The specialty of an athlete on the women's track team is the pole vault. She has a mass of 48 kg and her approach speed is 8.9 m
Lyrx [107]

Answer:

H = 3.9 m

Explanation:

mass (m) = 48 kg

initial velocity (initial speed) (U) = 8.9 m/s

final velocity (V) = 1.6 m/s

acceleration due to gravity (g) = 9.8 m/s^{2}

find the height she raised her self to as she crosses the bar (H)

from energy conservation, the change in kinetic energy = change in potential energy

0.5m(V^{2} - [test]U^{2}[/tex]) = mg(H-h)

where h = initial height = 0 since she was on the ground

the equation becomes

0.5m(V^{2} - [test]U^{2}[/tex]) = mgH

0.5 x 48 x (1.6^{2} - [test]8.9^{2}[/tex]) = 48 x 9.8 x H

-1839.6 = 470.4 H  (the negative sign indicates a decrease in kinetic energy so we would not be making use of it further)

H = 3.9 m

A skier of mass 82.9 kg starts from rest at the top of a frictionless incline of height 20 m. At the bottom of the incline, the
ehidna [41]

Answer: 170.67 N

Explanation:

Given

Mass of skier is m=82.9\ kg

Height of the inclination is h=20\ m

Here, the potential energy of the skier is converted into kinetic energy which is consumed by the friction force by applying a constant force that does work to stop the skier.

\Rightarrow mgh=F\cdot x\quad \quad [\text{F=constant friction force}]\\\\\Rightarrow 82.9\times 9.8\times 20=F\cdot 95.2\\\\\Rightarrow F=\dfrac{16,248.4}{95.2}\\\\\Rightarrow F=170.67\ N

Thus, the horizontal friction force is 170.67 N.

wheel rotates from rest with constant angular acceleration. Part A If it rotates through 8.00 revolutions in the first 2.50 s, h
Alex73 [517]

Answer:

x2 = 64 revolutions.

it rotate through 64 revolutions in the next 5.00 s

Explanation:

Given;

wheel rotates from rest with constant angular acceleration.

Initial angular speed v = 0

Time t = 2.50

Distance x = 8 rev

Applying equation of motion;

x = vt +0.5at^2 ........1

Since v = 0

x = 0.5at^2

making a the subject of formula;

a = x/0.5t^2 = 2x/t^2

a = angular acceleration

t = time taken

x = angular distance

Substituting the values;

a = 2(8)/2.5^2

a = 2.56 rev/s^2

velocity at t = 2.50

v1 = a×t = 2.56×2.50 = 6.4 rev/s

Through the next 5 second;

t2 = 5 seconds

a2 = 2.56 rev/s^2

v2 = 6.4 rev/s

From equation 1;

x = vt +0.5at^2

Substituting the values;

x2 = 6.4(5) + 0.5×2.56×5^2

x2 = 64 revolutions.

it rotate through 64 revolutions in the next 5.00 s
