\\U = (84) (9.8) (30)\\U = 24696 J

Q  = Thermal energy created

Using conservation of energy

Q = W_{t} - U\\Q = 42000 - 24696\\Q = 17304 J

An 85 kg man and his 35 kg daughter are sitting on opposite ends of a 3.00 m see-saw. The see-saw is anchored in the center. If
wolverine [178]

Answer:

0.54m

Explanation:

Step one:

given data

length of seesaw= 3m

mass of man m1= 85kg

weight = mg

W1= 85*10= 850N

mass of daughter m2= 35kg

W2= 35*10= 350N

distance from the center= (1.5-0.2)= 1.3m

Step two:

we know that the sum of clockwise moment equals the anticlockwise moment

let the distance the must sit to balance the system be x

taking moment about the center of the system

350*1.3=850*x

455=850x

divide both sides by  850

x=455/850

x=0.54

Hence the man must sit 0.54m from the right to balance the system
