To determine the displacement, since we are given the potential energy, we use the equation for potential energy. For a spring, it is one-half the product of the spring constant and the square of the displacement. We do as follows:
PE = kx^2/2
5 Nm = 50N/m (x^2)
x = 0.32 m
Therefore, the displacement would be 0.32 m.
Note:
The height of a high bar from the floor is h = 2.8 m (or 9.1 ft).
It is not provided in the question, so the standard height is assumed.
g = 9.8 m/s², acceleration due to gravity.
Note that the velocity and distance are measured as positive upward.
Therefore the floor is at a height of h = -2.8 m.
First dismount:
u = 4.0 m/s, initial upward velocity.
Let v = the velocity when the gymnast hits the floor.
Then
v² = u² - 2gh
v² = 16 - 2*9.8*(-2.8) = 70.88
v = 8.42 m/s
Second dismount:
u = -3.0 m/s
v² = (-3.0)² - 2*9.8*(-2.8) = 63.88 m/s
v = 7.99 m/s
The difference in landing velocities is 8.42 - 7.99 = 0.43 m/s.
Answer:
First dismount:
Acceleration = 9.8 m/s² downward
Landing velocity = 8.42 m/s downward
Second dismount:
Acceleration = 9.8 m/s² downward
Landing velocity = 7.99 m/s downward
The landing velocities differ by 0.43 m/s.
Because of gravity and friction.

See explanation
Explanation:
First, in order for you to understand, remember the basic concept of meniscus in graduated cylinder.
<em>"The meniscus is the curve seen at the top of a liquid in response to its container. The meniscus can be either concave or convex, depending on the surface tension of the liquid and its adhesion to the wall of the container".</em>
Now, according to this definition, and for water, the reading of the volume must be donde at the bottom of the curve of the meniscus. This is because the water gives a concave curve.
If you read it and matches the height of water, you are getting two results:
One, get an accurate value or volume, because it's been done at eye level.
The second fact is that when you do the reading this way, The total pressure is made equal to the atmospheric pressure by adjusting the height of the cylinder until the water level is equal.
Answer:
a)
b)
Explanation:
Given that
v(t) = 5 t i + t² j - 2 t³ k
We know that acceleration a is given as
Therefore the acceleration function a will be
The acceleration at t = 2 s
a= 5 i + 2 x 2 j - 6 x 2² k m/s²
a=5 i + 4 j -24 k m/s²
The magnitude of the acceleration will be
a= 24.83 m/s²
The direction of the acceleration a is given as
a)
b)
