Divers in Acapulco dive from a cliff that is 65 m high. If the rocks

Physics
1 answer:
Alex777 [14]2 years ago

Answer:

Cool question! First step is to find the time taken to fall

57

m

, then to find the horizontal velocity needed to cover

24

m

in that time. In this case the answer is

7.0

m

s

−

1

.

Explanation:

This is a less typical projectile motion question, but it's still projectile motion. This means the horizontal and vertical directions can be considered separately. We assume that the initial vertical velocity,

u

y

=

0

m

s

−

1

, and we are trying to find the required initial horizontal velocity,

u

x

.

To find the time taken to fall

57

m

:

s

=

u

t

+

1

2

a

t

2

Since

u

=

0

, we can rearrange this to:

t

=

√

2

s

a

=

√

2

⋅

57

9.8

=

3.41

s

The horizontal velocity will be constant (ignoring air resistance), so to cover

24

m

in

3.41

s

will be given by:

v

=

s

t

→

u

x

=

24

3.41

=

7.0

m

s

Calculate the resultant force acting in the opposite directions:-<br><br><br><br> answer asap
kap26 [50]

Answer:

Magnitude of the resultant force will be 20N in the direction of F_2.

Explanation:

It's given in the question that two forces have been applied on the object given.

Since force is a vector quantity, therefore, it has magnitude and direction both.

F_1=20N

F_2=40N

Both the forces are in the opposite directions.

Therefore, magnitude of the resultant force of these forces will be,

F_2-F_1=40-20

            = 20 N

And the direction of the resultant force will be towards F_2.

Therefore, magnitude of the resultant force will be 20N in the direction of F_2.

The planet Jupiter orbits the Sun at a nearly constant speed. Which of the following statements are true?
RoseWind [281]

Answer:

a. There is a force on Jupiter toward the center of the orbit.

d. Jupiter is accelerating toward the center of the orbit.

Explanation:

Let us look at each of the choices one by one:

a. There is a force on Jupiter toward the center of the orbit.

True. The sun being at the center of Jupiter's orbit, pulls the planet towards it (providing the centripetal force), therefore, there exists a force on Jupiter toward the center of the orbit.

b. There is a force on Jupiter pulling it out from the center of the orbit.

Nope. The centripetal force due to gravity acts towards the center of the orbit.  

c. There is a force on Jupiter in the direction of its motion.

Nope. There exists only the centripetal force acting towards the center of the orbit,

d. Jupiter is accelerating toward the center of the orbit.

Yes. Because of the centripetal force gravity provides, Jupiter is accelerating towards the center of the orbit, but it does not fall in because it has velocity perpendicular to the direction of its acceleration.

Justine is ice-skating at the Lloyd Center. What is her final velocity if she accelerates at a rate of 2.0 m/s for 3.5 seconds?
belka [17]

Answer:

7 m/s

Explanation:

Acceleration, a=\frac {v-u}{t}

Where v and u are the final and initial velocities of the Justine respectively, t is the time taken for Justin to attain final velocity.

Making v the subject then

v=at+u

Taking u as zero then

Substituting 3.5 for t, 2 as a then

v=3.5*2=7 m/s
