At the start of his race, an 81-kg runner pushes against the starting block, exerting an average force of 1600 N . The force tha

t the block exerts on his foot points 20∘ above the horizontal. Determine the horizontal speed of the runner after the force is exerted for 0.28 s.

The force in the horizontal direction is given by 1600cos(20)=1503.5N
Given the mass of m=81kg, we can use F=ma to get acceleration
F/m=a
a=1503.5/81=18.56m/s²
The velocity is given by the integral of the acceleration, V=18.56t m/s
since t=0.28s we get
v=18.56(0.28)=5.197m/s

In February 1955, a paratrooper fell 370 m from an airplane without being able to open his chute but happened to land in snow, s
nevsk [136]

a) 0.94 m

The work done by the snow to decelerate the paratrooper is equal to the change in kinetic energy of the man:

W=\Delta K\\-F d = \frac{1}{2}mv^2 - \frac{1}{2}mu^2

where:

F=1.1 \cdot 10^5 N is the force applied by the snow

d is the displacement of the man in the snow, so it is the depth of the snow that stopped him

m = 68 kg is the man's mass

v = 0 is the final speed of the man

u = 55 m/s is the initial speed of the man (when it touches the ground)

and where the negative sign in the work is due to the fact that the force exerted by the snow on the man (upward) is opposite to the displacement of the man (downward)

Solving the equation for d, we find:

d=\frac{1}{2F}mu^2 = \frac{(68 kg)(55 m/s)^2}{2(1.1\cdot 10^5 N)}=0.94 m

b) -3740 kg m/s

The magnitude of the impulse exerted by the snow on the man is equal to the variation of momentum of the man:

I=\Delta p = m \Delta v

where

m = 68 kg is the mass of the man

\Delta v = 0-55 m/s = -55 m/s is the change in velocity of the man

Substituting,

I=(68 kg)(-55 m/s)=-3740 kg m/s

A bug splats against the windshield of a car traveling at high speeds down a backcountry road. Which statement correctly compare
zvonat [6]

Answer:

C. The bug's change in momentum is equal to the car's change in momentum.

Explanation:

As we know by Newton's 2nd law

F = \frac{\Delta P}{\Delta t}

here we have also know that when car hits the bug then force applied by wind shield on the bug is same as the force applied by the bug on the car's wind shield as per Newton's III law

F_{12} = F_{21}

so we know that

\frac{\Delta P_{12}}{\Delta t} = \frac{\Delta P_{21}}{\Delta t}

so we have

\Delta P_{12} = \Delta P_{21}

so correct answer will be

C. The bug's change in momentum is equal to the car's change in momentum.
