Integrated Concepts A basketball player jumps straight up for a ball. To do this, he lowers his body 0.300 m and then accelerate

s through this distance by forcefully straightening his legs. This player leaves the floor with a vertical velocity sufficient to carry him 0.900 m above the floor.
a. Calculate his velocity when he leaves the floor.
b. Calculate his acceleration while he is straightening his legs. He goes from zero to the velocity found in part (a) in a distance of 0.300 m.
c. Calculate the force he exerts on the floor to do this, given that his mass is 110 kg.

Answer:

a) Velocity = 4.2m/s

b) Acceleration = 2.94m/s^2

c) Force exerted on the floor= 1401.4×10^3N

Explanation:

a) Velocity,V=sqrt(2×9.8×0.900)

V= 4.2m/s

b) Vf2= V^2+2ay2

a= 4.2^2 - 0/2×3

a= 17.64/6= 2.94m/s^2

c) Newton's 2nd law indicates:

Fnet= F - mg=ma

F= m(g+a)

F=110(9.8+2.94)

F=110×12.94

F= 1401.4N

A solid uniform disk of diameter 3.20 m and mass 42 kg rolls without slipping to the ) bottom of a hill, starting from rest. If
Semenov [28]

Answer:

(A) = 3.57 m

Explanation:

from the question we are given the following:

diameter (d) = 3.2 m

mass (m) == 42 kg

angular speed (ω) = 4.27 rad/s

from the conservation of energy

mgh = 0.5 mv^{2} + 0.5Iω^{2} ...equation 1

where

Inertia (I) = 0.5mr^{2}

ω = \frac{v}{r}

equation 1 now becomes

mgh = 0.5 mv^{2} + 0.5(0.5mr^{2})(\frac{v}{r})^{2}

gh = 0.5 v^{2} + 0.5(0.5)(v)^{2}

4gh = 2v^{2} + v^{2}

h = 3v^{2} ÷ 4 g .... equation 2

  from ω = \frac{v}{r}

 v  = ωr  = 4.27 x (3.2 ÷ 2)

v = 6.8 m/s

now substituting the value of v into equation 2

h = 3v^{2} ÷ 4 g

h = 3 x (6.8)^{2} ÷ (4 x 9.8)

h = 3.57 m

Water has a specific heat of 4.186 J/g°C, and ethanol has a specific heat of 2.450 J/g°C. Based on this information, which best
arlik [135]
I think the correct answer from the choices listed above is the second option.  Based on this information, we can say that there are more molecules in a gram of water since more energy is required to raise the temperature 1 gram of water than to raise the temperature of  1 gram of ethanol.

A pump lifts water from a lake to a large tank 20 m above the lake. How much work against gravity does the pump do as it transfe
Aleonysh [2.5K]

Answer:

980 kJ

Explanation:

Work = change in energy

W = mgh

W = (1000 kg/m³ × 5.0 m³) (9.8 m/s²) (20 m)

W = 980,000 J

W = 980 kJ

The pump does 980 kJ of work.
