A bungee jumper has a mass of 60kg and uses a 25m long bungee cord (unstretched length) with an elastic coefficient of 800N/m. a
KonstantinChe [14]

Answer:

a ) 2.68 m / s

b )  1.47 m

Explanation:

The jumper will go down with acceleration as long as net force on it becomes zero . Net force of (mg - kx ) will act on it  where kx is the restoring force acting in upward direction.

At the time of equilibrium

mg - kx = 0

x = mg / k

= (60 x 9.8 ) / 800

= 0.735 m

At this moment , let its velocity be equal to V

Applying conservation of energy

kinetic energy of jumper + elastic energy of cord = loss of potential energy of the jumper

1/2 m V² + 1/2 k x² = mg x

.5 x 60 x V² + .5 x 800 x .735 x .735 = 60 x 9.8 x .735

30 V² + 216.09 = 432.18

V = 2.68 m / s

b ) At lowest point , kinetic energy is zero and loss of potential energy will be equal to stored elastic energy.

1/2 k x² = mgx

x = 2 m g / k

= (2 x 60 x 9.8) / 800

= 1.47 m

Earthquakes typically occur
ICE Princess25 [194]

Answer:

<h3><u><em>Earthquakes are usually caused when rock underground suddenly breaks along a fault. This sudden release of energy causes the seismic waves that make the ground shake. When two blocks of rock or two plates are rubbing against each other, they stick a little. ... When the rocks break, the earthquake occurs.</em></u></h3>

How far away is the furthest artificial satellite orbiting earth?
rusak2 [61]
Real-time distance and velocity data is provided by NASA and JPL. At a distance of 153.88 AU (23.020 billion km; 14.304 billion mi) from Earth as of September 5, 2021, it is the most distant artificial object from Earth. The probe made successful flybys of Jupiter, Saturn, and Saturn's largest moon, Titan.

Which of these rotational quantities is analogous to mass in a linear system?
Rom4ik [11]

Answer:

d

Explanation:

i think it is rotational inertia

because analogue of mass in rotational motion is moment of inertia. It plays the same role as mass plays in transnational motion.  

hope it's right & helps !!!!!!!!!
